Great overview. I do have a question. Do you think that a Hobonichi Cousin would fit in the A5 size? I am currently looking at covers for my 2024 Cousin and have been intrigued by the Roterfaden holders. But the notebook is a bit on the pricey side and I want to be sure that it would fit before purchasing. Thanks so much for your input.
It should but I don't know that you would be able to use all three of the clips. I've used mine to hold a Nanami Paper Seven Seas Writer (which is an A5 Tomoe River notebook), and though it pushes the limit of the binder as a multi-refill notebook it does fit.
Nice video. Just wanted to add that the vegan version uses very nice materials inside and out. None of this plastic-y inferior feel nonsense you get with many products.
Thanks so much! I've found that they really try to do a good job with all of their products and use the best materials they can get while keeping the price somewhat reasonable for the craftsmanship.
With respect. that red band has actually damaged the shape your A5 notebook. Apparently, they cannot take simple measurements, keeping the contents of your notebook secure without damage to the outline of the notebook itself...my A5 notebook covers are hand made for me to my specification and the man who makes them for me is a true professional and a gentleman. I honestly think you deserve much better!!
Always an interesting system, but it isn't very elegant. Those thick covers also make it seem quite bulky. In this day when people love to chunk-up their binders it seems like a bulky one like this is limiting. I'm curious. May need to see it in person.
I'm not sure it's intended to necessarily be "elegant," (depending on how you use that term), but it's definitely a durable, easy to use way to keep multiple notebooks together and swap them out frequently, as I do.
@@TheGentlemanStationer The system is elegant. The entire of idea of using the clips is quite brilliant, but the materials are rough/industrial/utilitarian. It's not elegant in the aesthetic sense.
I’ve been using Roterfaden system for a while now and use both A5 and A6 that I travel with. I have to tell you I do find them absolutely beautiful and a pleasure to use. The A5 SO_22 in smoke blue and honey interior is gorgeous. people always ask where I got it from. You have to see it in person to appreciate its quality. The A6 in black leather is well made but more utilitarian, which is fine with me. Quality stuff.
this is my conclusion as well. all this material definitely is more for the purpose of material looks. seen comments about how the clips get in the way. overall with all these notebook covers that promote grouping multiple notebooks, it seems more likely to take out the notebooks to use them, than to use it as one connected tome. and i feel the clips will be annoying over the long haul, having to individually remove both clips compared to just a string where you just pull the book out. but it certainly looks cool at first glance.
You don't consider Roter Faden a system, because they don't sell proprietary inserts? Have you even looked at their shop? If the Taschenbegleiter isn't a system, I don't know what is. There's a wide varity of calendar, notebook, planner and sketchbook booklets, in three formats, designed as inserts for the Taschenbegleiter. Strange that you would make a whole video on a product you didn't even look into.
Actually, we carry the full line of Taschenbegleiter inserts and notebooks in our shop. You certainly can use Roterfaden as a "system," but for purposes of my discussion, what I meant was that if you buy a Taschenbegleiter, you're not locked into their "system" and can use what you like as long as it's generally A4/A5/A6 sized. Apologies for any confusion.

You've just introduced me to the A4 version of the Roterfaden and I am THRILLED: I NEED your set up for the same reasons you do.....wow thanks
Thank you so much for a comprehensive review! I enjoyed the video
Thanks for sharing and for bringing the A4 Roterfaden to my attention.
The A4 one looks amazing! I want one, Not sure If there's worldwide shipping, but it is sold out anyways.
Nice overview and example of how to utilize.
I bet a Rhodia notepad would fit in the back being they are a bit smaller than the A5.
Excellent video, I think I am sold on this design. Thanks
Good call!
Great overview, looks like a very functional way to keep different types of notebooks together.
I think so too!
What are those two fountain pens on the velvet tray? They are so beautiful!
the one on the far right in particular, by me...
They are both Schon DSGN Full-Size Fountain Pens. One in Ultem (on the left) and one in "Rainbow Sprinkles" anodized aluminum!
Appreciated the great review.
Thanks for watching!
It’s fabulous to hear you are carrying the RT. Next time I am shopping for one I’ll check your site.
Great video. what brand/type of pen of pen do you have in that first planner?

@@TheGentlemanStationer Thank you so much for your kind response. I think I will pass on it for now.
Nice chronograph. What brand? At first I thought that it was a Panerai chronograph
It’s actually a 20+ year old Breitling! I just got it back from service (ouch) and it’s running like new again.
Do they make a B5 size? I’d like one to hold my Stalogy Editor 365 notebook I use as a daily log for work.
I don't think they do at the moment. They did recently release a B6.
@@TheGentlemanStationer Thanks for the info! I hope they release a B5 one day. Nice B5 covers are hard to find.

This is a level of snobish I never imagined seeing.......
Lol
