Recycled Leather Zip Organizer is made of upcycled leather material produced by Salamander Company in Germany. As a process of producing this material, Salamander Company collects the unused leather pieces from leather product production from many different leather product industries, shreds the undesirable leather into small fibers, then bonds them together to create a new sheet of upcycled leather. The result is a beautifully tactile material that has an even look and feel of the cork-like sheet.

TSL has incorporated this upcycled leather material to create their signature Zip Organizer that can host your favorite A5 size notebook as well as your credit cards, coins, checkbook, and other analogue essentials.

Inside left panel has pockets and flaps in different sizes, and the right-side panel features a gusseted zipper pocket as well as credit card size pockets. When you move from one place to another with your organizer, you can zip up the entire organizer to ensure that everything inside is secure.

The standard A5 size Notebook, including Hobonichi Cousin and MD Notebooks, works well with this organizer and Jibun Techo A5 slim. If you are using a regular A5 size notebook, we recommend only inserting one side of the notebook cover (as opposed to both the front and back cover) and pushing the cover you are inserting to the edge of the leather to avoid the zipper catching the corners of your notebook.

TSL's artifacts are made in the Superior Labor studio in Okayama prefecture, where they turned an old elementary school into a unique workshop space.

[LIFE] Noble Grid Notebook (A5)

TSL artifacts are handmade with love and care by The Superior Labor in Okayama, Japan. The TSL team works diligently to honor recycled leather as organic material, making sure to minimize production waste. As a result, some of the TSL artifacts feature natural markings. We hope you enjoy all of the characters for many years ahead as leather ages and patinas.
