I’m in the process of setting up my various planners/notebooks/pens/other writing and “productivity” gear for 2022, and if you’re currently doing the same, I’m happy to offer 10% off certain products through 12/31 to lend a hand. (Selfishly, I also want to clear out some inventory before I have to count over the weekend). In addition to an automatic 10% off all planners, for the next two days you can take 10% off Hightide Book Stands, Sandglasses, and Pen Trays, as well as all reading accessories from Book Darts and WMS & Co! All year-end discounts are automatically applied at checkout, so no need to use a coupon code.
A few other things to note in the Curated Shop:
Caran d’Ache Infinite 888 Ballpoints and Mechanical Pencils. I understand that these have been discontinued, and the shipment I just received will be my last. These are exceptional ballpoints and mechanical pencils at $6 each. Read more here.
Tomoe River Paper. I have a large supply of the Traveler’s Company “Lightweight Paper” refills in both Standard size and Passport size, which use Tomoe River 52gsm writing paper. As you may have heard elsewhere, production is being moved to a new company and a revamped paper should hit the market in 2022, but it won’t be quite the same. Of course, we also carry the full line of Traveler’s Company products, including Traveler’s Notebooks and the “TRC Brass” series of pens and accessories. Traveler’s Notebooks are incredibly versatile tools that I use every day in my own personal and professional life.
Life Stationery. In addition to the Life x Kleid “Noble Note” notebooks, we carry Life Writing Pads featuring not only standard Noble Note paper but Bank Paper and Typewriter Paper! Life is one of the more commonly overlooked Japanese stationery brands (undeservedly so).
CW+T Pen Type-C. Don’t sleep on this flat bookmark-style pen from CW+T, which uses the Hi-Tec-C Coleto multi-pen refill. I plan to post a full review in the coming weeks, but I’ve been doing a LOT of notetaking with this one lately. We are also fully restocked on the Pen Type-A and Pen Type-B, including a couple of the coveted Black Cerakote versions.
Field Notes Pocket Notebooks. We still have limited remaining stock of the “Fifty” and “Trailhead” editions, as well as a lot of the absolutely gorgeous “United States of Letterpress” and “National Parks” Editions, two of my favorites they’ve done over the past few years.
Your support matters and is greatly appreciated! Last year I decided to cut the cord on paid advertising and third-party sponsorship, and move T.G.S. in the direction of becoming self-sustaining so that I have more control over the direction of my content and the practices I’m encouraging. To that end, I launched the T.G.S. Patreon Program, which allows readers to support and engage with T.G.S. and other readers in a more direct way, as well as the T.G.S. Curated Shop, which lets me directly promote a select group of products that I believe dovetails with my core mission statement.
