*This is for a COVER only.

This techo cover is designed to offer users a simplified cover for their book. The cover excludes standards from our usual covers, including the pockets and butterfly stoppers, and instead prioritizes being compact and portable. The cover material is made with faux leather for easy use.

The front cover includes the short message “Only is not lonely.” This phrase was coined as a slogan in 1998 when Hobo Nikkan Itoi Shinbun was founded. What you write inside this techo is yours alone, and no one else can write it. The hope is this cover can feel like a sort of good-luck charm as you carry it with you each day, and the message on the cover helps serve that purpose. The cover is a chocolate brown for a basic look that’s easy for anyone to carry around. The message is foil-pressed in gold, and the elastic band is red to match well with the brown. The calming yet energizing color scheme is quite appealing. The elastic band is designed to keep the cover shut inside your bag. It also includes a hook that can hold a pen by its clip. There’s also a short message in the spot where you insert the cover of your techo book.

Color and print may vary slightly. This material is first printed or dyed and then later sewn onto the cover. While colors are designed to be consistent, there may be uneven coloring or slight shade variances between covers. This may also happen across a single cover, such as a pocket compared to the rest of the cover. In addition, on rare occasions, there may be small black or white dots visible on the print. This is an unavoidable aspect of the manufacturing process.
Cover may contain variations in stitching or loose lining. Due to the structure of the cover that opens flat 180 degrees, exterior stitching areas may appear puckered and lining material may be loose.
Pen holders are rigid at first. The pen holders are rigid at first, making it difficult to insert pens. You can speed up the breaking-in process by rolling the pen holders in your hand.
