Review: Vintage Zakka Roll Up Pen Case

Submitted by  Teoh Yi Chie on  November 26, 2014 - 10:08 am

This is one of those random things I buy from eBay. I better stop that to help my wallet. LOL.

I was enticed by the product image. And it's extremely affordable as well at just USD $2 including shipping.

I don't think there's any brand. According to Wikipedia, Zakka (from the Japanese 'zak-ka'（雑貨）or 'many things') is a fashion and design phenomenon that has spread from Japan throughout Asia.


The little Singer sewing machine emblem at the end of the string is nice. Not sure what the string is made of but it doesn't feel very strong, as in with strength you can actually pull it apart.


Canvas quality on the outside is fine, tough. On the inside, slightly thinner cloth is used. You can probably put about 7 pens inside.


Actually for USD $2, I don't have much complaints except that it feels a bit cheap on the inside. But it's a highly functional roll up pen case.

Previously, I had reviewed the Delfonics Roll Up Pen Case which is great but it also cost about 10 times more.
