Moleskine believes that taking notes by hand is the best way to generate ideas, and that creativity blossoms with every stroke on the page.

This elegant, well-designed tool is the perfect space to put pen to paper. The Classic Notebook traces its origins to the legendary notebooks used by artists and writers over the centuries – every word and sketch you add to its pages make you part of the story. They are based on the notebooks used by Hemingway, Van Gogh and Picasso, with rounded corners, ivory notepaper, an expandable pocket, ribbon marker and an elastic closure.  Despite the name they are not actually made from mole’s skin or leather but from polypropylene, a material commonly used in book coverings.

The soft pliable cover offers a flexible version of the traditional hard cover notebooks.
