Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Adam ★★★★★

The leather is surprisingly soft to the touch, and the stitching turned out neat even for a beginner like me. I love how the cover fits my notebook perfectly and already has a nice worn-in feel.

Samuel ★★★★★

The leather is surprisingly soft right out of the box, and the pre-punched holes made my first stitching project so much easier than I expected. I’ve already finished my journal cover and can’t wait to start another.

Robert ★★★★★

The leather smells incredible as soon as you open the kit, and the stitching holes are already punched perfectly. I put mine together in one relaxing afternoon and it now holds my field notes securely.
