The Midori Grain memo pad is the beautifully crafted product of a collaboration between Spain and Japan. Recycled leather is sourced from workshops in Spain, and crafted in Japan into durable covers. The natural cowhide fibers provide rich color and texture, and are rub-resistant and colorfast.

Inside each memo pad, there are two types of paper: 50 sheets of lined white paper, and 50 sheets of blank cream-colored paper. In the lined section, brown lines are printed on both sides of the page. Every fifth line is bold, dividing each page into four sections. There are endless possibilities for this unique layout. You can plan your schedule using one page per month (each section is a week), or two pages per week (seven sections for the days plus one section for notes), or categorize your to-do's into neat sections.

Writing on the front and back of each sheet is easy, because the twin ring binding keeps your memo pad laying flat. Rounded corners keep the pad from catching as you slip it into your pocket or bag, while a brown elastic band holds the entire memo book together securely.
