Product Information

The Oaknook Soft Cover A5 Notebook has a soft leather cover that bends with a bag rather than fighting it. It is the kind of notebook that survives being carried every day, as opposed to the rigid one that lives on a shelf because it is too precious or too awkward to take anywhere. Hard covers protect pages, which sounds like an advantage until the notebook has to fit alongside a laptop in a bag that is already full.

The cover softens further with handling and takes on the marks of being used, which is the entire argument for a soft cover over a hard one. A year in, it looks like it belongs to you rather than like it came off a shelf last week. A soft cover flexes into the space that is left, which in practice means it comes with you rather than being left behind on the days the bag is tight.

A5 pages are large enough for real work and small enough to hold in one hand while standing. The binding lies flat when open, so you can write across the full width of a spread without holding the page down. Four cover finishes are available. A5 with a soft cover is the format most people settle on after trying several, being large enough to think on and small enough to carry without deciding to.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it fit in a full bag?

Yes, that is the point of the soft cover. It flexes into whatever space is left rather than fighting the bag, so it comes with you on the days a hard cover would be left behind.

Does it lie flat when open?

It does. The binding lies flat, so you can write across the full width of a spread without holding the page down.

What size are the pages?

They are A5, which is large enough for real work and small enough to hold in one hand while standing.

Will the cover wear over time?

It softens further with handling and takes on the marks of use, which is the appeal. Within a year it looks like it belongs to you rather than fresh off a shelf.

Is there a choice of cover?

Yes. Four cover finishes are available, so you can pick the one that suits you.
