The whole cover does seem too bulky to me, but I like keeping things as simple as possible. Do you feel like the elastic band is in a strange place? To me it just does not make sense, it seems difficult to open and close. It seems like a very nicely made product, but just not the most practical and useful in all aspects. It does not seem like there is one right product on the market however.

He wound up one on Amazon for less than $20 just to kind of see what he does and does not want in a cover before spending more on a nice leather one, and so far really likes his cheap one! It just came yesterday however, so he may change his mind.
I use this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BBNNYGW/ref=s9_acsd_hps_bw_c_x_7_w
and I could actually hold 2 notebooks in it, so currently I have my old one and my new one held tgt.. its bulky but i get to draw in my new one whenever i feel inspired. and migration takes forever right? lol..
Hi! Boyfriend here. I just recently got this one on Amazon (along with a few others to try out) and I have been using it for a couple of days. I'm a big fan!
My only complaint so far is the same complaint I would have with any case, I'm sure: it looks like I'm carrying around a bible and my girlfriend calls me a Mormon all day. It's not the worst fate because I feel more organized!
