The Superior Labor A5 Notebook Cover – Stamped Note Keeper

£129.90

Notebook covers often come across as serious and formal, but this Superior Labor A5 cover breaks the mould with a bold, eye-catching embossing that adds both presence and playfulness. Combined with the natural texture of the leather, it’s a piece that develops a unique character the more you use it.

Pen holders are attached to both the front and back covers, allowing you to secure the notebook closed by threading a single pen through both loops. Of course, you can also insert two pens separately if you prefer.

The vegetable-tanned leather is crafted by Tochigi Leather using traditional pit tanning: hides are soaked slowly in tannin-rich pits for weeks to months, producing a firm, durable leather that ages beautifully with use.

Material: vegetable-tanned leather crafted by Tochigi Leather

Size: A5, W16 × H27.5 × D1.5cm (when closed)

Handmade in Japan

The Superior Labor was founded in 2007 by Makoto Kawai, a master of leatherwork and vintage clothing. The workshop at Nap Village was established in 2012, high in the Okayama mountains, where a small team cuts and sews every piece by hand.

The quality of materials and superb craftsmanship are what sets TSL apart. Paraffin-coated canvas, Tochigi and glove leather, and solid brass hardware are all chosen to wear in rather than wear out.

Our range covers the stationery side of what they make: pen cases and pen rolls, A5 and A6 notebook covers, zip organisers, canvas and leather pouches, and the Engineer and Mission Case bags, alongside brass charms and clips. New collections are released twice a year and are usually offered here as a pre-order before they land.
