Description
Dark brown that goes lighter before it goes darker
Freedom Dark Brown is a pull-up hide from Conceria Walpier, oiled and deep. It behaves the opposite way round to what people expect from a dark leather: pressure makes it paler, not darker.
Fold it and a tan streak appears along the bend, because the oils carrying the colour move aside. Let it sit and the streak fills back in, most of the way. What builds up over a year is a dark ground with a network of lighter lines through it — the folds, the corners, the place the cover meets the edge of your desk every day.
Because the base colour is dark, the contrast here is stronger than on the ginger version, and it reads as texture rather than damage. The oiled surface also hides the ordinary scuffs a bag inflicts, so the marks that show are the ones you made on purpose.
Made to order
- Fits A5 or A6 notebooks — choose the size that matches the book you already use
- Size: A6 — 158 mm tall, 250 mm wide open, about 120 mm closed; A5 — 220 mm tall, 350 mm wide open, about 170 mm closed
- Made in Vilnius, ships in 5–7 working days
- Free foil personalisation
- A choice of elastic colours, with one spare included
The standard cover uses a modular elastic system and can carry two or three thin notebooks, depending on their thickness. If you need another layout, we can add extra holes and extra elastics before cutting.
The SLOWLINES logo is stamped in the finish you choose for your text: gold foil with gold, silver with silver, blind debossing with no foil on either. We do not mix the two.
A clean, minimal cover designed for daily writing
The construction stays simple on purpose: clean lines, carefully finished edges and enough structure to protect your notebooks without making the cover feel bulky.
Sizes & care

These are notebook dimensions, not the outside dimensions of the leather cover.
Check the binding
Our elastic system is designed for softcover notebooks that can bend at the spine. A rigid hardcover is not a suitable fit.
Cover measurements
A5 standard: 220 mm tall × 350 mm wide open; about 170 mm closed.
A5 trifold: 220 mm tall × 450 mm wide open; about 170 mm closed.
A6 standard: 158 mm tall × 250 mm wide open; about 120 mm closed.
A6 trifold: 158 mm tall × 320 mm wide open; about 120 mm closed.
The standard cover is a simple fold. A trifold adds a panel around the outside of the stack. Both can hold a setup with several thin inserts; thickness matters as well as the number of notebooks.
A different notebook?
Measure your closed notebook’s width, height and thickness in millimetres. Tell us how many inserts you want to carry.
Email hello@slow-lines.com before ordering if you are unsure.
Natural leather changes with use
It may darken, soften, gain shine and develop small marks over time – this is part of its character.
To care for your cover, wipe it gently with a dry soft cloth. Avoid soaking, alcohol-based cleaners, direct heat and prolonged sunlight. Let the leather age naturally, and use leather balm only when the surface feels dry.
Delivery & returns
Making your cover
Made to order · dispatch in 5–7 working days
Ready to Ship · dispatch in 1–2 working days
Dispatch is when your parcel leaves us. Delivery time comes after that.
Tracked delivery from Lithuania
All orders leave Lithuania with tracking. We email the tracking number after dispatch.
Tracked shipping. Shipping costs are calculated at checkout.
Lithuania: 1–3 working days.
Other EU countries: 5–10 working days.
United Kingdom: 7–14 working days.
Other supported destinations: 10–21 working days.
These are delivery estimates, not guaranteed arrival dates. Holidays, customs and local postal services can add time.
If your country is available at checkout, we can ship there. If it is not listed, contact us before ordering.
Customs and import charges
No customs duties apply to shipments within the EU. Outside the EU, your destination may charge duties, taxes or handling fees; these are the customer’s responsibility unless stated otherwise at checkout.
30 days after delivery
Standard covers without personalisation can be returned. That includes both made-to-order and Ready to Ship covers.
For our voluntary policy after the statutory withdrawal period, keep the cover unused, in its original condition and packaging, with proof of purchase.
Personalisation and custom sizes
Covers with a personal inscription, a non-standard size or an individually agreed construction cannot be returned simply because you change your mind. Choosing a standard size, leather, colour or elastic does not make a cover non-returnable.
Your statutory rights, including applicable EU withdrawal rights and rights if an item is faulty or not as ordered, remain unaffected. Reasonable inspection does not remove your statutory withdrawal right.
How to request a return
Open your order in your customer account to request a return. You can also email hello@slow-lines.com with your order number and item; a reason is optional for a change of mind.
We will provide the return details. Contacting us helps arrange the return; a statutory withdrawal does not depend on our approval.
Return postage is your responsibility for a change of mind. Contact us first if the item is faulty or we sent the wrong item.
