Hi everyone! Today, I’ll be sharing with you what Techo team Komata stores in her techo cover.
*This is a re-edit of Komata’s Japanese Techo News from 2020.

She says they’re all normal, nothing-special items, but will come in handy in various situations.



1. Hobonichi Store Exclusive 3-color ballpoint pen
It’s the perfect pen to carry around as it has 3 colors despite it being compact.

2. Memo pads
For times when she is out and about, or isn’t at her desk, Komata keeps 1-2 sheets of cute memo pads for when she wants to hand someone a quick note.

3. Stickers
Although not frequently, Komata often finds herself wanting to stick stickers, so she keeps it in her cover. On a side note, she finds Shinsuke Yoshitake’s stickers too cute to use so she actually hasn’t used a single piece yet! She sometimes takes it out of her cover to admire it, though.

4. Hobonichi Stencils (Schedule)
Komata uses this stencil in place of a ruler. Because it’s thin, it won’t get in the way even when stored in the cover.

5. Business cards
It’s reassuring to have several business cards with you as it’s not always the case that you carry your card holder with you.

6. 1,000 yen note
She always keeps either a 1,000 yen or 5,000 yen note in her techo cover. Not only does it come in handy when she doesn't have small change in her wallet, but it’s a lifesaver when she forgets her wallet at home, only to realize that at the train station.

7. Washi tape
Washi tapes are useful for pasting things in her techo. She wraps several of her favorite designs around laminated cardboard paper.

8. Sticky notes
Komata uses sticky notes to stick on pages in a book she finds important, or pass someone a short message. The Hobonichi Translucent Sticky Notes come in a case in the size of a card so it fits perfectly into the pockets.

9. Plasters
These are needed for blisters when wearing sandals during summer. She restocks it anytime she uses it.

These are the 9 items that Komata keeps in her techo! The items look like this when stored in the cover.




She likes how it looks smart even though it's packed in.

It looks compact even with the Weeks Mega slipped in.



The cover she uses is B JIRUSHI YOSHIDA's Passport Cover. She has been using her cover for two years, and she's become attached to it as it softened over the years.

So, this is how Komata has been utilizing her techo cover! I was surprised at how much could fit in a slim-looking Passport Cover. If you're a Weeks-user, or even if you're not, I hope her tips will come in handy!
