Metamorphosis: [TSLxBK] Notebook Cover // New vs. 1 year old

It's always so intriguing to see how natural nude leather wears in over time. I have been using [TSLxBK] JIBUN Techo Cover A5 Slim in all leather (nude) for this past year. I was delightfully surprised to see the difference between the new cover vs. my aged worn-in cover side by side when we received the new inventory from The Superior Labor a few weeks ago so I thought I would share them with you through photographs!
 
We have a few artifacts made by TSL which uses this "TSL special" leather (including our favorite Pen Holder Clip). Their leather feels incredible in hands so naturally, I tend to pick it up pretty often when a notebook is wrapped in this cover. You can definitely see a lot of my personal imprints from natural usages like the darkened area where notebook cover folds in half, as well as some extra customization including wabi-sabi, embossed stamp and stenciled letter "w" on the back cover. 
 
I hope you enjoy witnessing how the leather ages and wears in if you have one of their natural nude leather artifacts.
