The Weeks Mega book contains approximately three times the number of memo pages as the standard version. This allows users to fill the blank pages to their hearts’ content without having to worry about running out of pages.
The weight is 170 g (6.0 oz), only 36 g (1.3 oz) more than the standard Colors Weeks book. The thickness is 13 mm (0.5 in), only 3 mm (0.1 in) thicker than the standard Colors Weeks book.
The Sneaker series showcases the flexibility the Weeks Mega provides by staying portable and allowing you to pull it out anytime to write as much as you want. The paperback book makes it easy to grasp, the pages are easy to turn, and the book is well-designed for storing in your pocket for easy access whenever you find yourself wanting to jot down a note.
Leaf Green is a techo as green as the leaves on a tree. Like the leaves shining in the sunlight, this color is full of life. The year 2025 and the Mega logo are printed on the cover in puffy letters.
The Mega logo on the front and Hobonichi logo on the back were originally written by hand and emphasize the casual look of sneakers and the way the book can take rough handling.
The Sneaker series does not contain attached bookmarks. Instead, the book comes with reusable clear sticky notes you can use to mark the current week, important dates, memo pages filled with information, and more.
When you order this Hobonichi Techo Weeks, you’ll receive a clear, adhesive corner pocket you can stick anywhere you like.
The book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River paper. This paper that underwent an overhaul with the 2024 edition techo is more resistant to bleed through, lighter despite being the same thickness, and has a smoother surface by adjusting the fibers of the paper.
The Weeks Mega book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 213 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (217 pages in the English edition Weeks). The back of the book contains bonus pages, including Sample Symbols and Icons and Oodles of Noodles.
The Hobonichi Techo 2025 Weeks book comes in either English or Japanese. If you love this cover, then you can pick out which language you’d like in that book.
*Both the English and Japanese editions of the Weeks Mega only come as January-start versions.
If you’d like storage space or a way to change up the look of your Weeks book, you can customize your book by pairing it with a Weeks cover.

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.
The Hobonichi Techo's Tomoe River paper is designed to prevent bleed-through, but some fountain pens and water-based ink pens are not compatible with this paper. When switching to a new pen, we recommend testing the pen somewhere in the book, such as the back memo pages, to see if the ink bleeds through or takes an especially long time to dry.
Removing the clear sticky notes may tear the paper, so please pull slowly from the corner.
This book is not recommended for use with the Weeks Clear Cover. (Clear Cover will have 1 cm loose plastic past the top and bottom of the book.)
Due to the materials used in the cover, the book will need to be slightly held down while writing.
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.
If you’ve used any of these products, we welcome your notes on what you like about them or what led you to buy them so we can share it with customers who are currently considering these products. We’d also love to welcome comments from customers who purchased their techo outside the Hobonichi Store or received their book as a gift.
