This is the Earthworks Journals A6 (standard size) Distressed Blue Leather Wraparound Travel Journal. We have made this journal from a natural, vegetable tanned, full grain leather. This leather comes to us in pristine condition and we put it through various dying and staining techniques to give it a distressed look. We've gone for the look of that favourite pair of battered old jeans that you just cannot bear to part with for this journal, it has shades of blue, brown and grey. We finish the rustic look by leaving the natural edge of the hide on the wraparound flap, each one of these will be unique, some will have quite a straight edge, some will have a bit of a slant and some will be irregular. As it is the natural edge of the leather you might even find small scars, cuts or even holes on this edge. You can see in the images how much they can vary. This is the sort of journal that you can throw in your rucksack without worrying too much about it. The wraparound cover encloses the paper and is held in place with thonging that we make from the same leather, this makes a pen loop on the inside of the cover.

The supple but very sturdy leather makes this a perfect travel journal, even though it's a smaller size there's plenty of pages to write down your adventures. It's lightweight and squashes into small spaces so it's great for those travelling light.
