Hobonichi Cover Tragen: Red (Weeks)
„Carry” is the German word for what this cover does: it carries – the Weeks planner, pens, cards, everything you need on the go. Soft nylon on the outside in vibrant, luminous red, accents in cowhide leather, polyester lining inside. The triple-fold cover opens flat and weighs only about 85 g, barely noticeable in your bag.
Special Features
- Spacious zip pocket with bottom gusset: The exterior pocket sits on top of the cover and is equipped with a bottom gusset – this provides volume for several pens at once, and thicker writing instruments or small accessories like a ruler or correction roller fit inside too.
- Magnetic closure with leather buffer: The cover closes with a hidden magnet, padded with a leather patch – this protects delicate pen barrels and feels pleasant in your palm.
- Leather zipper pull: The zipper pull of the exterior pocket is made from cowhide leather – a small detail that makes one-handed opening significantly more pleasant.
- Interior pen holder: A clip hook inside secures a pen when you close the cover – it fills the cover nicely when closed without creating a bulge.
- Soft nylon with fine shimmer: The fabric feels smooth and light, but has a textured surface with a discreet sheen – the luminous red tone is present without being loud.
- Compatible with Weeks and Weeks Mega: The cover accommodates both formats, even when the Mega planner becomes fuller over the year with sticky notes and inserts.
Use & Tips
- Pen configuration: The gusset of the zip pocket provides space for three to four pens, even if they include a fineliner, a highlighter, and a ballpoint pen. Slimmer writing instruments – such as mechanical pencils or thin gel rollers – can additionally be hung in the clip hook.
- On-the-go setup: Inside the cover are card slots and a leather interior pocket – ideal for business cards, train tickets, or a folded receipt. The back side offers another flat pocket, large enough for a Hobonichi Weeks Memo Pad.
- Care: Nylon can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. The leather details should not get wet; a little bit of leather care keeps the zipper pull and magnet patch supple.
- Color mood: The red of the Tragen cover is warm and saturated – immediately findable on a desk or shelf, in everyday use a conscious color statement without compromise.
For Hobonichi Enthusiasts
The Tragen cover deliberately bears the German term in its name – and that's no accident: Hobonichi designed it from the ground up as a carrying system, not just as a protective cover. Hand-stitched manufacturing means that dimensions can vary minimally from piece to piece – that's handcrafted work, not a defect. The „HANDWRITE” tags on the interior and exterior pockets, printed with a pen drawing, are a small typical Hobonichi detail: a wink to everyone who writes with real pen on real paper.
