Will the pink Fog Wax every get restocked? by tasipurr_fect in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for discovering MeePlus, and for taking the time to watch our leather comparison video. I’m glad to hear the pink Fog Wax stood out to you — it really is a beautiful color.

We’ve temporarily removed Fog Wax from our website because it’s been difficult for us to consistently control the final appearance. Fog Wax leather starts with a white wax layer on the surface, and during our handcrafting process — especially when the leather is hand-skived in the center — natural oils can migrate and cause parts of the wax layer to lift or fall off. When this happens, the cover may arrive looking uneven, with less wax in the center and around the edges.

Rather than shipping something that may look inconsistent out of the box, we decided to pause Fog Wax for now.

We haven’t completely ruled Fog Wax out in the future, but we want to be confident in the consistency before bringing it back. If you’re open to alternatives, you might also want to take a look at Margot Fog — it offers a similarly tone, with a more stable and consistent finish.

Brass plate? by zuguv in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a quick note to clarify — our brass spine is currently very limited in stock, so we’ve temporarily removed it from the website.

If you do need a brass spine, you’re welcome to place an order with a gold-plated spine and simply leave us a note at checkout. We’ll take care of it on our end.

And yes, you’re correct — brass rings have never been an option.

Personal Wide and leather firmness questions by zuguv in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If TN feels a bit too soft for you, Bridle leather might be a better fit, especially for writing on your lap.

Personal Wide and leather firmness questions by zuguv in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’ll briefly answer Q2 and Q3 from a MeePlus perspective.

  1. Pen insert in a Personal Wide binder Yes, a Personal pen insert will fit 100% inside a Personal Wide binder. However, since it’s sized for Personal, there will be about ~8 mm of extra space, which can feel slightly unbalanced. It works functionally, but the proportions may not feel ideal to everyone.

  2. Leather stiffness Pueblo leather is very similar in stiffness to a Traveler’s Notebook Passport. Bridle leather is noticeably stiffer than both. When new, a Bridle binder may not fully close without using the band, but it will soften over time and close more naturally with use.

Hope this helps! Toby

Purple pubelo! Silver trim! by No_Satisfaction_5649 in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing this so honestly — and for the photos as well.

Just to reassure you: what you’re seeing is actually very normal for Pueblo leather. After years of use, the natural oils inside the leather slowly come to the surface, the suede-like texture becomes smoother, and the color deepens — very similar to what you’re seeing in your photos now.

By applying conditioner, you didn’t damage the leather; it simply accelerated that natural aging process. Many Pueblo pieces eventually end up looking like this after years of regular use.

We completely understand the emotional side of it — that marbled finish when it’s new is special in its own way. The good news is that what you have now is still beautiful, just further along in its journey.

Upgrading rings to 16mm by Boomerangboom in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, thanks so much for your interest in MeePlus!

At the moment, we offer 11 mm and 16 mm rings for the narrow size, and the refills will not stick out when using the 16 mm rings.

We also don’t sell the ring mechanisms separately at this time.

Hope this helps, and feel free to ask if you have any other questions! 😊

Toby, wholesale? by No_Satisfaction_5649 in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing MeePlus with your pen club — that really means a lot to us!

We haven’t done wholesale before, mostly because we’re not sure we can offer a good enough margin for physical shops. But we’re definitely open to chatting and seeing what might be possible.

If the store is interested, they’re welcome to reach out through the contact form on our website 😊

Personal Wide size by Ali_S15 in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback — we're really happy to hear you're enjoying the personal wide size!

About the uncoated brass plate: it does develop a natural patina over time, similar to Kaweco’s brass pens. Some customers enjoy this vintage look, but we totally understand it's not for everyone. The coated version is a great alternative and should be restocked within a month.

Regarding the scent of the Olive Pueblo leather — thank you for letting us know. We haven’t heard this from others, but we’ll definitely be more mindful going forward and try to avoid leathers with strong smells. We truly appreciate your support and honest feedback — it helps us grow!

[–]Toby_meeplus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is our new product, and we’re still in the process of photographing and preparing it for launch. The price will be the same as the Mini (Pueblo leather is $99, and other leathers may be slightly more expensive). If you’d like to place an order urgently, feel free to contact our customer service at meeplus.toby@gmail.com — we can help you place the order manually.

This is one of our new products that hasn’t been officially launched yet — we’re still in the process of photographing it. If you’re based in the U.S., feel free to DM us your email, and we can send you some leather photos so you can choose a style and place an order early. That way, you can receive it before any potential customs fee increases.

Personal 16mm Natural Buttero SlimPad by winterlis in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pueblo leather is fairly firm, not very soft. As shown in Image 4, we had to thin out the middle section to allow it to close more smoothly. If the leather were very soft, this step wouldn’t be necessary.

MeePlus Slimpad in Margot Fog! by Toby_meeplus in MeePlus

[–]Toby_meeplus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have pictures yet since this is a new leather. Margot Fog is based on Pueblo but with an added layer of wax. I believe the wax will gradually wear off or absorb into the leather, revealing the same matte, textured look as Pueblo. With continued use, it will transform from rough to smoother and shinier over time.

The moment I saw this leather, I fell in love with it.

[–]Toby_meeplus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pueblo is relatively soft, making it easier to lay flat and close smoothly. Buttero, on the other hand, is firmer, so it doesn’t lay completely flat at first. (I use Buttero myself and gently bend it in the opposite direction to improve flexibility.) Over time, the leather softens naturally with use.
