At the counter they had these leather look notebooks, and i bought one. What i liked about it was that only every 2nd page has lines, the other side is blank. So whenever you open the book, the left page is blank and the right one is lined. This is the prefect mix of the ruled and plain styles. <br /><br />I used to carry around with me a large moleskine sketchbook (with the thicker pages) and then a medium lined piccadilly for writing in, and this book replaced both. (remember that moleskine &#39;large&#39; and piccadilly &#39;medium&#39; are the same size)<br /><br />I found this review when looking for where to buy one of these. According to the piccadilly website there are extra ISBNs for the red and black leatherlook with the alternating pages.<br /><br />If anybody is interested in having a plain page and ruled pages in one book, i highly recommend this one, as for me it meant i only had to carry around one book instead of two. Unfortunately i havent been able to find another shop that sells them, and have had to go back to the two-book system.<br /><br />If anybody know who stocks these in Australia i&#39;d really like to know.<br /><br />email me: mitchell dot benham at mail dot eemitchellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479932329694348298.post-60354470304621164122009-06-25T11:03:39.138-04:002009-06-25T11:03:39.138-04:00Captain - <br /><br />Whether or not the paper in each is 100g, it&#39;s not the same. But take note that Inkophile received a Leatherlook journal that had different paper in it than the one I received and she experienced feathering &amp; bleeding. I don&#39;t know what to tell you.Biffybeanshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08931361651065406583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479932329694348298.post-88137039787196424442009-06-25T06:12:06.918-04:002009-06-25T06:12:06.918-04:00Hi, Stephanie.<br /><br />I just wondering about Leatherlook Journal paper is the same that Wire-O Journal paper.<br />Picadilly&#39;s web said that is the same paper: 100gsm Wood Free Paper.<br /><br />I always read your excellent reviews and I remember you said that Wire-O Journal paper suffer some feather effect... but not Leatherlook paper.<br /><br />I&#39;m a little confused.<br />I like thick paper and Picadilly&#39;s Leatherlook Journal looks great... but I hate feathering.<br /><br />I need your help...Captain Bryanthttp://www.estudiodedia.com/wordpress/personal/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3479932329694348298.post-3059042535188935292009-06-24T08:15:56.776-04:002009-06-24T08:15:56.776-04:00This is one I&#39;d love a follow up review discussing how the cover held up under regular usage. I have reservations about the roughness of the stitching. I&#39;m also curious about paper consistency, since you received double sided and Inkophile got single sided. But 100g paper is certainly tempting, especially given the price point.Beth T Irwinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05250245555272009783noreply@blogger.com
