HobonichiClear Cover “Eric” by Shaun Tan for Weeks
This is the decorated version of the Clear Cover, an optional, extra covering that goes directly over your Hobonichi Techo Weeks and protects your planner from wear and tear over the course of the year.
The artwork is by Australian illustrator, comic book artist and picture book author Shaun Tan. We've dotted various scenes of Eric, one of his most popular works. Eric is a character unswayed by anything around him who searches for things that he likes and places that are comfortable. You'll occasionally find areas that are foil-stamped, and its sparkle adds to this Cover on Cover's charm.
The Clear Cover provides a sideways bookmark, a place to store your pen, and two card-size pockets. You can also slip some decorations in underneath.
*The Weeks books shown in the images are from the 2021 lineup.
These colors are not available for sale in the 2022 lineup.

Please Read Before You Buy
In order to provide you with the most satisfaction for your product, we've compiled a list of warnings, potential issues, and tips to keep in mind for this particular product. Please be sure to read this information carefully before placing your order.
- Avoid cold temperatures
The PVC vinyl of the Clear Cover may lose elasticity and become difficult to put on when left in cold temperatures. If this happens, we recommend letting the product sit in a warm area before applying to your cover. Please be careful when handling your Clear Cover in cold temperatures, as it becomes more susceptible to damage if dropped or handled roughly.
- Maximum pen width of 13.5 mm for pen holder
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free bonus gift with select Japanese-version Hobonichi Web Shop products. Pens with certain shapes and materials may be difficult to pull through the holder. The holder can fit pens up to 13.5 mm (0.53”) in diameter.
- If marking flap is hard to loosen, hold the rounded edge
If you’re having a hard time opening the marking flap, press your thumb strongly against the rounded edge of the flap as you hold the spot beside it in place.
- Available for use with Weeks Mega (Colors series)
This size will fit the Hobonichi Techo Weeks Mega - Colors series. The product may feel tight at first, but it will break in over time.
The Clear Cover will have 1 cm loose plastic past the top and bottom when used with the Weeks Mega - Sneaker book series.
