The Brand: Founded in 1994 in Fukuoka, Japan by two friends—a Japanese surfer and a design aficionado—Hightide is the globally recognized stationery brand that created Penco. Hightide started Penco with just one single ballpoint pen. By now, their nostalgic analog collections encompass stationery ranging from clips to clipboards, notebooks to art supply boxes and pen cases to pens.

Description: An absolute favorite in hand, shirt or jacket pocket. The cover is sturdy and won’t get scuffed, the pages are graph paper for those diehard graph paper fans and the colors are superb! Penco always comes through.

Details: 3 1/2 x 5 inches, 100 pages, graph paper, flexible plastic cover

A Note From Erika: A nice travel notebook because it’s lightweight and the cover keeps the ideas clean!
