Handmade leather cover. MD paper refill. Develops patina with use. Complete passport-sized starter kit.
Why This Exists
The TRAVELER'S Notebook Passport Size was created in 2006 to be more than just a notebook — it's a modular system that evolves with you. Each leather cover is handmade in Chiang Mai, Thailand, using roughly cut cowhide that's minimally treated to preserve its natural character. The simplicity is intentional. The design is deliberately plain so you can customise it however you want: add refills, attach charms, paste stickers, clip on accessories.
The included blank refill uses MD (Midori Diary) paper made in Japan — fountain pen friendly, bleed-resistant, feather-resistant, and smooth to write on. The leather develops a rich patina with use, reflecting your personality and how you handle it. The elastic band and tin clasp hold everything secure. Use it as a journal, planner, sketchbook, passport holder, or wallet. Simple, functional, and built to become uniquely yours.

Note: Each leather cover is handmade, so texture and colour vary slightly between pieces. The leather is minimally treated — scratches are normal and become less visible as the cover develops its patina. Use connecting bands (sold separately) to add up to 4 refills. Compatible with dozens of passport-sized refills and accessories to create your own system.
