In the past, our leather covers were mainly divided into **Belgian vegetable-tanned leather** and **Italian glossy vegetable-tanned leather**. This year's limited suede edition Features a timeless army green color, With a softer visual and tactile feel. It's scratch-resistant and easy to maintain. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54164194640_e3a6496cfb_z.jpg The deep earth tones paired with the bright orange, super-elastic band Are reminiscent of sunset glow amidst the pampas grass, Truly a favorite of ours. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54164048954_f2a313e430_z.jpg This special leather is available in a strictly limited quantity of one. It may only be produced this year, And might not be available next year. For those with a distinctive style, this is an opportunity not to be missed. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54162862747_eba9917ab1_z.jpg ▓ **Product Features** ▓ ★〖**Raw Cowhide**〗★ The edges are left intentionally unfinished and unglued, allowing the leather's natural fiber structure to be seen. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51782314634_3a70033230_o.jpg Elaborate surface treatments Can often obscure the leather's original character. Rather than excessive refinement, X17 prioritizes a natural, practical approach, Preferring to retain its inherent qualities. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51781919353_bd4e3ac498_z.jpg **__Inner Cover Surface Treatment__** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51787440249_b3b37f4798.jpg **(Image Above) **X17** Leather Cover Interior** ★ Grooves are intentionally crafted on both the front and back of the leather's inner surface, Allowing the notebook to lie flatter and feel slimmer when closed. **__Robust Corners for Lasting Protection__** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51782437769_bf3f473247_c.jpg The longer you use it, Even as the leather softens to the touch, The exterior remains firm and shapely. The unyielding corners, in particular, Ensure the inner pages are fully protected from damage. ★〖**Organize Your Thoughts, Create Your Collection**〗 ★ When using refillable notebooks, do you experience these frustrations? https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51561079555_b0482b39a9_w.jpg ▪ Repeated flipping causes hole damage, requiring the purchase of hole protectors. ▪ The opening and closing mechanism of the ring binder can create unpleasant noises in quiet spaces. ▪ The ring mechanism can obstruct hand movement when writing directly on the bound pages. ▪ Writing is limited to unfolding pages one by one, restricting the writing area. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51564036516_f0523cb3a4_n.jpg Loose-leaf pages are eventually assembled into a book, So why not start with a "bound" format? X17 breaks the limitations of loose pages With a concept of **assembled binding**. You can freely categorize different themes, Making it easier to group related subjects yourself. ★〖**High-Tech X Elastic Band**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51786003477_e3ce03d7bd_z.jpg The X17 elastic band differs from standard rubber. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51781925593_3f0e7da379_o.jpg Drawing from Germany's automotive industry, a pillar of its economy, It's crafted from high-tech rubber, **the same material used in hydraulic seals**. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51781676366_90f2589bbd_z.jpg With excellent **elasticity** and **crack resistance**, It blends technology and artistry, Achieving unparalleled performance. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51782557460_bc81c13387_o.jpg ★〖**Patented Semi-Circular Notch**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51780863547_d9bc6b90d6_o.jpg This firmly secures the inner pages to the outer cover, Much like a book binding; https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51782314604_246349cda6_z.jpg Not only does the leather cover have a semi-circular notch, But the **inner pages do too**. This allows the entire notebook to lay flat for comfortable writing. **A small semi-circular hole on the side also secures the contents horizontally.** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51784177011_0e475d1926.jpg ★〖**Write Flat Without Removing Pages**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51781925718_1760cb0bb0_c.jpg There's no need to remove the inner pages, Nor is there a break-in period. Whether you're left-handed or right-handed, You won't be bothered by the **ring binder mechanism**. From the moment you receive it, You can write comfortably, As if writing in a hardcover book. ★〖**Hand-Bound Inner Pages**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51561087940_244d771c5f_o.jpg The X17 leather covers and inner pages Both feature semi-circular indentations at the top and bottom. This special design Cannot be assembled with large machinery; Instead, each book is secured manually. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vV1XsxGbhe0 ** P.S. We recommend using X17 specific sized inserts. Inserts from other brands may not fit properly or may exceed the cover's dimensions.** ★〖**Custom-Made Munken Paper**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54162862797_0b3e2113a8_b.jpg Germany is a powerhouse in fountain pen manufacturing, So fountain pen usage is naturally widespread. Without the right paper, Even the most exquisite fountain pen loses its luster. In progressive countries like those in Europe, the Americas, and Japan, Most books and advertisements use Munken paper. The original producer of Munken paper Was located in Munkdal, Sweden, And is known in the printing industry simply as "Munken." For its main product, the light and portable X17, To achieve the highest standards, We initiated a proprietary paper development project. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51564644679_6ddfba41f9_z.jpg The paper must **hold ink well**, be **smooth to write on**, **not bleed through**, **not cause skipping**, and **not scratch the surface**. We've opted against overly bleached paper, Choosing a **natural off-white** that is easier on the eyes. After testing over a hundred types of paper, We developed X17's own Munken paper: **low grammage**, **high quality**, and **excellent ink retention**. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51564201233_0b4317cb55.jpg ► __**MUNKEN** Characteristics__: ❒ The paper has a fine, smooth surface feel. ❒ Uncoated, with strong ink absorption. ❒ Free from chlorine and fluorescent brighteners; the paper has an antique, natural light beige color. ❒ Low reflectivity, reducing visual fatigue during extended writing or reading. ❒ Slightly alkaline pH allows for long-term preservation without degradation. ❒ 30% lighter than ordinary paper, making it more portable. ❒ Made from chemical pulp, it is an environmentally friendly product with no pollution. ★〖**Maximize Every Inch of Space**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51786003027_7d32c605ef_o.jpg What sets X17 inner pages apart from other brands Is that the **inner pages are almost the exact same size as the cover**. ◆◇ Writing space in standard notebooks ◇◆ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51787692995_f8c039f642_z.jpg ◆◇ Even less writing space in ring-binder notebooks ◇◆ ☆ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51794687322_078f244d49_z.jpg What sets X17 inner pages apart from other brands Is that the **inner pages are almost the exact same size as the cover**. ☆ **While X17 achieves a minimalist storage space**, **the number of writing lines on the inner pages has actually increased** ☆ , Fully embodying the "LESS IS MORE" minimalist philosophy. ★〖**Rare Index Page Within Removable Inserts**〗★ It's easy to take apart a notebook, But reassembling it can be challenging. For refillable bound notebooks, how do you organize and categorize? With its focus on systematic structure, X17 has already considered this. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51564943660_8e27bf9e21_z.jpg Regardless of whether you use the A7, A6, or A5 size X17, Each notebook contains a user-friendly 62 pages. The page numbers at the bottom of each page Facilitate easy indexing and organization later on. ★〖**Invisible Perforated Inner Pages**〗★ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51579737666_65291f72e5_o.jpg Each inner page is tearable, with a barely visible **hidden perforation line**. This is especially convenient when you need to re-organize your notes. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51781800191_e75091190f.jpg ★ Other inner page sizes are also available to mix and match with X17 leather covers ★ **Five specialized (inner page) sizes: A7 / A6 / A5 / A5 Landscape / A4** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51780863522_64fcfdd5c3_o.jpg ■ Product Size Comparison Chart ■ https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51782654685_97dcb6779a_c.jpg The "words worth a thousand pieces of gold" that we pursue Often emerge in the most unexpected moments.
