By ebe...
If it's possible to fall in love with a pencil case, this one would be my eternal sweetheart. It holds a ton of pens in the main section. The inner pockets are different sizes and ultra-convenient. And iit stands up very solidly. A great product.

By smc...
Love it! The little pockets on the inside are awesome! They are perfect for my refillable dry erase markers I got from jetpens, and I love the slot to keep your one or two of your pens separate from the other stuff in the pen case! The color is fantastic!

  I have been using this..., February 13, 2013
I have been using this for about two weeks. I bought a green and an orange. The orange one is in the grips of my 5th grader, I will probably never see it again. Several people have commented on it on my desk or at meetings and that is when it is closed. They really freak out when I open it and stand it up. It has about a dozen pens and three Zebra markers along with a pair of USB drives. Everything sits inside nicely.

The one negative is that two of the three pockets along the back are shorter than the over all case. I like big pens, so most of my pens sit in the main section, not on the back side.

By msk...
A nice soothing color and surprising amounts of space inside. The lining of the inside has three "compartments" in addition to the general section in the middle. The left and right are pockets, but you can clip pens onto their outsides to get them to stay in a certain place. In the middle back is a wide pen loop big enough for two Lamy Safaris to clip on and be protected from bumps and scratches. There's also a pocket in the front just behind the zipper, but if you don't unzip it all the way, you can essentially create another mini pocket for a USB drive or pencil lead case.
  I love it, only thing..., March 1, 2012
I love it, only thing is it's a bit shinier in real life, but that's noooo problem! The quality is good and it was packaged nicely! Has little pocket to put things in or to isolate especially used pens from others, a great buy!
  I just bought this pencil..., January 13, 2012
By srm...
I just bought this pencil case and I already love it! It is hard to see in the photo, but it does have little pockets all the way around the side of the case, as well as a small pocket in the front for an eraser. There is ample room for pens/pencils, erasers, lead refills, and my flash drive. The pockets help keep everything organized.

I had a slight issue getting it to stay upright at first, but if you fold the top back slightly it works great. You will not be disappointed with this case if you choose to purchase it!

By myb...
This pen case is SWEET. I store over 48 colored pencils, an eraser and tiny pencil sharpener. It is full with enough room to easily close it. We usually dump the pencils out to use them, but it truly does stand up if you fold back the top properly. The green is so cheerful yet soft.

I love this pen case. I hold 3 brush pens, 4 rollerball pens, a hi-liter, a fountain pen, two mechanical pencils, a block eraser, a knock eraser, lead, and cartridges for my fountain pen in it and there is still room! I could easily fit five or six more pens in it. It is easy to carry around and looks good. I love the colour too! The material is very nice as well.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
Very roomy! Ten pens take up less than half the capacity, but maybe this means that I need more pens?

Dimensions are ~8 x ~3.5 inches.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
I've bought numerous pencil cases, and this one tops the list for ease of use, generous and ample opening and closure, full bodied to hold more than a dozen pencils, an eraser and a sharpener.

I get it for a budding artist, my 7 year olld grand-daughter and she will be taking it to school and using it at home.

It stands up and holds its shape regardless of how full or empty it is.

A real winner.

I love this case. It holds a *lot* -- I carry pens, pencils, refills, erasers, markers, and even a flash drive. Everything is nicely protected while being carried in my backpack, and it stands up on the desk very nicely.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
I love how this case sits upright so that when I put my pens (especially my fountain pens) into it I don't they sit point/nib down. Also the design allows me to see all the instruments I've got in there so I don't have to shuffle around for what I need. Fits great into my backpack and easy to grab when I need to carry it by itself. Good buy!

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
Nice case with reasonably large capacity; I have around 15 pens in there and it's not full yet (we'll see how it goes when my next shipment arrives). Bit flimsy when it's standing up but nothing that significantly impairs functionality.

This pencil case has a nice summer color and it is light-weight. The case does not look very large, but it holds al lot of pens. My experience is: Jetpens always ships fast.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
This is a great case. It makes having lots of pens and pencils less of a hassle. The pockets on the inside are great for oganizing lead containers, erasers, etc, and having it stand up makes it so easy to find the pen I'm looking for. The outside also feels really nice.

  Two important notes about..., November 9, 2012
By milutz
This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Beige
Two important notes about the VS-01 standing case "Beige".

One:

The fabric has a metallic reflection to it. In normal light it looks much more gold then it does beige (or canvas, which is what I was thinking it was going to be). As a result, I would describe it as having the look of a "woman's accessory" and it might cause you to get some some wierd looks if your a guy. I'm planning on passing mine on and buying a black case to replace it.

Two:

The zipper is one piece (its a big "U", not two separate halves) and is closed when the pull is at the top of the case (which is the bottom of the "U", so to speak). That means if you have loose pens they bump up on the opening between the pull and the "U" of the zipper and can slowly work the case open, if shaken around enough.

With all that said, I still like the case, and am planing on buying a black one.

By kfr...
This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
I'm not sure why I bought this, but I did and it's the most used item I have. Right now there are 22 pencils, 2 erasers and a thing of Pentel lead in it and it still has a good amount of room in it. It's lasted me over 2.5 years now, even though the white part is stained a bit and the cream interior became acquainted with a leaking Preppy fountain pen. Mine used to stand even when it was empty, but it lost its shape a bit due to heavy abuse (it would literally end up underneath and in between 3 heavy textbooks). When filled with pens though, it stands up without much problem.

I'd say compared to previous cases I've owned, this one has stood up very well and is worth the 9 dollars. It looks smart and works smart and is pretty durable.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
It's an awesome portable pen cup! Unzip it halfway, fold down the top flap, and it keeps all your writing gear at easy reach.

It does go a bit floppy if it isn't zipped up to where it's folded over, or if it's holding only a few pens. And I wish all the pockets along the back were full-height, to better organize pens. But it's great at its core function as a pen cup that you can transport around.

This review is from Nomadic VS-01 Virgo-Attrezzo Standing Pen Case - Black
This pencil bag is just absolutely WONDERFUL! I would totally recommend getting it. It holds a lot of pens, and the little pocket on the front can fit erasers. The sides of the bag could hold lead, ink, etc. I was surprised when I got it because it was larger than I expected. Fits a lot of things. Definitely get it if you're looking for something that can hold a lot but not be too bulky. Did I also mention it stands up straight?
