Hobonichi Techo Leather: Olive Green Weeks [JPN Spring Start 2024]

The Hobonichi Techo Weeks size planner with one page per week. This is the April-start version with pages spanning from April 2024 up to March 2025.

This leather Weeks book features durable and comfortable cow leather for the attached cover. The shiny satin bookmark ribbons and headband on the book spine establish a slightly more elaborate construction than usual.

Olive Green uses leather that has been dyed in a deep yellow green color that evokes the image of olive leaves to create a sophisticated look. The year 2024 is foil-pressed in gold and sparkles when it catches the light.

The top and bottom of the book spine contain headbands to reinforce the binding and decoration. We chose brown and white headbands for this design.

The bookmarks are made of olive green and ivory satin ribbons with a nice sheen for a sophisticated color scheme.

The leather Weeks book comes in a specially-designed envelope to prevent sun damage.

From the 2024 April-start version for the Weeks, the book uses thin and light yet durable Tomoe River S paper. The paper has supported the Hobonichi Techo for over 20 years with its special characteristics, but it’ll be undergoing an overhaul starting with the 2024 edition techos. The paper is more resistant to bleed through, lighter despite being the same thickness, and has a smoother surface by adjusting the fibers of the paper.

The Weeks book has space for writing in plans or journal entries, and it also has 69 pages of grid paper memo pages in the back (73 pages in the English edition Weeks and the April-start version). The back of the book contains informational pages, including An Interview with Myself and Seasonal Sweets to Make at Home.
