Large Hobonichi 5-Year Techo Leather Cover (Red)A5 Size (fits Large 5-Year Techo)
The gorgeous and timeless Red cover is specially designed to comfortably fit the Large Hobonichi 5-Year Techo.
The covers were created to protect the book you’ll carry with you for 5 years. It will conform nicely to your hands over time, and you’ll enjoy its classic look for years to come.
The front of the cover is foil-pressed with the name Hobonichi 5-Year Techo in silver.
The bottom left interior of all the covers are also imprinted with the Hobonichi logo to enhance the feel of the leather and keep the design nice and simple.
Inside the cover on the right-hand side is a pen hook that can store a pen by its clip. The pen hook has a diameter of 8mm and will not fit pens with extra-wide clips.
The inside of the leather cover spine has undergone a leathercraft process called “skiving” to provide a perfect fit.
Because the cover uses a firm leather, the front cover may rise from the book in the beginning due to a tight fit. Over continued use, the cover will break in to lay flat with the book. The leather’s character and color deepens over time for a transformation that’s a joy to watch. We recommend waterproof spray and other leather care goods for users who would like to protect their covers and keep the leather clean.
The Hobonichi Techo leather covers are made with all-natural materials that have their own unique appearance. Every leather cover is a one-of-a-kind, all-natural product, so you can feel good knowing your cover is the only one like it in the world. Here are some of the unique characteristics you can expect to find.
- Markings that naturally occur during an animal’s life:
Wrinkles, veins, texture, and scratches
- Characteristics from the manufacturing process of natural leather:
Dark spots (occurs when components of the leather are exposed to iron in the air during the tanning and dyeing process)
