The Day-Free combines a monthly calendar with a graph paper notebook. It was designed for users who have been ignoring dates as they use the pages and for those who are bothered by having blank daily pages scattered throughout their book. The Day-Free is available in A6 Original or A5 Cousin size, and will fit the same techo covers as their standard counterparts.

The full-year A6 Original techo has 464 total pages, while the A6 Day-Free has 240.This makes the Day-Free books basically half the thickness and weight of the standard full-year counterparts.

The Day-Free comes with a blue cover reminiscent of a lovely clear sky. The words Day-Free and Hobonichi Techo are printed in ivory.

Special stitch-binding allows the planner to lay completely flat without having to hold it down, and the page corners are rounded to minimize creasing and damage to the edges when carried around or stored in a bag.

Serial numbers on the inside back cover give each planner a unique identity and make your planner your very own special book.

Note: For the 2026 lineup, A6, A5, and 5-Year Covers will only be available as part of a set with their corresponding planner books. Covers will not be sold separately.
