The Sailor ProGear Slim is the little sister of the regular sized ProGear (reviewed here), costs about half the price, and by chance does also make a perfect (shirt) pocket pen. Being a standard pen of Sailors fountain pen range and a highly popular pen due to its – in Sailor price terms – relative affordability, the ProGear Slim was a pen that I had shortlisted for quite a while for review for these pages here.
Before we hop into the review, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the fine people at Papierundstift.de for providing me with the pen so that I could do this review.
But now, check out the video-review below, which is as always preceded by some quick facts. Again, I hope the review is helpful and that you enjoy watching it!
