    Get one , two if you're naughty

    I bought a medium notebook holder to hold my truck driver log book , it's way to big but also way to cool , I may have to get me a side pocket duffle bag next in the same color .

    Graduation Gift

    Just received a Chestnut Medium Notepad Holder purchased for my daughter's law school graduation. Very pleased with the design & outstanding quality. Purchased a Large Classic Briefcase for myself last year after numerous years looking at various brands. Saddleback Leather delivers !!

    Beautiful, but not functional

    I love Saddleback leather. I have 2 wallets, the medium padfolio, and the large Moleskine cover. The padfolio is beautiful, but it is WAY overbuilt. It is like 2" thick with a legal pad and weighs a ton. That and the fact that you can't really use the side pockets effectively (as other reviewers have commented on) make it more a "show piece" IMO. I realize the leather has to stretch and "wear in" like with the wallets, but we're talking about a padfolio here. It's going to take years to stretch those inner pockets. I modified mine by basically turning it into a notepad and file folder "taco". I essentially removed all of the pockets/stitching/rivet so that it is just the leather cover. It's no longer a padfolio, but rather a very handsome pad/folder cover. Yeah, it has empty stitching holes and stuff can slide out, but it still looks awesome (I still get compliments) and I can shove whatever I need in it in a hurry (especially in and out of my Timbuk2 messenger bag). It's way more functional now IMO. Dave, if you can make a padfolio that's not as thick and has more functional pockets, please do. I'll be the first to purchase it. Keep up the great work

    Medium Chestnut Notepad Holder hits the mark

    While I don't use notepad holders in practice generally, and have a few cheapo pleather versions from vendors, boards, conferences, etc., I frankly wanted another excuse to get some more SB leather. Plus they treated me very well in squaring away the right briefcase for me (Collete, Rachel, Renee, Kate) and I wanted to show my appreciation. Justified it that it would make an impression in client meetings where an 8 x 14 is normally all I have with me. This is perfect. The med. chestnut is well-constructed, stiff (not thin, as some have commented here), holds an 8x11 pad, has 2 pockets for a few more papers, a pocket for my business cards and another for those of the people with whom I am meeting. It might also fit an iPad Air. We'll see. It's 25% off with a small mark on the front, but worth the discount and I will surely mark it up more. Not sure I would have purchased one at full price, beautiful as it is. It folds easily and is elegant in the best sense, while not being metro. The dark pigskin lining against the chestnut, which is really more deep, rich brownish red, looks great. It also matches my chestnut front pocket briefcase, wallet, etc. Though I might have chosen Tobacco for casual use, the chestnut gives a business look and I don't want to carry notepad holders when the day is done. Also, sheepishly, if you are honest with yourself and look at Dave Munson's personality list under each color category, I think you will find your match. At least, I did. (Except the dog part, Dave. I like dogs, we have two and have had many more! We aren't that bad!) Another pen holder just above existing one would have been great, but that is minor. Some say a strap or closure would be nice. Not so. It would ruin the simplicity and clean appearance of the front. Some also say its heavy or that the pockets are too tight. Not a chance -- it's perfect. If you are on the fence, just do it. Keep them thick and sturdy, Dave, and your customer service is great and makes your company. Now how about some SB watch bands and tough gloves, hmmm....
