I'm digging my "Traveler's note" by Midori Japan.

It's a somewhat modular binder (actually, it's just a piece of folded leather with some holes) in that you add paper, pockets, ribbons, etc...

The thing is made in Thailand,
helping the less fortunate there with employment and job.
Not that it was that that persuaded me, a somewhat heartless bastard, to get it. But the paper is made in Japan. Calender types, sqaured, plain, etc...
Here's a sketch of the qbn gentlemens on plain paper:http://img30.imageshack.us/i/trv…
And the backside for no particular reason:

Thanks for the responses so far - I hadn't appreciated that Muji was quite so popular. I'm asking as I'm interested in permanent, functional covers like in PeterH's links, so am wondering what would be the ideal brands to work around.
My only problem with Muji's offerings is that they tend to be quite thin, so not really suitable for a decent cover, which is where Rhodia really excel, with their thick, stubby wads of paper.
Any more for any more? :)
- rhodia sucks. the ink on the logo rubs off all over your hands. ruined several shirts i've worn to meetings.johndiggity
- Hmm... mine're all black?
All the more reason for a cover for the thing, eh! :)detritus

I love this question. Though Moleskin is making them now too, I have a ton of slim notebooks I got in Tokyo at Muji a few years ago:
They're not very thick; very minimal. I just love them. I buy notebooks all the time; I think subconsciously that I'm just going to start filling them writing writing, lyrics, or sketches. I'm really envious of people with the ability to fill notebooks with cook sketches. I just don't have the knack for it.
- Aye, I've bought a heckload of these over the years too! Thanks for the feedback.detritus

Another notebook I like but have never purchased are the Dot-Grid Books.
