Even though we’ve decided to streamline our retail operation, that doesn’t mean we don’t still have some fun stuff coming in the door! Before the holiday, the Lochby “Venture Pouch” arrived. Just when I thought Lochby couldn’t get more creative with useful case design, they come up with something like this!
A Combination Pen Case and Pen Pouch/Carry-all/Stationery Dopp Kit
What makes the Venture Pouch unique is the fact that it features not one but TWO zippered pouches. On one side, there’s a “pen case” with elastics to hold pens, pencils, and other bands. While there are two sets of bands facing each other, I probably would only recommend using one side if you’re carrying pens that you’re concerned about scratching. If not, the larger bands would be useful for holding headphones, cables, and very large pens.
If you flip the pouch over, the “pen case” portion becomes the center divider for the true “pouch”. You can use either side to store pens, pencils, sticky notes, ink cartridges, highlighters, chargers and more. The mesh side pouches also have velcro closures that can be used to secure smaller items like thumbdrives and SD cards.
Takeaways and Where to Buy
I’m planning on enjoying my Charcoal Venture Pouch, and it’s accompanying me to the office today. We have a handful of Lochby Venture Pouches in stock in each color (Brown, Charcoal, or Navy Blue), priced at $44. Like all Lochby products, this strikes me as an exceptionally good value for the quality you get. In the event we run out, or if you’re looking to have these shipped internationally, you can purchase from Lochby directly.
