Pilot is predicting quantities when these ship October 1st, so we are taking pre-orders now to assure availability.
Pilot is pleased to introduce our newest US Exclusive: Custom 74 Lavender Fog. This serene, opaque lavender barrel with silver trim evokes the quiet stillness of morning mist, bringing softness, clarity, and calm intention to every writing experience.
The Custom 74 has long been a beloved part of Pilot’s Fine Writing collection, admired for its smooth 14-karat gold #5 nib and everyday usability. The Lavender Fog edition addresses a growing demand in the market for an opaque Custom 74 barrel, while also supporting Pilot’s ongoing commitment to expanding color options within the line.
Available in four rare nib sizes: Soft Fine, Soft Fine Medium, Soft Medium, and Double Broad. These expressive nibs offer enhanced line variation and a cushioned, graceful feel across the page, creating new opportunities for customers to explore the broader Custom 74 collection.
