I anticipate criticism and outrage in response to this piece, but Moleskine has become the industry standard notebook, for better or worse, throughout the years. Moleskine notebooks, first and foremost, come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and configurations. The design is minimal and sleek overall. No one can really hate them even if they try. To put it mildly, they are unadorned. Plus, you can find them almost anywhere. The airport, the bookshop, the coffee shop, and your favorite boutique all sell them.

The final straw was a remark someone made recently, which seemed to imply that the paper used in the Cahier, Volant, and regular Moleskine Notebooks was of a different quality.

Okay, now I have a question that needs answering.

So, I went to the Barnes & Noble near me and picked up a brand new copy of each in the regular large format. I was concerned that older versions, which could have been printed on lower-quality paper and were just lying on my shelf, might be missing. The thinness of Moleskine paper made it an easy choice for me while shopping for blank notebooks; I frequently utilize guide sheets. All the Moleskine notebooks come with a variety of colorful covers, but I opted for the classic black. Seeing that I was unable to get a black version of the Cahier, I opted for the next best color, which was a neutral grey.

Similarly, I tried out the 2016 week-on-two-pages planner with a soft cover that I purchased from Jenni Bick. My test hypothesis for using the planner as a wacky variable is that the printing process adds a coating to the paper that may affect ink adhesion.

It's not that I think Moleskine notebooks will magically become perfect for writing with a fountain pen or anything like that, but I know plenty of readers who don't require paper that works well with a fountain pen 24/7. And while we love our Baron Figs, Field Notes, and Word Notebooks, there are many more that we use frequently but which do not accommodate fountain pens as well as we would like.
