In love with the product, well finished material overall
These is my first traveller's journal and my first purchase from here too! I really wanted to buy a leather journal cover and actually invest into one that's high in quality so I'm happy that I got this!! The color is perfect too!! The brown one was a little too expensive for me as a first purchase but the Red is so beautiful!! I plan to get a great use out of this!
An amazing product, great quality - you have earned a customer for life!
It was a very good experience, very smooth. From design finalisation to product delivery it took about a fortnight. They answered all the queries comprehensively. All the products were excatly as expected both look and quality wise. I am very glad to have had them made custom. Would definitely try some other offerings like pen cases.
The item is value for money—you won’t find such a good leather journal anywhere else at this price. I received a discount on my first order, and the item is quite excellent. The manufacturer has done a brilliant job with impressive attention to detail. For instance, the stitching on the side corners is very strong, ensuring durability for long-term use. It’s made of soft premium leather, and you can feel the premium leather quality the moment you hold it. The craft paper inside is also of excellent quality, and they’ve used really good GSM for the note paper as well. I ordered this in A6 size, which is quite compact, so you can carry it with you anywhere. The pouch is also quite good, allowing you to store it safely wherever you go. I really liked it in the red colour. Lastly, thank you for providing me with this at an affordable price. If I need to purchase any leather journal-related accessories in the future, I’ll definitely buy from here again.
Feels smooth and very well made, and fits inside the leather cover well :) would definitely recommend.
The sleeve is just as advertised, leather is genuine and very good quality. It will fit in pen of any size and thickness. The only downside is that the flap is a bit loose whereas it should be a bit tight,
I have been looking for a good traveler’s notebook and this one is it! I got one from their refurb collection and I’m so happy with my choice. It’s honestly perfect.
The leather feels really nice and smooth and sturdy and the colours are exactly as shown in the pictures. It did come with elastics inside to add in inserts and even two bookmarks!
I also got their Kraft insert and that feels very well made as well.
My favourite part are the scuff marks on the pocket leather - the ‘imperfection’ makes it so much more special and really gives it character. It feels very ‘lived-in’ rather than perfect, but of course that’s a personal preference.
I absolutely love it tho! And thank you for the handwritten thank you card, such a cute little touch that made the whole experience even more special.
P.S. - the leather looks a little greenish in the pictures I uploaded but it’s a more darker brown in real life!
I bought it but was very confused about the size being comfortable for me. After receiving the product I was immediately blown away by the amazing quality! Its pleasure to just even hold the TN. the leather is high quality, the elastic is very good and not too strong and does not damage inserts binding. Over all its a perfect purchase for a journaling freak like me. I will be pairing this with their canvas pouch insert in the future.
I got the two watch roll for my two watches and it is made as per specs and with good quality material. The leather quality is exceptional and patinas nicely over time.
Thank you so much for catering to the market with high quality leather products!
The order was shipped superrr fast. I made a mistake while ordering the extra elastic bands and the team quickly helped me resolve it! I was amazed by the prompt response.
As for the product itself, it’s super high quality. You get more than what you pay for. The color is absolutely stunning, rich, dark, wine red. Thinking about the amount of detail and love they put in each creation makes me almost emotional. From the packaging to the hand written "bill" note. It’s a treat to unbox and assemble your notebooks into. Thank you for this lovely experience!
It comfortably holds 4 notebooks (I got mine from INNAXA) and the elastic book marks are such a nice touch. It’s a treat to be able to hold all your notes in one place. Thanks team TBC for bringing this joy!
I bought the journal to gift it to someone and it is absolutely beautiful. The colour looks beautiful on the leather cover which feels fantastic in its own right. Not showy, yet classy and elegant like a fine wine. I would suggest the makers to include a spare elastic band or two in the full bundle and a small guide for beginners.
Anyways, an amazing product that I would recommend to gift someone to send them on a journey of writing.
I have been searching for leather cover for my journal for a long time. A random reddit post landed my search here. Leather is of good quality and I am using it with my factory notes and a A5 journal from black canvas.
I have felt childlike joy after receiving this piece. Waited for Tropical Green to be available since quite some time! This is my 2nd purchase with Black Canvas & I'm so happy with the product received. Literally named her ELLIE! :D
As of now I can’t find any brand doing these passport size notebooks, these are the best to carry around. An alternative to field notes for India. Although it’s a bit pricey but the quality’s great. I would really like to see these in different colours and prints as we get to see in field notes.
