Traveller's notebook camel [15193006]

Perfect..good quality leather!

Absolutely love this (Midori as was) Traveler's Journal. I looked at them for well over two years, not able to justify the cost, and then Amazon highlighted one in the Amazon store. It was a returned item, and the quality was advised as 'Brand New'. Amazon advised that it might be without its original wrapping, but the saving was definitely worth it. Even better was that if I found it wasn't as it should be, then I could still return it.Eagerly awaited, when it arrived, not only was it in its original packaging (bag etc.) it was unopened. It really was brand new.I was, and still am, so pleased with this. Over time the leather (and it is nice leather) will gain its own unique patina, so I am not frightened of actually USING this and taking it out into the field so to speak.The original Midori TJ's were made in Japan, and although the company changed this part of its business to Traveler's Company, the notebook covers are now made in Thailand.I am thrilled with it, and whilst there are cheaper leather covers on the market, I haven't found one that's as well finished. Others are made of pleather or polyurethane "leather".Highly recommended for those who like to journal, or sketch, or write....or anything else for that matter.

So happy to get the camel version ...and so far the best price I've seen as they've just come back into stock. I bought the brown version a month ago. I have always had filofax planners in the past but they didn't quite work for journal as wasted space and rings in the way. And unlike the ring planners, this leather feels like it will last a lifetime it's so thick. If you love writing, drawing journaling you will love this as you get so much more space, yet still quite compact. I love this so much I've bought a second for hubby's anniversary present. I'm going to use the camel as a sketchbook and art journal. But if you just have the one it is easy to swap booklets out as you go from daily planner to holiday companion. Just check out YouTube....loads of inspiration there as well as making your own notebooks to save a bit. Please note the company separated from Midori....you may still find older stock with the midori stamp on the (black and brown)....but gradually they will all have travelers notebook stamped on the back and inserts. I have both...and the leather is just as good....but being leather each piece differs slightly. It will wear depending on how you keep it and handle it.

I have so far purchased 4 of these over the last year to give as presents. The notebook is made a soft high quality leather and presented perfectly in a cotton bag.These notebooks only get better with time with every scuff and blemish adding a personalised patina.They are perfect for use as a notebook, artist sketch pad or diary.The notebook comes with one Midori insert but various others can be bought seperately. These include everything from a weekly/ daily diary to a high quaily sketch pad. They are a tad expensive but well worth the investment.Overall I really believe this product deserves the 5 star review I have given it.

Been umm-ing and ahh-ing for ages, over whether or not to buy this TN. Finally took the plunge and I’m glad I did! Beautiful camel leather, came very nicely packaged and arrived about a month before I was expecting it! Came with a plain notebook and two extra elastics (one was actually around the cardboard packaging). Already had a Niki set up for 2023, so will be using this as a notebook this year, and a bujo next year! :)

Nicely made, is what it is and probably a little pricey!
