Moleskiners Post

The Carnet Challenge

Jessica Zafra compares the Moleskine® notebook with the GreenApple brand.

The Greenapple notebook looks like a Moleskine pocket carnet—from a distance. Instead of smooth black oilcloth its cover is a thicker leatherette. (Moleskine is on the left, Greenapple on the right.)

Moleskine vs. Greenapple

The ribbon bookmark is almost the same but the elastic that keeps the notebook shut is thinner, like a rubber band.

Moleskine pages vs. Greenapple pages

Inside the paper is slightly thicker, coarser, and whiter. Unlike most Moleskine facsimiles, the pages are plain, unlined. They soak up ink very well.
