Hello pen friends,
My name is Long Le from Otis Handmade, Vietnam.
Some of our pen lovers at Otis have just made a fabric pen case for their daily carry fountain pens and many people ask us to bring the case to the public. We have decided to run a project for Single pen Kimono and Pen Wrap. Before we introduce the products to the world, we would like to hear from the pen community for what people want for their pen case.
Here is the Single pen Kimono prototype. We use Japanese cotton for the exterior and US cotton for the interior. The kimono can eaily hold the Conklin Duragraph (Length: 140mm capped; Cap max diameter: 15mm). The bigger pen can also go with this Kimono and the smaller will not get lost.

The cord and the lock ball are also imported from Japan.
We will upload the 4-pen-wrap case as soon as the prototype is ready.
Update 23Jul, here is the 4-pen-wrap prototype. The pen wrap is 25x25cm, the slot is 3.5cm each. However, we are not really happy with this version and will soon update.

Kindly let us know what you expect from the Kimonos so that we could alter the current design before mass production. We will sell them online via Etsy and Amazon US.
Thank you for your time. Feel free to contact me, should you need anything.
