The stunning Kleid Diary 2022 combines modern design with a few thoughtful, nostalgic touches that make it feel special and important, with a gravitas appropriate to your most important notebook of the year. Perhaps the feature that stands out most is the gilded edges—for this Kleid Diary in Olive, they are finished with sparkling gold foil. (The Kleid Diary in Grey features silver foil instead.) The soft paper cover and traditional stitched binding will be familiar to users of Kleid notebooks, but a clear vinyl cover has been added to the diary version to keep it looking great all year.

Inside Kleid Diary, you'll find enough structure to plan your year, but not so much that it prevents you from organizing it your own way. This planner starts with a compact year-at-a-glance view, followed by two-page monthly calendars for December 2021 through March 2023. The bulk of this 128 pp. planner is simply Kleid's outstanding 2 mm gridded paper, so you can decide to write to-do lists, weekly schedules, or draft correspondence. The format is completely flexible. Bullet journal enthusiasts will especially like the freedom to design their own pages.

The paper itself is a premium, smooth writing stock called OK Fools, made in Japan and on par with any of the best-loved Japanese writing papers. There is enough texture to write with a pencil and so that you can feel your pen's position on the page, but a fountain pen will move smoothly across the surface and the ink will not bleed. The soft 2 mm gridlines are not distracting, but they keep your writing straight and can be emphasized with ink for diagrams and sectioned pages.

Two bookmark ribbons are bound into Kleid Diary, so you can keep your place in the calendar section and the gridded section simultaneously.

A5 size (5.8" x 8.3"). Made in Japan.
