UNROOF, a leather goods brand operated by Borderless Japan (HQ: Fukuoka, CEO: Kazunari Taguchi), has created original leather book covers inspired by the Edo-period novels of Miyuki Miyabe to commemorate her 40th anniversary as a novelist in 2027. This collaboration marks the fourth installment of the UNROOF 'Novelist Collection.'

Inspired by Miyabe's numerous Edo novels, this limited-edition project fuses traditional 'Edo Sarasa' kimono fabric patterns with UNROOF's unique adjustable structure that adapts to the thickness of the book. It is designed to be a product that grows alongside the stories that continue to be read and loved.

[Sales Schedule] Pre-order period: June 1, 2026 (Mon) 10:00 to June 10, 2026 (Wed) 23:59 General sales start: June 11, 2026 (Mon) 00:00 *Pre-order bonus: An original bookmark supervised by Miyuki Miyabe.

Original Leather Bookmark: Uses the same Sarasa fabric as the book cover. The cat illustration is an original design modeled after Miyabe's own cat.

All products will be shipped sequentially starting June 15, 2026 (Mon).

Concept: UNROOF creates products that enrich daily life with the theme of 'things you want to use for a long time.' While digital consumption increases, we believe in the value of opening a book and immersing oneself in a story. This collection aims to be a 'tool to love the time spent reading' alongside Miyabe's world.
