ēnsso GIRO Ballpoint, Now Live on Kickstarter (Sponsor)

My thanks to ēnsso for sponsoring The Pen Addict this week.

GIRO is the new ballpoint pen by ēnsso for Parker-style refills.

GIRO is a cigar-shaped pen machined in California from high-grade aluminum finished in matte black. What is interesting about this pen is its unique twist mechanism that allows a smooth and fun operation. Ergonomics and a minimalist aesthetic inform its simple design lines. It features a PVD-coated stainless steel clip and comes equipped with a Schmidt easyFlow 9000 refill.

GIRO is now available on Kickstarter for $49, a 40% discount off the future retail price.
