Inspired by the ancient, deep-rooted hues of a prehistoric forest, the TRAVELER'S Notebook Starter Kit in Olive is the perfect companion for the outdoor enthusiast and urban explorer alike. This Passport Size edition evokes the spirit of adventure, making it an ideal vessel for tracking trails, sketching landscapes, or simply organizing your daily journey.
The kit features a minimalist cow leather cover, handcrafted in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The Olive leather is known for its beautiful transformation; as you carry it through the world, it develops a deep, lustrous patina and soft texture that uniquely reflects your travels. Because it matches the dimensions of a standard passport, this cover doubles as a protective case for your travel documents.
Inside, the kit includes a blank notebook refill made with premium MD Paper in Japan. Designed for a superior writing experience, the paper resists bleeding and feathering, even with fountain pens. With its simple elastic band construction, you can easily customise your setup with charms, beads, or additional refills using a connecting band.
The Starter Kit contains:
- Leather Cover (13.4 x 9.8 x 1 cm)
- Blank Notebook (12.4 x 8.9 x 0.4 cm)
- Cotton Bag (16.5 x 12 cm)
- Spare Rubber Band
- Cover made in Thailand
- Refill made in Japan
Also available in Black, Brown, Camel and Blue
【PERSONALISATION】
You can start using the notebook immediately with this starter kit. If you want to increase its storage capacity, you can add extra TN Accessories like a zipper case or a pen holder. 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.
