Even at 240 pages, the Weeks is incredibly compact. It’s 9 mm thick and weighs under 140 g, making it effortless to keep on hand. The Weeks Mega (only available in January-start) is 384 pages, 13 mm thick, and weighs 190 g.

*As the Weeks does not lay completely flat by itself, hold it down lightly with your hand as you write.

The Weeks is about the size of a ladies’ wallet. It may look slim, but the surface area of a page is actually nearly the same as the A6 Planner and Original. The book fits perfectly into a suit pocket or bag.

The thin, light paper, called Tomoe River paper, is strong and resistant to bleeding ― an ideal choice for a planner. The Weeks contains a cream-colored paper variant that’s easy on the eyes when used outdoors.

The Weeks lineup offers a wide variety of designs on each book cover. Even after you pick out your favorite design, there are empty Weeks covers that hold your book and let you change things up and add pockets.

The front cover of each Weeks planner is embossed with the current year in a way that complements the color scheme of each design.

The spine of the Weeks book is embossed with “2023” for easy reference when storing the planner in a bookshelf.

(A small selection of covers is not embossed.)

The Weeks has the logo embossed on the back cover.

The endpaper is designed with the letters from Hobonichi’s logo — shortened to HOBO — arranged in a chic design.

The Weeks includes two bookmarks you can use to hold your place in commonly-used pages.

This clear pocket makes it easy to carry around loose notes or sticker sheets. It comes unattached, so peel off the back paper and stick it on the back (or front) endpaper if you’d like to use it.

The serial number on the inside back cover gives each planner a unique identity, and makes your planner your very own special book.
