Perfectly imperfect: our imperfect notebooks have minor cover imperfections (unless otherwise stated) while staying completely in-tact on the inside.

Please note: These notebooks do not come with rounded corners. We are working on updating the website photos. We're working on making this possible for future editions! At present, the rounding process would have cut off the page numbers.

Our new Cloth Flex Cover consists of our sustainable, aqueous-coated weave cover, creating a light, flexible book. Plus, all our cloth and paper flex notebooks feature new rounded corners.

With 288 pages of our new 70gsm Archivist paper, you can let your creativity flow. The A5 size (the size of a Moleskine or average Bullet Journal) is designed for portable sophistication!

All our journals are crafted in Canada with high-quality materials, so you can feel good about using them.

Please note: Archivist 70gsm is a work in progress. This is our first recipe trial and we are attempting to optimize for minimal show-through (ghosting), durability, and fountain pen friendliness. We are looking for feedback and researching future modifications to improve sheen and fluidity.

Available in limited edition colours. Once they are gone, they are not restocked.

Cloth and paper flex books do not include ribbon markers due to their construction.
