Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design: Morning Light in a Pen

The wait is over! The Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design has finally arrived, and it’s every bit as dreamy as we imagined. Released on June 20, 2025, this limited edition ballpoint pen collection combines the famous FLOATUNE’s frictionless writing feel with soft, pastel gradient colors inspired by the gentle glow of morning light. It’s the kind of pen that not only writes beautifully but also makes your desk a happier, more inspiring place.

Whether you’re journaling, taking notes, or sketching out your ideas, this pen makes each stroke feel like your thoughts are floating smoothly onto the page. And for stationery lovers, the design is just as important as the performance, which is why this release is such a treat.

What Makes the Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design Special?

The original FLOATUNE pen, launched in 2024, quickly became a favorite for its frictionless ballpoint pen technology. Writing with it feels like gliding on air, making it easy to get your ideas out without hand strain. The Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design takes that same smooth performance and wraps it in soft, transparent gradient colors that capture the beauty of a new day.

Gorgeous Color Choices

The single pens (¥385 each) come in four dreamy shades:

Savon Purple – light and soothing, like lavender soap bubbles
Summer Orange – warm and bright, like the sunrise
Seaside Blue – cool and refreshing, like ocean waves
Mist Violet – mysterious and calming, like early morning fog

All versions use black ink, and you can choose between a 0.4mm fine tip pen for detailed writing or a 0.5mm ballpoint pen for a bolder line.

Exclusive 3-Pen Sets for Collectors

If one pen just isn’t enough, the Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design limited edition also comes in two collector’s sets (¥1,155 each, 0.5mm tip, black ink):

Fresh Airy Set – Savon Purple, Mist Violet, and the exclusive Glass Green
Bright Airy Set – Summer Orange, Seaside Blue, and the exclusive Sunshine Yellow

These sets are perfect for fans who want every color, plus the special shades you can’t get individually.

Design That Lifts Your Mood

The body design is where the Pentel FLOATUNE Airy Design really shines. Each pen features a gentle gradient that fades toward a clear click-top, giving it a light, airy look. The matching grip colors make the whole pen feel fresh and uplifting.

Even the packaging is thoughtful. It has a soft, rounded shape with a glossy finish, and the back can be cut and used as a bookmark, a clever little extra for stationery fans.

Why This Pen Solves a Real Problem

We’ve all had pens that feel scratchy, skip ink, or tire out our hands. The FLOATUNE’s smooth writing technology solves this by making writing effortless, even during long study sessions or note-taking marathons. And because it comes in beautiful pastel gradient stationery designs, it turns an everyday tool into something you actually enjoy picking up.

If you’re someone who journals daily, takes detailed notes, or just wants a pen that makes writing feel less like work and more like a treat, this collection is for you.
