What is the Black/Silver Laserable Leatherette Portfolio with Lined Pad?
A working journal. Laserable polyurethane leatherette bonded to a contrasting core. It measures 9 1/2" x 12". This is the black colorway, one of 2 in the range.
Worth knowing before you order: leatherette solves the two problems real leather has as a promotional substrate: it is consistent from unit to unit, so a hundred pieces look like a hundred of the same piece, and it does not absorb moisture, stain, or fray at cut edges..
A journal is carried into meetings, which puts the logo in front of third parties rather than only the recipient. This is one of the highest-contrast decoration surfaces in the industry. The laser removes the top layer and reveals the core color underneath, so the logo appears as a crisp, permanent, two-tone mark with no ink and nothing to wear off. The two together are why this item re-orders.
This is the tier where an item stops being a giveaway and starts being a gift. Order it for people you have named rather than for a table, and the response rate changes accordingly. Concretely: $40.00 each at 1-11, $24.80 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 5 in x 5 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Best for
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Color
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
Debossing
A heated die presses the artwork into the material. A subtle, tactile, recessed impression in the surface color.
Best for
Leather and leatherette gifts where understatement is the point.
Color
Blind (no color) or foil-filled.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
Production schedule
| Artwork proof | 1 business day from receipt of usable art |
|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |
| Rush production | quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Ground transit | 1 to 5 business days depending on destination |
Common uses
Executive giftingBuilt for executive gifting. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Conference kitsA natural fit for conference kits, which is one of the settings this journal was specified for.
OnboardingBuilt for onboarding. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.
Employee milestonesAnniversaries, promotions and retirements: the moments where a personalized object does what an email cannot.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
1
Corporate Gifting & Client Appreciation
Client gifting has one job: to be kept. The recipient is rarely the decision maker you are trying to reach, which is the part most programs get wrong. Choose something that will sit in a shared space rather than a drawer, and the gift starts working on people who were never on your list. Volume takes it to $24.80, which widens the list without cheapening it.
2
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. The gesture is the product here. Spend the thought, not just the budget.
3
Technology, SaaS & Startups
Distributed teams have no office to carry the culture, so the objects have to. Shipping is the hidden cost and the hidden failure. An item that arrives damaged or takes three weeks to reach a remote hire does the opposite of what it was bought for, so pack weight and carrier reliability belong in the specification. An imprint area of 5 in x 5 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. At $40.00 before breaks, name the recipients rather than filling a table.
4
Onboarding & New Hire Kits
Day one sets the tone for everything after it. Split the kit by what it signals. One item should be genuinely useful on day one, one should be shareable outside work, and one should carry the name of the team rather than the company. That mix does more for belonging than a single expensive piece. This reads as a gift. Give it to people you chose, not people who walked past.
5
Trade Shows & Conferences
Booth traffic is not the metric: what leaves the hall and stays in use is. Run a two-tier giveaway: a low-cost item for everyone who stops, and a genuinely good piece reserved for qualified conversations. The second tier is what people remember when your follow-up email arrives a week later. Worth personalising individually at this price; the response rate justifies it.
6
Financial Services, Insurance & Legal
Professional services sell trust, and the gift has to look like the invoice. Compliance shapes the purchase more than taste does. Many institutions cap the value of a client gift and require it to be logged, which pushes this segment toward pieces that read as considered rather than expensive. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. $40.00 before breaks puts this above hand-out territory. Use it that way.
How does ordering and turnaround work?
| Minimum order | 1 piece |
|---|---|
| Setup | Free, from one piece to five hundred |
| Freight | Free ground freight on every order over $250; split shipping to individual addresses available |
| Rush service | Working to a date? Ask and we will confirm what is genuinely possible, priced up front |
| Proofing | Proof back to you next business day, and nothing runs until you approve it |
| Re-orders | Re-orders run from the file you already approved |
| Shipping | Free ground freight on every order over $250; split shipping to individual addresses available |
What do buyers ask about GFT612?
Can I order more later and have them match?
Re-orders reproduce rather than reinterpret. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. On natural materials the base itself can shift a little between batches, so tell us if an exact match matters. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows more than 1,000 of GFT612 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
What artwork do you need from me?
Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on GFT612 is 5 in x 5 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on GFT612 is 5 in x 5 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
How long does production take?
Door to door at standard speed: a day for the proof, 3 to 5 business days in production, then 1 to 5 business days in transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes. GFT612 runs in 2 colors and they combine for pricing, as long as the artwork does not change between them. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+.
Is there a setup charge?
There is no setup charge, ever. Art preparation, machine setup and the proof are part of the price on this page. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
What is the minimum order for GFT612?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on GFT612. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on GFT612 runs from $40.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $24.80 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

- Ground freight is free from 12 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 5 in by 5 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
- At 50 pieces this costs less than 34% of the 541 other priced items in Desk & Office. It sits at the dearer end of that range, which is usually the material rather than the margin.
- The table starts at 12 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 12.
