Voyager Journal

this thing is a work of art. its so nice to hold and use. and just love the canvas. future iterations id love to see pen loops on the inside left panel just to hold a few pens/pencils and more pockets on the inside right panel.

I made a few homemade travel notebook inserts that fit it beautifully. absolutely amazed at the material and work put into this.

Wait—we didn’t compare the Voyager to the TN? If you own both, you're already rolling your eyes. You know exactly where this is going. The Voyager is the bold overachiever, the rugged multitasker, the caffeinated Swiss Army knife of travel folios. It's trying to do it all: hold your notes, your stickers, your trinkets, your existential dread—whatever you need on the go.

Now, about the pockets. Oh, the pockets. Six of them. Five inside, one chilling on the back like a rebellious teen refusing to be left out. And no, these aren’t "shove your entire kitchen drawer in here" pockets—that’s what the Venture Pouch is for, obviously. These are strategic, calculated, Goldilocks-level pockets. Just right.

As someone who owns what is basically the entire Lochby catalogue—Pocket, Mini, Field, Venture, Tool Roll, Quattro—my first thought was, “Where does this one even fit in?” I mean, I already Frankensteined my TN into some kind of hybrid planner-journal-wallet-therapy session. But then I had a thought... what if the Voyager is the all-in-one I didn’t know I was waiting for? Could it dethrone the TN?

Only one way to find out. Click. Buy. Wait. Unbox.

First impressions? The Bumblebee colorway with that honeycomb interior is sweet—but not in a saccharine way. It looks like it could survive a fall off a cliff, or at least a very angry commuter train. It’s sturdy, unapologetically tough, and definitely not fitting in your back pocket unless your jeans were tailored by a…

This has finally ticked all the boxes for me!

Ruggedness, storage and versatility pretty much sums up this journal. It holds all my inserts comfortably without the need for rubber bands like a TN cover. Don't get me wrong TNs have a place but if your looking to maximize and only bring 1 journal everywhere this is it! I use mine for planning, todos/ notes, journaling and sketching all in one neat package!

Nothing beats the ruggedness and quality of Lochby’s Voyager Journal. For years I used their A5 Journal but decided to streamline down to the traveler size. Highly recommended! Lochby also has the best notebooks because the pages lie down flat when open. No others that I know of lie down flat when it’s sitting on my desk. However, for me, what this Voyager size Lochby system is lacking are voyager size planner notebooks that lie down flat. Until Lochby makes them available I’ll continue using my other brand planner. Gotta have my planner with me daily.
