Notebook Cover, 3.5 x 5.5", hand stitched leather - natural veg

Natural veg tanned tooling leather cover for your Field Notes or other similar sized notebook.

FIELD NOTES (& OTHERS) NOTEBOOK COVER

You want to carry a notebook with you everywhere, and it needs a good cover. Here is your solution. Thin and sleek with no heavy spines, this is the perfect back pocket companion. This design fits many different 3.5"x5.5" notebooks. You can easily carry two notebooks in this cover, one with its back cover tucked into the right flap, and another with its front cover tucked into the left flap.

DESIGN

No stitching on the spine means thread will not wear through over time. A front flap that is open at the top means you can tuck away receipts, business cards and other whathaveyous. Full-size front and back flaps means a perfect writing surface under each page. Leather construction means it will evolve with you through use and become more and more beautiful as it forms to the notebook and ages to perfection.

"NATURAL LEATHER" CHARACTER

I adore things that come to look better with age and through use become one-of-a-kind items. This product in the "natural" color is made of vegetable tanned leather and will evolve over time. It will darken to a rich caramel color with use and exposure to UV light and take on an individual character based on the use by the owner. After a couple months it will be beautifully unique. If you want to speed up the darkening process, you can tan the leather by leaving it in the sun. Or just let time do the work!

CARE

You need to treat this leather with balm or oil to prevent cracking and deterioration and keep it looking its best. Our One Star Leather Balm happens to be the best product I've ever used on my leathers, https://www.etsy.com/listing/112643822/one-star-leather-balm. I recommend applying it in thin coats: Once a day for a week, once a week for a month, once a month for a year, and then as needed.

Our products are 100% handmade in our little garage workshop in California. No sewing machines, no assembly lines. Just top quality raw materials put together by hand.
