Can I store large urushi lacquer pens like the Pilot Custom Urushi?
Yes, we can design cases to accommodate large urushi lacquer pens such as the Pilot Custom Urushi.(We’re planning to renew the Pen Suit Ceora 3-slot case to accommodate the Pilot Custom Urushi.)
For tailor-made orders, please let us know the specific pen model you intend to store. We’ll adjust the internal structure accordingly, including the clip angle and overall dimensions.
Please note that some standard models may be a tight fit for oversized pens.
Are there any precautions when using ST.SHELTER products?
Vegetable-tanned leather, being a natural material, may be sensitive to heat and humidity. However, it performs well under normal conditions.
For storage, we recommend keeping it in a cool, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight and high humidity.
Is a pouch included with the product?
Pouches are sold separately. However, they are included as a complimentary gift with select models:
Pen Shelter Themes, Pen Shelter Classy, Pen Suit Classy, Pen Suit Ceora, and Pen Museum Ceora.
Could the lining cause scratches on my pen?
No. All ST.SHELTER products use a high-performance fabric in the pen compartment that is low-friction and non-staining.
It is specifically designed to prevent scratches or ink transfer, making it safe for delicate writing instruments like fountain pens.
What should I do if ink gets on the lining?
The lining used in ST.SHELTER products is a functional fabric that can be gently cleaned with water or alcohol.
First, blot the ink with a dry towel, then use a wet tissue to wipe away any remaining stain.
Please be careful not to let water or alcohol soak into the leather beneath the fabric during cleaning.
Can leather contact with metal pen parts cause oxidation or discoloration?
Yes—after tanning, residual sulfur compounds in leather may negatively affect metal, potentially causing tarnish or corrosion.
To prevent this, please avoid direct friction between metal parts and unfinished leather.
At SHELTER, all pen compartments are lined with functional fabric and reinforced with an inner filter layer that blocks residual sulfur.
You can use our products with confidence—even with finely finished, high-end pens.
Are XS or S size modular pen beds compatible with the Pen Suit series?
The Pen Suit series supports only HS, L, and XL modular pen beds.
Due to structural limitations, smaller sizes such as XS and S cannot be produced with sufficient stability and are therefore not available.
That said, the Pen Suit series is engineered with a dual-wall structure and box stitching for superior protection.
The pen contact surface is finished with a scratch- and stain-resistant fabric, ensuring secure storage even without a pen bed.
Even if you feel slight movement with the HS size, rest assured that your pen is still well protected.
