Due to the custom and handmade nature of our products, we do not accept returns or exchanges unless the item arrives damaged. Please read descriptions carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.

7. Do the covers include planners or inserts?
No, our listings are for the leather covers only. Inserts and planners shown in photos are for display purposes only.

8. What does “veg tan leather” mean?
Vegetable-tanned leather is tanned using natural tannins from plants, making it eco-friendly and safe. It ages beautifully and is ideal for crafting luxury leather goods like planner covers.

9. Will the leather scratch or change color?
Yes, full-grain leather is a natural material that may show small marks and change in tone with use. These are not defects, but part of the charm and uniqueness of real leather.

10. How do I care for my leather cover?
Keep your cover away from moisture and direct sunlight. You can condition it occasionally with a natural leather balm to maintain its softness and color.

11. What is a Filoplanner notebook?

Filoplanner is a chunky notebook planning system created by Allie Ryaz. It uses thick notebooks with a large page count and customizable layouts. Our leather covers are designed to fit Filoplanner notebooks while allowing extra space for tabs, dashboards, and inserts.
