Moleskine Size Guide

Whether you’re looking to take down key details at a moment’s notice, or hand-write a sprawling historical epic from start to finish, choosing a notebook that’s the right size is going to make your life much, much easier. Understanding how big or small a notebook is can be tricky to do online, though, so we’ve put together a handy guide to help you figure out which notebook is right for you.

Large – the All-Rounder

13cm wide x 21cm tall

Giving you a solid amount of room to write while fitting neatly into your bag, it’s easy to see why Large notebooks are our most popular option. Roughly the same size as a standard sheet of paper folded in half, that finely-balanced size makes a Large notebook a versatile choice, able to bounce from morning commutes to meetings with clients to afternoon reflections at home with equal ease. And when you’re ready to use it, there’s no compromise on space or comfort as you start to fill its pages.

Pocket – the On-The-Go Essential

9cm wide x 14cm tall

Pocket notebooks are a close second, designed with an emphasis on portability. Also known as A6 notebooks, a Pocket notebook is roughly half the size of an A5, so it takes up even less space in your bag (or, y’know… pocket). Keeping things compact does mean cutting down on page room, and the smaller pages mean it can be a little trickier to write in a pocket notebook. For quick notes, reminders and to-do lists, though, dropping a few centimetres of writing room to make it easier to keep your notebook on-hand is a no-brainer.

A4 - Wide Open Spaces

21cm wide x 29.7cm tall

Where the Pocket notebooks are all about portability over space, A4 notebooks take the opposite approach, giving you plenty of room to write, draw or do whatever else you can imagine. The same as a standard piece of paper and roughly twice as big as an A5 option, A4 notebooks are less practical for carrying around, but if you’re sitting down at your desk to write a new novel, an A4 notebook is the perfect creative companion, giving you all the space you need to let your imagination run wild. The A4 size most commonly appears in Moleskine's Art Notebooks, so you've got plenty of room to sweep your paintbrush around freely.

Extra Large – the Goldilocks Notebook

19cm wide x 25cm tall

Extra Large notebooks are a growing favourite among stationery aficionados, driven by Japanese stationery brands who favour this perfectly-balanced size. Offering a touch more space over the much-loved A5 without being as unwieldy as an A4 notebook might be, B5 is the Goldilocks of notebook sizes that might be just right for you.
