The A5 Taschenbegleiter SO_20 is a soft leather portfolio-style cover, with this one in a gorgeous smoke blue leather that looks alternately navy blue and dark grey, depending on the light. It features a honey suede interior with three pockets for holding cards and papers on the front insider cover, as well as a larger zippered pocket inside the back cover. Three pairs of clips hold an A5 notebook, all magazines and booklets, as well as folded A4 sheets.

• Large zippered pocket can carry your smartphone, ID, and additional papers, among other things.

• The stainless steel clips can be open and closed with a fingertip. The clips may be used to hold notebooks from most manufacturers who use standard sizing, and may also be used to hold loose papers, receipts, calendars, and magazines, or as a bookmark. The clips are manufactured in Bavaria, Germany.

• The chrome-free leather exterior carries the German Ecolabel BLUE ANGEL. It comes from a German tannery and is a beautiful combination of nubuck and aniline leather with a very soft feel. By lightly polishing the surface and very skillfully spraying it with natural oils and waxes during the final fulling, a very exciting flat sheen effect is created. A vibrant leather with visible natural features.

• Suede leather interior is chrome-free suede that Roterfaden sources from a German Tannery. It is designed to provide a comfortable writing surface and is slightly thinner than felt interior.

Made in Germany. The Roterfaden Taschenbegleiter does not ship with any refills, which must be purchased separately.
