Hobonichi Planner Hobonichi Planner Dark Brown

This deep brown cover changes its expression over time, and the versatile style looks good in any situation. It gradually conforms to your hands with use – like only good quality leather can.

Back by popular demand, the cover is a production of the select shop, ARTS&SCIENCE. The soft, lightweight leather of the Hobonichi Planner covers evoke the feeling of tossing on a light coat. ARTS&SCIENCE owner Sonya Park has personally chosen the materials on a strict principle: that the use of high-quality materials results in a product that can be used for a very long time. The tri-fold cover flap shuts with the satisfying snap of a single button, and holds the pen inside.

*This dark brown cover was created for the English Hobonichi Planner, but may also be used with the Hobonichi Techo. This is one of six colors exclusively available through the Hobonichi online store.

Important information

Colors on the screen may differ from actual product
Actual products are featured in all posted photographs,but please note that colors may vary slightly from how it appears on your computer monitor.
All covers are hand-made and may contain slight variances
Each and every cover is individually sewn by a factory worker hand-operating a sewing machine. Best efforts are made to ensure consistent sizes and specifications, but as these
products are hand-made, covers are not made as exact copies.
Leather covers may contain 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 wrinkles.
We ask for your understanding for these naturally-occurring characteristics of genuine leather.
Leather coloring stains
The leather used in these covers does not contain color protectant.
Please note that coloring will cause stains if the leather adheres to or rubs against another object, so please use caution.
Avoid storing in hot and humid places
Please avoid storing your cover in hot, humid places or placing it on potentially adhesive substances for long periods of time as this may result in lower product quality and color stains.
Please use caution when storing.
If your cover gets wet
Immediately dab your cover 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.
Stitching around cover edges
We ask for your understanding in regards to unavoidable dents around cover edges from the sewing machine.
Leather bookmarks
Bookmarks are made of cow hide and may tear off if pulled too strongly. Please handle your bookmark strings with care.
Caring for your leather cover
These covers are very delicate, so please use caution when maintaining them. Gently wiping your cover with a soft, dry cloth occasionally will be sufficient. For removing stains and other
routine care to extend the life of your leather, we recommend using the Leather Care Kit available in the Hobonichi Store.
Hobonichi has partnered with R&D Co., Ltd. to provide customers with critically-acclaimed leather care products.
Warning about the snap button
Snap buttons may break if forced shut around an overstuffed cover. Please do not force the button shut.
Inserting your planner into your cover
When inserting your planner book into your cover, it will be easier to begin by sliding the left side of the book into the left pocket, and then inserting the right side.
Using fountain pens
Writing on the planner’s Tomoe River paper with a fountain pen may result in ink bleeds or transfers from wet ink.
When using water-based inks, we recommend testing the pen on an inconspicuous place in the book before using.
