Learn about different PLOTTER Sizes and Refill Types
At our pop-up at the San Francisco Stationery Fest, we will bring samples and cuts of leather to let you experience the different feel and textures of leather in our lineup. We will also be offering a limited quantity of our standard Leather Binders line up in Shrink Leather, Bridle Leather, and Pueblo Leather for purchase, only in A5 Size, Bible Size, and Mini 5 Size. While we are not able to bring the entire lineup of PLOTTER USA items to the event, we welcome fans and new users to browse our collection of samples to see how leather types and colors can age and gain patina over time. You are also welcome to pick up each leather binder and test the size and fit to your liking.
Event limited items
At the PLOTTER pop-up, we will be bringing a collection of event-limited items that you can typically only purchase through physical events. This includes event-only leather binders, unique refills, and special collaboration accessories. Please note that quantities are limited and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis, and we do not accept reservations online.
Flagship Limited – Predator Amber Leather
To celebrate the milestone of PLOTTER TOKYO Flagship store opening in September 2025, PLOTTER unveiled its special creation in collaboration with Horween Leather Company. Horween’s Predator line features leather with rustic and wild characteristics. The leather is packed with everything that leather lovers can’t get enough of: Aging, oil, a subtle pull-up, and more. Horween named this leather “Predator” as a symbol of “strength,” “ruggedness,” and “durability.” The Predator leather by Horween is a favorite among shoemakers for its rich blend of waxes and aging characteristics.
PLOTTER worked with Horween to create an exclusive hue – Predator Amber. This leather exhibits a hue that’s not quite orange or brown but still evokes the bright energy and character of leather. The color “Amber” is inspired by fossilized tree resins, hardened over years of change but still preserving its iconic glow. Just like its namesake, this leather exhibits a slight pull-up to show a yellowish orange tone and will develop a rich patina over time. The “Amber” color is further emphasized with the subtle pairing of a rose gold backplate.
Predator Amber 6-Ring Leather Binder will be available in A5 Size and Bible Size at San Francisco Stationery Fest. We invite you to feel the unique texture and pull-up effect of this leather in person.
As a rare opportunity, we will also be bringing a small selection of other PLOTTER TOKYO exclusives that could only be purchased at our flagship store in Japan. This includes a limited quantity of PLOTTER TOKYO Kurozan leather binder series, 1mm Grid Refill Memo Pads, and Paper Dividers featuring Harajuku designs. Please visit our pop-up booth to see this special collection.
9th Anniversary Edition – Pueblo Limited BOX
In 2025, PLOTTER celebrates its 9th anniversary and opens its first flagship shop in Tokyo. To mark this milestone year, PLOTTER released the Pueblo Limited BOX, featuring the new Red Brown color in the popular Pueblo leather.
“Pueblo” is a signature leather from the renowned Badalassi Carlo tannery in Tuscany, Italy, and part of PLOTTER’s iconic leather binder line-up. We chose to highlight this leather series because it embodies the power of transformation. Its distinctive finish, achieved by brushing the surface fibers, gives it a matte, rugged texture when new. Over time, however, the raised fibers polish down, absorbing the natural oils from the hand and the passage of time, revealing a deep, lustrous glow and rich tonal depth. Within just a few months, the transformation is astonishing; after years of use, the leather matures into something entirely different, each piece of PLOTTER leather binder becoming uniquely alive.
Each Pueblo leather binder in Red Brown is accented by the matte-gold backplate. The exclusive leather is also highlighted with the accompanying accessory refills: a matching Pen Holder with Lifter and Ring Supporter using the same leather.
The Pueblo Limited BOX is offered in all five sizes of PLOTTER leather lineup: A5 Size, Bible Size, Narrow Size, Mini Size, and Mini 5 Size. You can choose your favorite form factor to utilize in your creative life. Each set comes in a special edition gray box, perfect for holding small accessories or giving as a gift.
US Exclusive – Shiranami Leather
PLOTTER first introduced “Shiranami Leather” with the Japan Blue Project in August 2023 – its first US Exclusive project that includes a line-up of PLOTTER 6-Ring Leather Binders in A5, Bible, and Mini Size, as well as its complementary special Refill Memo Pad made with high-quality blue color paper in “Quadrant Graph”.
“Shiranami” translates to “white-crested waves” – the foamy white edges of turbulent waves at sea that create a stunning and dramatic view. The creation of this leather employs the unique technique of “indigo dye”, developed by a heritage tannery in Himeji to produce a leather with a distinctive expression. The base leather is dyed with natural indigo, then treated with a white waxy surface that represents the foamy waves of its namesake.
Based on the unique characteristics of leather – its thickness and its grain, the degree of dye penetration differs and may result in darker or lighter hues of blue. PLOTTER lovers will surely enjoy the individuality of Shiranami leather and the appeal of indigo dye.
In addition to the three basic sizes: A5 Size, Bible Size, and Mini Size, PLOTTER USA’s most recent introduction to this series is the special Mini 5 Square Size. The square dimension is a new size that evokes more creativity, while still maintaining versatility for writing on the go. All four sizes will be available at the San Francisco Stationery Fest.
Mini 5 Square accessory refills, which include a Fastener Case, Lifter with Penholder, and Band with Lifter and Mini 5 Square Size Refills in Blue Paper 2mm Grid, Plain, and 2mm Grid layouts will also be available for purchase at the event.

PLOTTER x CARAN D’ACHE 849 Ballpoint Pen
In December 2024, PLOTTER Japan held a joint pop-up store event in Tokyo with CARAN D’ACHE, a long-established Swiss brand of writing instruments whose brand concept is synchronized with PLOTTER. In respect of their history, story, design, and functionality, PLOTTER has developed two new colors of the iconic “849 Ballpoint Pen” by CARAN D’ACHE in a special-order combination, reminiscent of PLOTTER’s original backplate color in rose gold, which will be available in limited quantities.
