  I originally wanted to..., January 11, 2011
I originally wanted to the the PE-08 , but it was out of stock and school was starting back up soon. So I went with this little guy, I got the blue one. When I got it, I kind of wished I got the orange but the inside of the blue is a very vibrant orange. Its soooo attractive. I love how I can cover the thing in little pins that I support and there is a lot of room inside. I can hold 1 16 edged eraser, a kneaded eraser and a normal block eraser, one pencil sharpener. 5 Micron pens, 2 normal sized pencils, one pilot Dr.Grip, 1 Uniball fusion, and a normal pen as well as a 6 inch ruler, and my house key and flash drive in this little thing! Its perfect, and very very mobile =]

I do not regret buying it AT ALL. Buy this!

By yug...
Great case! it fits all of my pencils and is very mobile. Contrary to what the description says, it is actually orange, not yellow, just like the picture shows. My only complaint is that the pocket that is in the middle which is intended for containers of lead makes the the case very stiff on the side when there is lead in it, and it is harder to close the case; you could easily just put the lead in one of the many other pockets this case has, though

  This is such a great..., July 28, 2011
This is such a great case. When in school, i use it to carry pens/pencils (of course) but when i travel, it's my makeup case. The pen slots are fantastic for brushes (especially with the plastic liner thing at the top is great for my gel eyeliner brush!) and so many makeup products come in tube form, i keep eyeliner, mascara, lip glosses, lipsticks, eyeshadow (the cream kind) in the slots. And even a spray hand sanitizer! On the flat parts i keep my eyeshadow palette! LOVE Love love it!!

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
All the pictures are accurate to this product. I was expecting the material to feel a bit more fabric-like on the inside, however it is very sturdy as far as I can tell. It is spacious enough as mine is now comfortably fitting four pens, a small packet of index tabs and one 3pack of eraser refills on one side of the open bag and one mechanical pencil, my little box of duck-shaped paper clips and a medium sized square manual eraser with a piece of paper stuck in one of the compartments, while the small middle compartment holds a container of lead refill. The outside pocket has a pen, a mechanical pencil and a highlighter. All of which I have fitted without any strain on the material. It could hold a few more pencils with a bit of stretch, but I currently have no need for it too. It is worth the price, and if I had the chance to do it over again, I would have this one.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
Awesome pencil case! Very compact, good color, good quality zipper, and lots of convenient compartments. The front pouch can hold up to six cases of lead including erasers! Although it is a tad smaller than i had expected, it still stores writing/drawing supplies very nicely. Very organized pouch, very smooth, and VERY good for traveling purposes. Overall, i really like it. A good choice for someone whose looking for a very high quality and
ok-priced pencil case.

Received this as a gift and love it. Great space, orderly and well designed. And I don't feel silly pulling this out of my bag with everyone looking. Solid buy (gift).

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
I received this pencil case a couple days ago and so far I love it! It is slightly smaller than I expected it to be, which may not be good for some, but is a good thing for me since I tend to carry unnecessary things when a case is larger than I need. So far (in the main pocket) I have put 3 pens, the KUM brand Pencut scissors, a mechanical pencil with an added pencil grip (to help with carpal tunnel), 2 packs of pen refills, and an eraser with a some extra room to spare. The material reminds me of what windbreaker jackets are made out of, sturdy but not as waterproof (or dorky). It seems reasonably durable and with further use I will have to see if it is easy to clean off or not. I am very happy with my purchase and am even considering stocking up since I am sure I will use this beyond repair. I would recommend this to anyone that just needs to carry around ~5-9 pens with 1-3 small accessories.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
I've been using this case for more than two years now, and I love it. It is a great size for carrying inside my messenger bag, and holds everything that I tend to use on a daily basis. It comfortably fit ten pens and pencils of varying sizes, a polymer eraser, and some extra ink and pencil lead with a little bit of room to spare. It is durable and offers a good level of protection for my pens and pencils, though it is constructed of soft material. I am not overly gentle, and the case shares the messenger bag with several notebooks, heavy textbooks, an iPad, and graphing calculator. Despite this there are no signs of wear and tear on the case.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
One of the best cases I've ever used; however, the mesh in the front does rip rather easily. I was leaving a class and put a pen in their ball point up on accident and when I opened it up later I noticed it ripped the mesh rather easily.

