Van der Spek 'Touch Me' - Restock

You will be pleased to read that Van der Spek have restocked their 'Touch Me' range of organisers and accessories.

For those of you that have been patiently waiting for this day to arrive, here is a direct link! The new stock will be on line from 14:00 CEST

If you are wondering what is the Van der Spek 'Touch Me' range, then please read on!

The 'Touch Me' range from Van der Spek is their 'ready to ship' range of organisers, accessories and there is also their 'Nomad' Travellers Notebook covers as well.

They are all made from good quality leather sourced from a French tannery. 

The current range of restocked colours are shown in the photograph below. 

left to right: Noir (Black), Tabac (light brown), Burgundy, Noir, Turquoise, Lilac, Tabac.

The above photo shows the four sizes from Pocket (Junior), Senior (A6), Standard (Personal), Manager A5.

The internal layout of the organisers varies slightly with size, but in my opinion, they have most things that people need for an organiser they will use on a daily basis.

Starting with the Manager A5 shown below in Burgundy. It features the full width back pocket, so it can take full size A4 sheets.

On the left hand side you will find:
  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • 1 full height expanding zip pocket 
  • 2 full height slip pockets 
  • 1 bottom pocket 
  • 1 middle pocket 
  • Secretarial flap. 
On the right hand side:
  • 6 horizontal credit-card pockets 
  • 1 bottom pocket 
  • 1 full height slip pocket 
  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • Secretarial flap.
The Manager A5 is available with 35 mm Krause rings.

The Standard size, which is the same as Filofax Personal size, shown below in Tabac. It too has the full width back pocket.

On the left hand side: 
  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • 1 full height expanding zip pocket 
  • 1 full length high pocket 
  • 1 bottom pocket | secretarial flap. 
On the right hand side:
  • 6 horizontal credit card pockets 
  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • Secretarial flap.
The Standard can be fitted with either 25mm or 30mm Krause rings.

The Senior (A6) size shown below in Turquoise, also has the full width back pocket,

  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • Secretarial flap.
The Senior can be specified with either 20mm or 25mm Krause rings.

Finally the Junior Touch Me, which is the same as Filofax Pocket size, shown below in Lilac, has the full width back pocket.

On the left hand side:
  • 1 full height expanding zip pocket 
  • 1 full length high pocket 
  • 1 bottom pocket 
  • Secretarial flap. 
On the right hand side: 
  • 3 horizontal credit card pockets 
  • 1 bottom pocket 
  • Elasticated leather pen loop 
  • Secretarial flap.
The Junior comes with 20mm Krause rings.

Junior (Pocket) size.

As mentioned above the restocked colours will be available on-line at 14:00 CEST 2:00 PM Central European Summer Time, on Monday 3rd September 2018.  

Petra Van der Spek has also told me that they have a limited stock of the previous Touch Me colours in some, but not all sizes of 'Touch Me' models still available in 'Gris Blue, Menthe, French Blue' as shown in the photograph below. Check on-line for details.

L-R: Gris Blue, Menthe, French Blue
