Pocket-sized at 9 by 14 cm, this Moleskine holds 192 blank pages inside a soft cover. There are no ruled lines, so the pages take sketches, diagrams and layout ideas as readily as written notes. An elastic band closes the book, a ribbon marker holds the current page, and an inner pocket at the back stores tickets, cards or folded paper.

The point of the pocket format is that it travels in a jacket rather than a bag, which makes it the notebook people actually have with them when something needs writing down. The soft cover flexes, so it survives being carried loose, and the paper and PU construction keeps the whole thing light. Colours run from black and blue to red, lime, turquoise and khaki.

As a gift it fits situations where the item has to be small and still feel considered: conference giveaways where bags are already full, a component in an executive gift set beside a pen, thank-you gifts after client workshops, and creative agency or design studio audiences who prefer blank pages to lines.

MerchRepublic brands the cover with your logo and quotes the format in campaign quantities, whether that is a few dozen for a board meeting or several thousand for an event series. Branded orders are delivered to companies throughout the European Union.
