Question 1

Is the Eastpak Benchmark Pencil Case large enough for a 15 cm ruler or a geometry set?**

Accepted Answer

Probably not. This case is designed as a slim, single-layer organizer. It fits standard pens, pencils, and erasers perfectly, but a 15 cm ruler or thick geometry tools will likely cause the zipper to bulge or prevent it from closing fully. If you need to carry math tools, we’d suggest looking at a wider pouch-style case instead.

Question 2

How durable is the zipper, really? I’ve seen some mixed reviews online.**

Accepted Answer

That's a fair concern—it's the most common talking point in user reviews. The zipper is functional and smooth for daily use, but it is not the heavy-duty metal zipper found on larger Eastpak backpacks. For a standard school year with average use, you should be fine. However, if you tend to overstuff your case, the stress will shorten the zipper's lifespan. Many TikTok users mentioned keeping it to about 80% full to ensure longevity.

Question 3

Can I throw this pencil case in the washing machine if it gets dirty?**

Accepted Answer

We don't recommend machine washing it. The fabric is thin and can pill or warp in a machine cycle. For simple smudges, a damp cloth with mild soap works best. For tougher ink stains, try a gentle spot-cleaning with a soft brush and cold water. Avoid using bleach or harsh solvents, as this will fade the color quickly.

Question 4

Is this suitable for an artist or someone who uses chunky markers?**

Accepted Answer

If your arsenal is full of thick brush pens, highlighters, or chunky markers, this is likely not the case for you. The case is optimized for standard pencils and slim ballpoint pens. Users who needed to store art supplies frequently mentioned that the narrow profile was the main reason they returned it. This is best suited for general writing tools, not specialized creative gear.

Question 5

Does Eastpak offer a warranty on this accessory?**

Accepted Answer

Yes, like most Eastpak gear, this pencil case is covered by the brand’s 30-year international warranty against manufacturing defects, including zipper failures. However, the warranty generally covers craftsmanship issues, not normal wear and tear or damage from overstuffing. If you experience a genuine zipper defect, you can submit a claim via the Eastpak website with proof of purchase, and they'll typically repair or replace it.
