WANDERINGS A5 Travelers Notebook/Handcrafted Genuine Leather Journal - 6"x8.5"/15cmx22cm. This Refillable Travel Journal is Rugged Enough to Capture All Life's Adventures. 120 GSM Blank Inserts

Received my A5 leather notebook cover with three plain books, packaging was substantial and no damage at all. Upon opening the cardboard outer I was greeted by a beautiful leather cover, the three books were already inserted and all sat within the cover itself. The leather is very good quality both outside and inside, it gives great coverage to three notebooks with enough overlap to protect them, the notebooks are slightly smaller than other A5 notebooks I have so I will purchase refills from Wanderings...which is no problem as the paper is great, no bleed or feathering when using a fountain pen. I have a few other travellers notebooks from different companies and this is the first A5 one I have bought, I am very impressed with the storage capacity, the materials are excellent quality and the size is great, easier to write in due to the wider pages compared to the Standard size travellers notebooks. Highly recommended!

I'm so happy to have found this! I tried a few, but not many available with this filling string mechanism whereby you can fill it with more than one notebook insert, and the others I tried could not fit standard A5 notebooks in papers I prefer. The quality of this leather journal cover is gorgeous, it's very thick and soft and high quality. It's amazing value for money, especially as it comes with 3 notepad inserts supplied. I didn't want to write on blank paper, so I've just filled it with 3 x A5 Clairefontaine notebooks, which fit perfectly, and above all this is what I eonter a leather cover for. Couldn't find one the right size anywhere else. After I took the 3 supplied inserts out, I found it a bit tricky to work out how to get the 3rd of my books in. The first 2 were easy. Thankfully, they provide a really helpful product video, showing how you fill it, and I was able to work it out after watching that. I enclosed photos. It's absolutely perfect for my needs, and such beautiful quality. This is the 3rd brand I purchased, and the only one which is suitable and wasn't misdescribed for fitting actual A5. Many thanks to the seller for answering my pre-purchase query. I think this is the best leather notebook cover on the market.

I was so thrilled when this arrived - I’d been looking for a large travellers notebook to keep for life, and this is great quality and does the same job as the ones 4x the price. Can’t wait to see how it ages with use and fill it up. I also bought 3 ruled inserts as this comes with plain inserts. Paper quality is lovely. Very happy!

This is a very well made item. The leather is lovely in the outside and the paper quality really nice. I’ve knocked one star off because I wanted leather on both sides. This is definitely leather on the outside but then it has a cotton like coating on the inside. I emailed Wanderings and they said it was to keep it affordable. But I’d have paid more for a thicker leather in both sides.

Bought as a gift for my son when he went travelling. He loved it. I got a selection of plain and lined paper so that he could write, doodle and stick things in to create himself a fab keepsake of his travels. Great quality, very stylish design. Easy to add in notepaper and to remove. Great gift. Really pleased with it.

This is a beautiful and adaptable journal. The leather cover is soft and ages well. It will mark, but that's part of the charm of leather. The paper for the inserts is good quality and quite thick - ink hasn't bled through. It's useful that you can fit any A5 size notebook inside if you choose not to use Wanderings own booklets (though I haven't tried that yet). Wanderings provides plain, lined and dotted. Fitting the booklets can be a little fiddly the first time, but there are videos to show you how. The elastic for holding the journal closed seems fairly hardy, but you can buy new ones separately if needed over time. The whole seems quite sturdy so I'm looking forward to years of use.

Beautiful book! My son loves it for college. Just about everything he needs stating it's handy for changing books & refills. Leather is good quality & well made throughout. Can get away with stressed look for several years I believe.

I recently purchased the Large Leather Refillable Journal and the Pocket Leather Passport Size Journal from the Wanderings Notebooks selection, (Black Mountain Company). The products arrived on time and carefully packaged. Both items are of very high quality of a rustic nature with a classic look. They "scuff" for that more individual appearance, which, wipes away easily should you prefer. I prefer the "worn in look" so they are ideal for me. Beautiful items with a large capacity and refillable. Perfect. The smell of the leather also gives them the sense of the classic days of old, absolutely marvellous. The after service from Scott is also a very welcome addition. An email before my purchase arrived with a PDF attachment with FAQ's where to purchase refills and instructions on how to refill my Journals was something unexpected and a pleasant surprise. An email after my items arrived inquiring if I was satisfied with my order, another welcome surprise. If you are looking for high quality leather journals and service, look no further than Wanderings Notebooks and Scott. They will provide you with quality products and excellent service.

Wanderings maakt een topproduct. Het omslagelastiek zit in de rug geknoopt en niet op de achterkant, zodat er geen vervelende bult onder je pagina ligt. Ook hun inserts zijn van betere kwaliteit. Deze boekjes zijn genaaid in plaats van geniet. Het kompas is een leuke decoratie voor een reisverslag, geschikt voor alle soorten reizen.

Great quality leather that feels nice to touch - smooth and soft. It's easy to swap out journal inserts if you want to. Mine arrived with a slight scratch on the cover and the closing elastic a bit loose feeling but otherwise a good journal of a good size.

This Wanderer's Grande, although it sounds like a Starbuck's coffee, is really a superior personal journal. It arrived promptly and absolutely beautifully packaged. As a gift, it will easily convince any recipient of the giver's admiration and respect. Utterly top quality. The touchable cover is so luxurious and leathery that the cow who provided it must be proud as punch. The paper (easily replaceable with blank, dotted or lined inserts, making it a lifelong treasure) is substantial in weight with a nicely finished surface that doesn't bleed through. It underscores and complements any budding author's self-acknowledged genius. Honestly, as a journal, it is so nice and pristine that I carried this book around for three days, afraid to write in it for fear of making a spelling error and ruining the first page. When I finally did force myself to sit down and write the date, April 7th, to enter my first witty observation, the thing I noticed almost immediately, was that the date was actually May 7th and I had already messed up my perfect clever beginning. This one journal, even with its opening entry that smacks of obvious stupid overconfidence, has replaced several smaller notebooks and journals as my go-to place to keep the data, notes and sketches that make my life so fascinating and enviable. You won't go wrong with this unless you get so bewildered that you forget where (and when) you are in the space/time continuum. 10/10 with a star, a cross and a bullet. I recommend it highly. This is the one. No kidding. It is so beautiful it's intimidating, especially for perfectionists, and folk like me who have a very big whatchamacallit - list of words that we know.

I felt in love.... very nice notebook.

Bra på vissa sätt att den tar A6 vilket medför att man får in Almanacksförlagets Vanliga almanacka i A6-format. Däremot går den inte ner i bakfickan på jeansen. Tyvärr tillverkad i Kina. Efter knappt ett års användning noterar jag en regelbunden vävbas i "lädret". Det får mig att tro att det inte handlar om läder från djur, vilket vi i Västeuropa kallar äkta läder. Jag gissar att det istället är konstgjort läder, vilket kineser ibland kallar "real genuine leather". Om man har problem med fuskläder får var och en spekulant avgöra själv, men ärlighet i produktpresentationen vore klädsamt.
