A leather cover for your Field Notes. With or without a pen loop.

The Navigator is a slim leather cover sized for Field Notes notebooks (3.5" × 5.5"). The notebook slides in, the cover protects it. Optional pen loop on the side if you carry a pen. No extra pockets, no elastic bands, no bulk. Just your notebook in leather.

The basics

  • Fits: Field Notes 3.5" × 5.5" (and similar sized notebooks)
  • Optional pen loop
  • Full-grain leather, hand-stitched, hand-burnished edges
  • Made by hand in my Kyiv workshop, one at a time

The leather (and why it’s named on the label)

  • Badalassi Carlo (Tabacco) — Italian vegetable-tanned full-grain. Firm, ages slow, builds a deep patina.
  • Crazy Horse (Rusty) — waxed pull-up. Scratches rub out with your thumb, color shifts with carry.
  • Ponte (Natural) — lighter natural color, vegetable-tanned, patinas gradually.
  • Koala (Black, Cigar) — smooth, even, minimal marking. Stays consistent.

All full-grain — the top layer of the hide, not corrected or bonded scraps.

Who it’s not for

If you want to carry a passport alongside your Field Notes, the Quartermaster v4 does both in one piece.

FAQ

Does it fit other notebook brands?
It’s sized for Field Notes (3.5" × 5.5"). Other notebooks at those dimensions will fit — most pocket notebooks are close.

Do I need the pen loop?
Only if you carry a pen. Without it the cover is slightly slimmer. Either version holds the notebook the same way.

Does the leather scratch?
Crazy Horse (Rusty) marks with use — most scratches rub out with your thumb. Badalassi Carlo (Tabacco), Ponte (Natural), and Koala (Black, Cigar) are smoother and mark less.

How do I care for it?
Keep it out of the wash. A small amount of leather conditioner once or twice a year. It’ll look better with age.

Who makes it and where?
I do, by hand, in my workshop in Kyiv, Ukraine. Every order ships with a handwritten note. We’ve shipped 7,000+ orders and earned 600+ five-star reviews.

Hey, I’m Vitalii — the maker behind Pirate Goods. I’ve been hand-stitching every wallet, sheath, and organizer in my Kyiv workshop since 2020. If anything’s ever off with your order, message me directly — I answer every email myself.

Built to last. Backed by me personally.

If the stitching ever fails or the leather splits under normal use, I’ll repair or replace it. No forms, no fine print — just send me a photo and I’ll make it right.
