Showoff My reading and note-taking carry
Just wanted to share my setup for a wallet (4 cards) + Field Notes pocket notebook + pen + Xteink X4 e-reader daily carry. This setup primarily works because the Bellroy Notebook Cover has a relatively flat surface on the left side which allows the X4's magnet adhesive to securely stick. And the pen loop is the standard-sized Leuchtturm loop.
I put this setup together to build the habit of carrying around a pocket notebook. Since my wallet is always on me (more so than my phone), it made sense to pair the two together. And because I often want to jot down notes while reading, adding the X4 to the setup made sense for my use case.
I will often detach the X4 for a lighter hand while reading around the house or while commuting on the bus/subway.
