AN HONEST NOTEBOOK

To make a long story short. When Aaron Draplin made the very first Field Notes by hand, as a holiday gift for friends, they looked pretty much like these notebooks. When they started the company they had only one product, a 3-Pack of Kraft Memo Books with graph paper inside. Field Notes believe they will always have them as the heart of their product line.

Field Notes original 48-page notebooks are available in three variations – graph, ruled, or plain paper – or as a mixed 3-pack that includes one of each paper type. Each Original Kraft memo book measures 3-1/2" wide by 5-1/2" tall (89mm x 140mm) and is bound by a rugged three-staple saddle-stitch process.
