Product:
Handmade Crazy Horse Brown Leather Slim A5 Notebook / Planner Cover
Color/Finish:
Crazy Horse Brown / Distressed
The distressed brown color shows various brown undertones, including tan, mocha, and hickory. Crazy Horse is a very soft and less processed type of leather, it ages and softens quicker than regular leather and has a finish that feels like suede. For this reason, scratches may occur on the leather over time, depending on use. This condition is a highly sought-after feature for some leather lovers called patina. If you think these scratches will make you unhappy, we recommend that you look at our polished leather products. Read more about our leather options.
Description:
Our Handmade Leather Slim A5 Notebook Cover is the perfect way to store your daily essentials for business, study, or personal use. This simple leather case is functional, stylish, and does not have any attachments. Throughout our experience, we have learned what designs work and what designs don’t. This simple cover doesn’t have the functional risks that a more complex design may have. It keeps your notebooks and favorite pen safe and secure, preventing them from scattering in your bag.
Features:
- The elastic pen holder has a semi-leather/semi-elastic design. The elastic wraps the pen while a piece of leather is visible from the outside, giving you a secure but aesthetic design. Writing utensils of different thicknesses fit the pen holder, even the MB 149.
- When you place the notebook in the case, the piece of leather that comes under the cover is the same size as the notebook. Therefore, there is no difference in elevation on the surface while writing, and you can always write on a flat surface.
- When the notebook is in the sheath, it does not make a full opening pot thanks to the stretches on the underside of the cover.
- Two separate slots for a pen, card, paper, or ephemera.
Dimensions and Compatibility:
- Outside Dimension - 16 x 22 cm (6.3 x 8.6 inches)
- A5 softcover notebooks (hardcover notebooks may not fit as they protrude). Show all compatible notebooks.
- Galen Everyday Notebook, Stalogy 365, Life A5, Apica CD A5, Logical Prime A5, Midori MD A5, Hobonichi Cousin A5, Kleid A5, Yamamoto A5, Nanami A5, Galen Leather notebooks A5, and all softcover notebooks in A5 size.

- 100% vegetable tanned cow leather - Full Grain
- In order to make the case more elegant and lighter, the leather used in this product has been thinned, and its surface is full-grain leather.
- Cotton elastic

Customer Reviews
I’ve never really been loyal to any specific brand when it comes to leather products. I’ve tried them all (Moterm, Midori, etc)….until now. Galen is the gold standard, hands down! I was stunned at the speed with which it arrived, the packaging, the communication, and most of all the product. Just. Wow.
This leather is supple, it has been aged and loved, the craftsmanship is stunning. This fit my Hobonichi perfectly. I chose the color to compliment my Moterm apricot planner and it absolutely does. I use the word compliment because the Galen leather is the star of that show. I have included pictures so you can see the comparison.
I will only buy Galen Leather from now on. Stellar! I love your story, I love the craft and art you put into your products and I would give you 10 stars if I could. Thank you for being a breath of fresh air to do business with!
The notebook arrived very quickly which was a bonus and the packaging everything I ordered with it was very thought through! (I bought A5 Everyday book as well)
The package came with a packet of tea (which I immediately brewed and enjoyed) and a single pen sleeve which I did not even order but was very pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. I use these to take notes with my favorite fountain pen anywhere without a worry about them. The leather is great quality and feels as good as it looks!
I’ve been looking at the Galen Leather Slim Cover for about a year now and decided to finally buy it. Shipping was fast. I got it within a week.
The leather cover is so beautifully crafted that I’m thinking for buying another one!
It’s now the cover of my 2024 Hobonichi Cousin!
I ended up purchasing this cover in 3 sizes because I love the covers and this leather so much (Crazy Horse Tan). Feels and smells wonderful. Fits the notebooks that they are intended for perfectly. As always with Galen products the craftsmanship is impeccable.
This notebook cover is exactly what I wanted. The quality is beyond compare, and the price is amazing. I have a slim cover in the B6 size, as well, in navy blue, which I also love. And I also have a wallet insert in crazy horse brown that I've used for years now.
The pictures I enclosed are of my A5 size cover in crazy horse tan. They were taken inside in daylight, without a flash and without and overhead light.
I want to note that while Galen says the slim covers are designed only for softcover notebooks, I have a Rhodia webnotebook hardcover in mine. Previously, I also had a casebound Black n' Red notebook in it. The cover itself doesn't lay flat when opened with hardcover notebooks in it, but the notebooks themselves do. So I just wanted people to know that was a possibility, because it works out perfectly for me.
I also love all the goodies Galen includes with orders -- often an evil eye charm, Turkish coffee and tea, stickers, a beautiful postcard, single pen sleeves, sturdy storage boxes. It's remarkable. And their customer service is amazing. I had a question about a product, and they sent a detailed and thoughtful reply the next day.
I also love the pen loops on these covers. The leather front makes them look great, but the elastic in the back allows you to use any size pen.
I fully plan on buying more A5 slim covers in other colors when they are back in stock, as well as other Galen Leather products. In the meantime, I love knowing I have such a beautiful and durable notebook cover. I look forward to using it for years, and hopefully decades to come.
This cover is perfect: it is soft, well stitched and has gorgeous color! It fits perfectly. I love so much the care put into the details and the packaging. I also enjoyed the giveaways so much: simply lovely! Thank you so much :)
I came across Galen leather on YouTube. Fantastic reviews for this company and their products. These are the people I want to deal with. Attention to detail and customer appreciation is what it’s all about and they are amazing. I ordered the leather slim A5 notebook in coyote tan. It’s beautiful, just a wonderful piece of leather and well worth the price. I ordered my notebook on a Sunday and received it on the following Friday, five days, even though I was was informed it was likely to be two weeks ( which was no problem), I look forward to shopping with Galen Leather again and it is my pleasure to do business with these wonderful people again.
I ordered this notebook cover for my daily journal because the ones I have had in the past would not lay flat. There where buttons or bobs or whatever it made the writing surface uneven and I hated it. That was the main selling point for me with this notebook cover. It had a spot for cards and a bonus pen holder. I thought great. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because the pen holder is a little small for my Lamy Nexx fountain pen. I like using an oversized pen because it is more comfortable in my hand. This is not a fault with the planner I am sure that if you use normal sized pens then you will have no problems. Would recommend this to anyone who wants a fillable journal for writing from end to end. Great quality and worth the money without a doubt.
Great product.
Beautiful craftsmanship and good quality leather. I've had it for almost a month now but I will treasure it for years and years. Teşekkürler ♡
