Capture your thoughts and memories in a journal that is as adventurous as you are. The TRAVELER'S Notebook Starter Kit in Blue (Passport Size) features a rich, deep indigo leather cover inspired by the azure sky just before dawn. Handcrafted in Chiang Mai, Thailand, this vegetable-tanned cowhide leather is left with a natural finish, allowing it to develop a unique patina and grow more beautiful with every scratch and sign of use.
Designed for portability and versatility, the Passport Size fits perfectly in a pocket or a small bag. It serves not only as a creative outlet but also as a functional travel companion—it is the exact size of a standard passport, allowing it to double as a protective cover for your travel documents. Inside, you’ll find premium Japanese MD Paper, renowned for its smooth texture and resistance to ink feathering and bleed-through, making it a favourite for fountain pen users.
This modular system is infinitely customisable. Use the included mustard-coloured spare rubber band to add extra refills, zipper cases, or card files, transforming your notebook into a wallet, planner, or sketchbook tailored to your specific journey.

You can also customise it with two to three refills of different purposes, simply by adding the connecting bands. Want more? Personalise it with a special metal charm on to the rubber band of the cover! The longer you use it, the leather will gain more texture and colour to make it more unique. With various refills designed for different usages, it will become THE NOTEBOOK you carry around every day.
【MAINTENANCE】
TRAVELER’S notebook can be used without maintaining. However, if you are worried about the scratch marks or the leather drying up, you may use a leather cream to polish it and prevent the scratch marks from showing up.
The part where the colour is dark is the place where the leather cream is applied.
