  • 2025 New

Specially made as the cover of the Hobonichi 5-Year Techo, a book you’ll carry with you for 5 years, Beige & Navy is made with reversible leather that has a beige with a tint of gray on the exterior, and navy on the interior.



The leather used for this cover is named “Trello Double” and is tanned by Italian brand Poletto. Using a special processing technique, this leather allows you to enjoy two colors with a single piece. This was also popular as the 2022 edition Taut cover. It uses Brazilian bullhide leather that is finely textured both on the front and back for a luxurious feel.







The design is kept simple to make the most of the texture of the leather. The inner back is navy. The left-hand side of the cover is debossed with the Hobonichi logo.







The pen hook on the right side is designed to hold a pen by its clip.







You will be able to enjoy the charms of the cover, from the simple form that snugly fits the techo, the kind and mature color scheme, and the special and luxurious feel the leather in itself holds.

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.

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.

Actual specifications may vary from listing

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.

Leather may contain preexisting wrinkles and marks

In order to allow customers the enjoyment of all-natural leather, the leather is processed in a way that retains its original feel. This may leave imperfections visible on the surface of the cover, such as wrinkles, scratches, stains, or vein marks.
Depending on the conditions in which the cover is used, natural oils of the leather may emerge and appear as stains. We ask for your understanding for these naturally-occurring characteristics of genuine leather.

Leather coloring stains

Dyed leather products tend to leave stains. Please be careful not to allow the leather to adhere or rub against other objects such as clothing or other belongings, especially if the bag is wet from water or sweat from your hands.

Immediately dry if it gets wet

Immediately dab your product with a dry cloth if it gets wet. Avoid drying it with high temperatures, and place it in a well-ventilated place in the shade.

The cover does not shut tightly

The cover does not shut tightly while it is new, but it will wear in over time.

Not for use with Cover on Cover

The PVC plastic of the Cover on Cover contains plasticizer additives which may cause a reaction in the leather dye and affect the color and quality of the leather cover. Please refrain from using the Cover on Cover with this product.

Avoid storing in hot and humid places

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.

Dark spots or spotted areas may be visible

During the leather drying process, particles floating in the air may adhere to the surface. Please understand this is an unavoidable part of the production process.

About the leather

Due to the characteristics of leather processing, you may see something resembling fine scratches on the surface. This will soften over continued use. There may also be large wrinkles due to variances in the softness of the leather. These are all due to individual differences across the leather.
