STALOGY: How does it match up to Tomoe River Notebooks?

Tomoe River paper has been widely raved about for its thin, fountain-pen friendly paper in blogs like Phidonpens and Cultpens to name a few. As such, many compare our STALOGY notebook paper to this crowd favorite.

Stalogy uses smooth and thin paper, similar to Tomoe River paper with a subtle 5mm gray grid (the A5 has a smaller 4mm grid). Stalogy also comes in 4 sizes, but with two types of thickness: 365 Days and 1/2 Yearly.

STALOGY is a sleek, minimalist planner designed for "editors" — people who use their planners to list appointments and, also note-take, sketch and design.

While it has a friendlier price-point than Tomoe River, the STALOGY notebook paper is not significantly different. Thin and light-weight, STALOGY paper is resistant to bleed-through and feathering as well. It also boasts a flexible spine which allows the notebook to be opened 360°. This allows you to add in notes for scrapbooking easily.

A subtle gray grid pattern helps keep lists and drawings neatly aligned. The dates and hours printed in the top and left-hand margins are also subtle, letting you easily use it as a journal or idea book instead of a planner. The planner holds a full year's worth of pages, but thanks to its thin paper it is slim enough to easily slip into a bag or backpack.

Hobonichi Techo notebooks also use Tomoe River paper. Another notebook with a strong following, we have seen Hobonichi Techo users over at Facebook group STALOGY Lovers try out STALOGY notebooks as well, with favourable reviews.
