I'm a big fan of the A4 Clairefontaine Clothbound Notebooks (96 sheets, lined, 90gr). I'm looking for a cover and can't find anything that is not leather. The Saddleboot Notebook Covers from Franklin-Christoph are great but a little expensive for my taste (90$). Hobonishi covers look great but the largest format is A5... any suggestion?

I've read good things about the Muji Denim Tag notebook covers. Do they make them in A4 size?

Go to Etsy. Google "notebook covers" or "journal covers" or similar. Find ones you really like. Send a note to the seller asking if they will make you one in the size you need.

I've done that for my Hobonichi. Works like a charm and got a lovely cover at a fraction of the price of the "official" ones. ;)

Have you checked Etsy? Surely there are A4 journal covers there. And people happy to make you one.

Great minds thinking alike, simultaneously.

Once you go down the Etsy rabbit hole there's no going back. ;)

I just told my girlfriend about Etsy. I think I have made a terrible mistake ;)
