The Superior Labor - Stamped Series Note Keeper - A5 Notebook Cover

The Superior Labor - Stamped Series - A5 Notebook Cover

Notebook covers can feel plain, but this one brings personality with its bold embossed logo and the natural charm of leather that slowly develops its own look. Pen holders on both the front and back let you keep the notebook closed by passing a pen through both loops, or you can use them individually to carry two pens.

Crafted from pit-tanned leather, it showcases the raw beauty of the hide and grows richer over time. Pit tanning is a slow, traditional process that uses plant-based tannins to thoroughly tan the leather over weeks or months, resulting in material that is firm, durable, and full of character. The more you handle it, the more it softens, shines, and becomes uniquely yours—turning daily use into part of its story.

About The Superior Labor:

Founded by former auto mechanic and leather artisan Makoto Kawai, this lifestyle brand crafts a variety of high-quality everyday tools that promote slow and intentional living. Kawai considers The Superior Labor as a natural extension of his experience working with cars, crafting leather goods, traveling, and curating vintage wares. All of The Superior Labor’s design and manufacturing takes place in a former elementary school campus in the rural and mountainous area of Kaga-gun, Okayama Prefecture, where Kawai lives and works. Called “nap village,” it welcomes visitors to come and experience The Superior Labor’s living and crafting philosophy while exploring the wonderful nature of Mount Hongu.
