These meticulously-constructed minä perhonen patchwork covers use textile pieces left over from the creation of various minä perhonen apparel and accessories. The fabrics come in up to 8 (Original) or 11 (Cousin) different styles per cover, with every piece a very different material, thickness, texture and design. This variety of soft textiles makes an incredibly interesting yet comforting cover.

The Henry Cuir collaboration covers have been a part of the Hobonichi Techo lineup since 2009. The leather has been vegetable-tanned by hand to allow the color and luster to deepen over years of use. The covers have also been assembled by hand. This year’s Henry Cuir covers use soft, textured, top quality cowhide leather, and the deep green Verde Militare color option is new to this year’s lineup.
