However, everyone's oils are a little different, and you will most likely get dirt / crud on any leather items you own. It's good to clean and condition your leather goods to make absolutely sure they last a long time!<br /><br />Tim Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17947753940866093513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-7082409371424183302013-04-10T12:10:17.522-04:002013-04-10T12:10:17.522-04:00The Boston is on offer on Filofax USA:

Smaller rings than the Malden so keeps weight down. I would also highly recommend a luxe if you can get one. They have I think 20mm rings so actually thinner than a personal but bigger pages if you get the A5. And they feel wonderful if you like textured leather. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589254083891378425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-80497824992230814992013-04-09T14:01:13.726-04:002013-04-09T14:01:13.726-04:00Erin I have a compact regency which only has one l...Erin I have a compact regency which only has one loop but I use three colours to colour code. So I put a flex pen loop into the left hand interior pocket clip one triplus liner pen on the card and next to it another in the loop itself. Then a thicker pen in the actual filofax loop. It closes fine so if the osterley is not going to work for you that should.

This includes 6 subject tabs, 2 monthly tabs, a postcard, 2 transparent fly leaves, and a top opening envelope. So depending on thickness of paper, you may be able to fit more in. My pages turn quite easily, but although I can add more, I do find that any more than this and it becomes more difficult.

The Chameleon will show wear on the edges and the clasp especially. On the other side, with all the wearing and marks, the leather ages beautifully. It will get very soft and bendable over time.
