Illustrator and children’s book author Jin Kitamura created the cute illustration featured on this techo cover.
The image shows pandas happily playing with tires. It was drawn in crayon for a laid-back look, and each panda has a different expression. The image is so cute that you’ll never “tire” of looking at it.
Behind the pandas is a colorful background, which really accentuates how much fun the pandas are having.
These illustrations are printed on a natural-colored canvas material which works perfectly with the gentle expressions of the pandas.
Kitamura’s signature is featured on the pocket on the back of the cover.
The round bookmark charms are reminiscent of round tires.
Kitamura’s panda illustrations are also featured on a Weeks book, pencil board, Deco Rush products and the Translucent Sticky Notes so you can surround yourself with cute pandas.
You can also purchase a children’s book written and illustrated by Kitamura, and experience the gentle world in his works.
*From the Hobonichi Techo 2024 lineup, the Original book is available as the Japanese edition and the English edition.
(The English edition is only available as the January start version.)

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.
Each item is individually assembled and sewn by hand by a factory worker. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but there may be slight differences.
This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
This cover uses thicker materials than usual, so it may not fit. Forcing it into a Cover on Cover may damage the products.
The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
The pen holder is designed to perfectly fit the 12.2 mm (0.48”) diameter Jetstream pen offered as a free Hobonichi Store Exclusive. 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.
Please avoid storing your product in hot, humid places or placing it atop other objects for long periods of time as this may result in lower quality and color stains.
