Traveler's Notebook "016" binder

The filing folder "016" is the archive system for the Traveler's Notebook in Passport format. Made from sturdy cardboard with aluminum-reinforced edges and steel metal bars, it holds up to five completed Passport refills – threaded non-destructively and securely stored. Compact enough for the shelf, sturdy enough for on the go.

Special Features

• Capacity for five refills: The steel bars clamp the booklets exactly as they do in the Traveler's Notebook itself – inserting takes seconds, without glue, holes, or damage.
• Aluminum-reinforced edges: The metal reinforcement protects the cardboard edges from crushing and bending, so the folder maintains its shape even after years and many refills.
• Sturdy cardboard: The outer shell is stiff enough to keep the bound booklets flat – no warping, no bending of stacked refills.
• Passport format: Dimensions 14.4 × 10.5 × 4 cm – compatible with all Passport refills from Traveler's Company (and compatible third-party formats of the same size).
• Made in Japan: Produced by Traveler's Company to the same quality standards as the notebooks themselves.

Application & Tips

• Chronological archive: Completed refills bound chronologically create a compact diary archive – five booklets per folder, multiple folders on the shelf form a continuous timeline.
• Travel documentation: Transfer travel refills to the folder after returning home: tickets, glued memorabilia, and notes stay together and protected.
• Sketches and drawings: Those using dot-grid or blank refills for illustrations can store completed series bundled together without having to stack loose booklets individually.
• Mixed filling: The folder holds different refill types simultaneously – for example, a weekly calendar refill together with notebooks from the same period.
• Decoration: The cardboard cover can be decorated with stamps, washi tape, or stickers – as a visual marker for the period or travel destination contained.

For Traveler's Notebook Enthusiasts

Inserting the refills follows exactly the same mechanism as in the leather cover: the steel bars grip the spine folds of the booklets. This means refills can be rearranged or removed at any time – even after years – without leaving any marks of damage. Those maintaining multiple folders can label and decorate them with the same system as the notebook covers themselves, since format and surface can be treated identically.
