Found a Good Pipe Pouch for a Great Price...

EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) - Bob

I've been looking for a decent size genuine leather pipe pouch to hold all the necessities and not have to take out a second mortgage for payment. Finally began thinking outside the box and found exactly what I've been searching for. Cost: under $20. and hand made with YKK zippers. That little touch was what actually led me to check this wonderful pouch out.
The company is Moonster (not Monster) and is offered on Amazon. The pouch is listed as a make-up case, but should be called a pipe pouch for sure! Exterior is very nicely finished Buffalo leather, YKK Zippers as mentioned, and excellent quality craftsmanship. Size is perfect at 8 x 3 x 3...long enough for all but churchwarden pieces and roomy enough to fit pipes and a tin. The company gives a portion of sales to charity. Please excuse the poor photo - I am not a professional photographer!

What do you think about the lining? I know a lot of tobacco pipe pouches have special linings from felt to other special materials to either protect your pipes and/or keep your tobacco fresh.

Funny-- I have one of their journal leather bound books or at least the same version they are selling. It's pretty decent though I am not a fan of books I cannot replace or add paper.
Thx again

Ah, then you need a Midori style journal cover.

One thing to consider with leather goods is that they be not chrome-tanned, or if they are that they have chrome-free lining, specially if you're gonna use them to carry stuff you're gonna put in your mouth or eat or smoke.

Ideally, tobacco pouches/compartments must be lined with food-grade mylar or plastic, so as to prevent the leaf absorbing substances from the leather and/or acquiring a leathery taste or smell.

If it doesn't work out well for tobacco, your lady friend will love it:

There is a lining - looks to be nice synthetic. There is not a place for tobacco - I will carry that in a small separate, removable pouch or zip-lock. Works well for me - room for 2 pipes, tobacco, tools and even a tin.

I like the 34 second video showing how it operates...

Missed that. I am concerned what I am in for lol. Hey Valentines Day is coming up. If I don't like it...
No offense- it is a tad amusing though. Being the manly man I am!

I took all this warpaint stuff out and tossed it on her dresser. Filled with pipe goods now! Funny thing, I do have a bit of an urge to pluck my beard since getting this pouch!
