Custom lasered Kraft notebooks that live in your pocket, survive your day, and earn their scars.
Custom lasered Kraft notebooks that live in your pocket, survive your day, and earn their scars.
"These notebooks aren't made to look pristine. They're not meant to stay pristine. Built for the streets, workshops, and your EDC where ideas get dirty and work gets done."
Laser-etched raw kraft cover with that industrial aesthetic – no glossy finish, no fancy coating. Just honest materials that show their character from day one. Each cover is cut from unbleached cardstock and run through our laser, burning the design deep into the fibre. No two covers are identical.
The torn-edge black band isn't decoration; it's attitude. The UOS badge isn't printed on – it's burned in. The natural variations in the kraft – the flecks, the tone shifts, the raw edges – aren't flaws. They're proof it's real.
Inside you'll find space for the chaos: Creator Identity fields for when you need to remember whose notebook this is after it's been through hell. Objectives section for mapping out the next move. Lined pages that don't care if you're sketching with pencil dust or taking notes in the rain.
Born in Portsmouth. Designed with 42 years of obsessive perfectionism. Every element is intentional, functional, and built to last. This isn't mass-produced generic stationery – it's a tool for people who actually use their notebooks.
Creator Identity page – Name, contact, the basics. For when your notebook outlasts your memory of where you left it.
Objectives section – Map out what you're working towards. Goals, targets, the next move.
Lined pages – Clean, simple, ready for whatever you throw at them. Sketches, notes, plans, chaos.
Start & End dates – Track when this chapter of work began and when it was filled.
