You should buy this…[Spigen Apple Pencil Holder](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V1V34TV?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)

First of all, I am in no way affiliated with Spigen or Amazon. I have a Nomad Leather Folio case for my iPad and love it because it’s so thin, yet offers a reasonable amount of protection. The only issue I had was that I couldn’t carry my Apple Pencil with it. The Spigen Apple Pencil Holder turned my Nomad case into the perfect case. If you don’t want the Apple Pencil with you, remove the holder. If you don’t want to charge the pencil, just insert it upside down. I’ve been using mine for a month now and love it.

Neat idea. Then again, I’m sure most people here could easily design the same thing 😉

Great point…but unfortunately, manufacturing it would be the hurdle. Trust me, if I could…I would
