Each spring, Lamy brings two new colors to the TIPO line, Typically, they last for most of the year and then quietly retire. TIPO is itself a sort of quiet. It has an aluminum body and its clip is also what releases the rollerball point. It is, in a way, shy as a pen. The interesting thing is that its refill, the M66, is perhaps Lamy‘s best and most powerful refill. Each one of their most expensive rollerballs uses the M66. The TIPO is a modest pen that gives a chance to take one of their best refills out for a spin. And if you like it, as you will, you can always simply refill the TIPO.
