BIC Ecolutions Gel Pens, Ocean-Bound Recycled Plastic, 12-Count Pack, Blue

My first choice of pens. They are made with 78% ocean-bound recycled plastic. They even have a loop in the push button end that can accept a chain or line. Retractable, no cap to lose with a pocket clip.

Love these pens. Smooth glide no skip

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The BIC ReVolution Ocean Retractable pen is a great writing tool. The ink flows smoothly. The pen itself has a nice design that reminds me of ocean waves hitting the shoreline. When you press the top down, the pen tip is exposed. To retract the tip, you press a button on the side. The ink has a nice color to it that is neither too light nor too dark. This pen is great for a wide variety of uses such as jotting down quick notes or for writing letters.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I adore BIC, in general. These pens write like a dream, and are super agronomical. As far as function and execution, 11/10. On top of that, I really love that these utilize recycled ocean plastics! Makes me feel good, while it feels good to write (:

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pens, they are absolutely awesome. I work at a job that requires a lot of writing so I know that a good pen that lasts a while is a good pen to always have with you. I highly recommend these pens.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC is my go to brand for quality pens. I love the new ReVolution Ocean Retractable pen. The click is dicreet and quick to retract. The pen is smooth and glides nicely. This is my new favorite pen at work and to use daily.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the BIC - BIC ReVolution Ocean-Bound 73% Recycled Plastic Ball Pen, Medium Point (1.0 mm), 100% Recycled Packaging, Black, 12-Count and they are the best pens ever! They write amazing, leaving no streaks, or piles of ink on the paper. It is used everyday, and they don't run out fast. A must have pen and perfect for everything.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy using 1mm pens because of the thicker lines they write with (I have big, bold handwriting). This pen leaves smooth, thick lines that are satisfying. As a retractable, the clicker is a little mushier than I would like (less satisfying to use than the writing itself).

I bought them the last week of August (at the start of this semester) and only use them for class. I am taking 3 college courses. And, I have already completely emptied one pen and am halfway through a second. That's after only 5 weeks. I do take a lot of notes, but I don't think I've ever had a pen run out of ink this quickly. That being said, they do write very nicely, never skip, feel fine in my hand, and overall work as expected.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I highly recommend these pens as they work excellently. Unfortunately because of the time restraints that they put on reviewing products, I cannot discern the long term capabilities of these pens. Short term they work great though.
