MD Paper Products, which has now spun off into its own division of the Midori/DesignPhil stationery empire, recently launched a new product labeled “MD Paper Thick”. Described as “around twice as thick as standard MD Paper,” and “providing further protection against ink bleeding through or being visible from the other side of the page,” this paper is marketed towards those who use heavy pressure, extremely thick fountain pen nibs, folded nibs, and brushes or brush pens. Paint and markers are also apparently ok on this new paper. Currently only available in a blank A5 format, the “Thick” notebooks still feature 96 pages, and incorporate a codex-style binding (similar to the day-to-a-page “Codex” notebooks) that allows the notebooks to lie flat, even with the thicker paper.
We also recently restocked on nearly all Traveler’s Notebook accessories and refills, including the limited edition Tokyo refills and the Traveler’s Company MD Paper Spiral Notebooks. We currently have all undated planner refills in stock, with the 2025 dated planner refills to arrive later this week.
