The Nib Safety Net

"Gravity Happens. We’ve Got You Covered."

We know the heartbreak of a fountain pen hitting the floor. As a member of our Creative Rewards, you don't have to worry about the 'tines.' If the worst happens, just send us a photo and we'll send you a 50% discount for a fresh start.

"The Nib Safety Net" – Terms & Conditions

  • Eligibility: This benefit is exclusive to active members of the Creative Rewards program at the time of the accident.
  • Coverage: The 50% discount applies strictly to accidental damage (e.g., dropping the pen) that renders the nib unusable. It does not cover intentional damage, loss of the pen, theft, or normal wear and tear.
  • The Claim: To activate your discount, you must provide a clear photo of the damaged nib and your original order number to oops@yourstore.com.
  • Limitations: This discount is valid for a one-time replacement per pen purchased and applies only to the cost of the replacement nib unit. It cannot be combined with other promotional codes or used for full pen replacements.

Why Luddite

Luddite takes its name from the 19th-century weavers who resisted machines — a statement of intent from a Japanese maker that builds everyday goods from traditional materials. Its canvas comes from Kurashiki in Okayama, where heavy cotton has been woven since the late 1800s: several strands of yarn are twisted together and woven slowly on vintage shuttle looms, which is why it is so dense and hard-wearing. Its denim comes from Okayama too — the birthplace of Japanese jeans.

Choosing your case

Canvas 8-go “Bendy” — the clever one: it folds open 180° into a pen tray, with five individual loops to keep pens apart and two zip pockets for erasers, nibs and small tools. Okayama Denim — the same Bendy case in Japanese denim, which fades and softens with use like a good pair of jeans. Standard — a simple, roomy zip case in the same Kurashiki canvas, for anyone who just wants everything in one place.

Honest Note:

Canvas and denim wear in rather than staying pristine: they soften, crease and fade with use — denim especially — which is part of their character. Neither is padded or waterproof, so they are not the cases for protecting expensive fountain pens from knocks; for those, see the &Liebe leather cases

Who is it For?

• Sketchers and illustrators who carry a small working kit (Bendy)
• Anyone who wants a tough, good-looking everyday pen case
• Fans of Japanese workwear textiles

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUSTIONS (FAQ)

Which case is best for fountain pens?
