Here's an update from Mark Dwight (Rickshaw's Founder & CEO) on his progress to make a case for Moleskiners.  His messenger bags will be available online in about 3 weeks' time, do check out his beautiful web site and sneak peek on some of the very distinct designs.  In the mean time, please comment on the Moleskine case by posting on this or youtube site or email to him directly.  I will meet him at NYSS/ICFF next week to check out the actual sample.

Just a quick note to record what's going on following up the M.bian Moleskine Case - an abandoned project and Responses to M.bian Moleskine Case posts.  Thanks to Armand who posted my M.bian case to Moleskinerie, in addition to the responses to my vox blog, I found many responded to the Moleskinerie posts as well like here and here.  Anyway, I will ask a friend of mine to make a leather version of it just for fun.  Update you guys later.

Interestingly, my site traffic shows significant increase from U.S. visitors after Armand's post.  This shows something about Moleskinerie and my site traffic source.  Oh I got many Japanese visitors as well, thanks for coming!  :)

Wow, the response is great, thanks you all Moleskine fans for the support of the idea.  Here's some more pictures taken in 2005 to quench your thirst.

The limited edition Moleskine was bought from Japan a few years ago, you can never find them anymore.  This just shows how black is not just black.  With help of patterns, black is beautiful.
Yup, Reporters can be used like this, just like a Rhodia pad in a notepad cover.  Although I don't like the Reporter format and prefer to use traditional pocket Moleskine horizontally, I found this horizontal pocket can be a double feature: a pocket by itself or a holder for Reporter.
Anyway, I am doing all these just for the fun of it and the love of Moleskine.  Most of all, make something useful for myself.  Your responses are tremendous, thanks again!  My full time job takes most of my energy but I'm glad you all like it so much.  Still a larger MOQ is required to get the price down to a level I myself will buy, not to mention that a product which supports a gloabl product like Moleskine will have world-wide demands I can't refuse, so I definitely won't do it in smaller quantity and limited offer, it hurts people you know :)  Not a perfectionist but I still want it to have more asthetic value and material in higher quality.  Takes time, which I don't have.