I'd recommend just be careful about how you use the front part.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
I love JetPens, but I'm returning my PE-06 because in my opinion it isn't worth the $14 price. That's almost what a superb mechanical pencil costs and more than half the price of a great fountain pen, both of which I bought from JetPens. This product is a nylon pouch with two zippers and a few pockets. I like the design but not the execution. Interesting that the label reads, and I quote, "Nomadic. For budget and save money." This product misses the mark.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Light Green
QUALITY, I bought this in the green color, its darker than the picture and less pastel looking which I like the actual look better, the actual color is very close to the jetpens website buttons (at least on my monitor) the easy access compartment is the No.1 reason to get this pen case, its about the same dimensions as a checkbook (fatter of course, and slightly longer) it holds all your favorites, and I highly recommend this case.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Light Green
I've been trying to find a case that would give me easy access to all my pencils, pens and any other tool I might need in the course of taking notes in my engineering classes. My usual kit involves a full set of Pilot Eno colored mechanical pencils, a couple of regular mechanical pencils, a stick eraser, an ink pen and a ruler. What I'd tried to use up to this point was a small pencil bag, a clear makeup bag and some goofy blue wrist purse bag thing.

I had two big problems with those types of containers. One, is that I'd have to dig to get what I want out of the bag which meant I'd miss part of the lecture while I found what I was looking for. Two, I'd dump everything out on the desk, which is kind of tiny, and risk dropping one or more pencils to the floor and out of reach. I was to the point of drawing up my own plans for a case to fit my needs, even if it would be a challenge to my very amateur sewing skills. That said, I'd been looking at Jetpens pencil cases for a while before going ahead and ordering the Nomadic PE-06 as it was the closest to what I'd been envisioning.

I just got it in today and, while it isn't everything I want in a case, I think it'll fit the bill quite nicely for now. I'm able to get all eight Eno's inside the case, along with all of their spare lead containers (there's a nice little pocket down the center spine of the case for the spare graphite lead container). I'm also able to get the stick eraser and a Varsity disposable fountain pen in there. On the outside is another pocket with a center zip for access. I'm not using it as shown on the website as I've overstuffed this enough that my Lamy Safari and a graphite mechanical pencil are held rather securely by just sliding it in the pocket - that makes for quicker access anyway as they're my most used tools.

While there a couple things that I would change on this to make it the absolute most perfect pencil case ever, I'm pretty happy with it at the moment as everything I need is easily accessible. I might even get another one and use it as my sketch kit.

A couple of photos:

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Light Green
I love this case i bought it to hold the many pencils and pens i have. though if you have more than 15 different things i would not recommend it. other tan that it is a great pencil case. the clear pocket is for an eraser and it works well for that purpose it also has a tiny pouch in the center where it folds for a lead container which i think comes in handy.
the front easy access pouch can hold 3 pens or pencils and is a pretty cool design.
i love this case and would highly recommend it to someone who doesn't have a lot of things to put in it.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Light Green
This Pencil case works extremely well. Now, instead of opening my binder, then opening a pencil bag, then digging through it and eventually taking everything out of it, I can open this very sleek pencil bag and find an easy-open slot for frequently used pens. The only things I don't like are listed:

1) If ink gets on it, though luck buster.
2) The small plastic window on the inside has a slighly bad design, personally, I would have benefited more from and extra pocket.
3) It's a little difficult to get pens and pencils out the frequent/easy open pocket.

Aside from that, everythings going great.

This review is from Nomadic PE-06 Side Zipper Pencil Case - Black
This pencil case is silly. The pen pockets are too wide for a single pen and too small for two pens, nor are they tall enough to reach the pen clip. So you're left with pens falling out of their holders.
