Emblematic of Wingback’s design, quality, and overall aesthetic: The Winston Card Holder

A lovely and quality piece that is already aging well with use. A perfect EDC item with character. I’m a repeat buyer and every piece I’ve ordered has the same excellent character. Awaiting my Every Day Pouch 1L in Dazzle Cam—quite excited to receive it!

Waste of money

If would be possible to get a negative mark you would get it !
I paid for a fountain pen with F nib
Got M nib after almost 2 months of waiting
Now the pen is just sitting somewhere, very disappointed

Hi Andrei,

Hope you're well. You did receive a extra fine nib as requested but didn't feel the writing experience was quite right for you. I sent the replacement nib to you free of charge so it's a shame you're unhappy still. Happy to discuss if you'd like, please feel free to reach out via email. Hello@wingback.co.uk

Sling 001
David

This limited edition sling, created and handmade by Charles at Wingback:Selected Works, is the best sling I have owned. It has been a long journey to this point, across many makers. Wingback have done a cracking job with this. Superb build quality and design, and the perfect size too.

Great travel pen.

I took this pend to Italy for two weeks as my only pen and it worked beautifully. I had to smooth the nib because out of the box it was scratchy. Also, sometimes metal on metal threads are not very smooth and I can fill grining a little. That said, still a wonderful pen and highly recommended.

Lovely pocket pen

I’ve had my titanium wingback for a couple of weeks now and I like it a lot. It’s well made and looks great. Personally, for it to be 5 stars, it would be a little lighter and a little wider. But some people will love it as it is.

Great hip flask

I had been on a quest for a contemporary hip flask - my search ended at the Wingback website. The Black Steel and Titanium are both absolutely wonderful. Beautifully made, tactile 100% fit for purpose.

The Original Card Wallet - Charcoal

This is my first purchase from Wingback and I have to say that I am extremely pleased the the card wallet. It is well designed to hold your credit cards and is just the right size. The leather is so nice and the smell brings back memories of holidays gone by in Italy.

So pleased I have just purchased the Winston Travel Wallet.

Outstanding

The quality is outstanding, this has replaced my 25 year old Lamy 200 pencil!
It’s a pleasure to use, the only thing missing is an eraser?
I will be looking into getting the ballpoint or fountain pen!

Very happy

Fisher Cartridge
Bill C. (Berwyn, US)
Really?

I am baffled by the positive reviews for the Fisher ink cartridge. Like many others who have posted on line, my experience is that the Fisher pen cartridge simply does not flow. I have tried 3 different cartridges all with the same poor performance. I’ve attached a photo. Wingback’s response was to offer me some replacement cartridges in case mine was from a “bad batch.” In the first place, why would Wingback ship pens with cartridges that have bad batches? Also, the defective cartridges that I tested came from purchases over time for a Space Pen that I own. Wingback’s other suggestion was that I purchase a newer model pen that accepts alternative refills. Really? How about sending me a replacement pen at no charge that accepts an ink cartridge that actually works? Shame on you. I have been very impressed with how communicative Wingback has been. I remain a big fan of the size, construction, finish, and weighted balance of their original mechanical pen. I wish them success and hope they find a way for the pen to actually write.

Hi B.C,

As mentioned below I love the Schmidt Megaline 4889 cartridge as an alternative and will be happy to help you find the right stocvkist if you'd like to get in touch.

All the best!

Love the pen, not the cartridge

Initially, I raved about this pen and I continue to find its construction, finish and balanced weight to be awesome. However, the Fisher Space Pen ink cartridge is horrible. I should have looked at the online negative reviews of the ink cartridge before purchasing this very expensive pen made even more expensive by tariffs. In an effort to give the benefit of the doubt, I ordered a replacement Fisher cartridge which was no better. At Wingback’s suggestion, I then ordered a Schmidt MegaLine 4889 Pressurized Refill which was an improvement but still fell short compared to the ink flow of even inexpensive non pressurized cartridges. I did not purchase this pen so that I could write in zero gravity. For the record, Megan at Wingback has excelled at communicating with me and acknowledging my concerns. I urge Wingback to find and supply a cartridge that enables their unique pen to…write right!

Hi B.C,

I'm so sorry to hear you're having such a terrible time with the Fisher cartridges, we know they can be a bit polarising so designed the original mechanical pen to also take Schmidt Megaline 4889 cartridges. I personally find them to give a superior writing experience overall.

All the info is on our product page but more than happy to discuss over email too, just get in touch hello@wingback.co.uk and I'll do whatever I can to assist.

Thanks

Rainer (Singapore, SG)
Terrible fit and finish and no response

Received the pen and although action was decent, extremely
disappointed with the finish. Out of the box the top has big scratches/gouges.. doesn’t look like tooling marks. Just looked banged up.. don’t expect this from a brand new pen especially one this expensive.

Many emails sent over the last week about a return and zero response. Terrible…

Hi Rainer,

Thanks for getting in touch, so sorry to hear you're not happy with your pen and we may have missed a message about it.

I'll look through for you now and we'll get this resolved for you.

Thanks

Travel Wallet - Chestnut
David F. (London, GB)
Travel wallet

Great leather, well made and spacious. Fits comfortably into pocket despite size. Slight nervousness about the angle cut, which leaves edge of cards exposed. But holds them in place securely and hopefully this will not change over time.

Hi David,

Thanks for your 5 star review

As for the leather keeping your cards securely in place, you wallet will strecth to the amount of cards you add into it over time but the leather does not spring back once stretched. If you maintain your desired capacity you cards will stay nice and snug!

Pocket Perfection

As someone who has been writing with a fountain pen for 30yrs, I spent a long time deciding on my next purchase- wanting a pen for daily use with a modern industrial aesthetic. Narrowed it down to a few options, and let my kids decide between them as a father’s day gift. Well- they nailed it. The Wingback pen is exactly what I was hoping for- a pocket pen which is beautifully made, and which encapsulates the idea of quiet luxury which I was after. The fit and finish is excellent, and the Bock nib in medium is a pleasure to use, with zero leaks and is always ready to start writing given the well sealed cap. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase, and hope other Wingback products are in the ‘wings' for me down the track.

Hi Remi,

Thanks so much for this thoughtful review. So glad to hear that you love your fathers day gift and it is serving you so well.

Sounds like the fountain pen could be the start if your Wingback collection!

Hope you have a lovely day!
