Built to endure every journey—from city paths to forest trails.

Designed for creators who roam, this journal combines sturdy Crazy Horse leather with a format made for life outdoors. The velvety cover develops a rich, rugged patina as it travels with you, while its larger 16×24cm size gives you room to think, sketch, and explore freely.

Inside, five strong signatures hold 200 unlined pages of 125gsm cotton paper made from upcycled textiles. The paper handles drawing, ink, markers, scrapbooking, and light wet techniques with ease—perfect for field notes, nature sketches, and on‑the‑go creativity.

A generous spine allows you to tuck in maps, leaves, photos, and found treasures without straining the binding. The long wraparound strap keeps everything secure, even on the move.

A reliable companion for travellers, hikers, artists, and anyone who wants a journal as robust, versatile, and adaptable as their adventures.

Material Guide

COVER - Buffalo leather is thick, protective, and made to last. Its natural grain celebrates authenticity, offering strength without stiffness and a reassuring weight in the hand. Over time, it develops a rich patina, softening and darkening with use. Each mark becomes part of the story — quiet evidence of a journal well travelled, shaped by journeys, hands, and moments worth keeping.

ART PAPER - Exceptional in both quality and conscience, this tree-free cotton rag paper is made from 100% upcycled textile fibres and sourced directly from a fair-trade papermaking community in the hills of India. Each sheet is mould-made, sun-dried, and finished with softly deckled edges, preserving traditional skills while supporting ethical livelihoods. Lightly textured yet beautifully stable, it offers excellent performance across all media, making it as versatile as it is sustainable.

Binding

Style: SADDLE and DAISY BINDING (PAMPHLET)

Fact: Pamphlet binding is an ancient, durable technique dating to the 4th century, formed by sewing a single folded section directly through the spine to a leather cover. Using simple 3–6 hole sewing patterns—chosen according to thickness—it creates a strong, flexible book that opens completely flat, ideal for journals, music, or zines. While classically straight-sewn (Saddle), the structure can be enhanced with daisy stitching or multiple signatures joined to a cover for added strength and character.
