About this item
- POCKET NOTEBOOK, PERFECTED - We introduced our “Pitch Black” Field Notes Memo Book in 2013, and it quickly became one of our most popular memo books. At 3.5"x5.5," this 3 pack of journals is perfectly sized to fit in the pocket of your shirt, pants, or purse. As always, the inside covers feature our usual Specifications and Practical Applications.
- DOT GRAPH OR RULED JOURNAL - This 48-page journal notebook is designed with best-in-class versatility. Choose between dot-graph or ruled paper, printed using soy-based ink, for daily bullet journaling, tracking midnight ramblings, or scribbling down poems when inspiration strikes.
- ACID-FREE, BRIGHT WHITE - Each field journal features responsibly manufactured 60 lb (90 GSM) Finch Opaque body paper, which is a pleasure to write on, as it's smoother and more substantial than the typical notepad or composition notebooks. The acid-free pages maintain a bright white color to preserve sketches, observation logs, or to-do lists.
- RUGGED & DURABLE COVERS - Stash your Field Notes notebook in your pocket, car, or backpack for everyday carry. The duplex printed cover, made from 118 lb (320 GSM) kraft cardstock from French Paper Co. in Michigan, handles rough treatment without tearing or curling. It’s bound together by saddle stitch and three glossy black staples that support a flat lay to make quick entries easy and efficient.
- PROUDLY PRINTED & MANUFACTURED IN THE USA - We take great pride in our complete and transparent origin stories. Each of our thin notebooks and journals is bestowed with evidence of our artisan-first processes, like locally printed pages from suppliers in the midwest and precisely rounded corners stamped by a machine noted inside the back cover.

FIELD NOTES BRAND
Field Notes is a collection of smartly-designed, vintage-styled pocket notebooks. Proudly made in the U.S.A.

Inspired by the vanishing sub-genre of agricultural memo books, ornate pocket ledgers, and the simple, unassuming beauty of a well-crafted list, the Draplin Design Company of Portland and Coudal Partners, a Chicago creative firm, created Field Notes, a collection of vintage-styled pocket notebooks.

It's been super convenient and my productivity has been through the roof. I keep one in my office and one in the garage for woodworking projects and yard chores. These little notebooks are awesome! I'll continue purchasing them.
The Field notes is a bit smaller, and only comes in the this, or the memo (a bit over ~3x5") size, while the Cahier comes in memo, medium (slightly larger than the Field Notes) and an XXL. So if you extra size for sketching, go for Moleskine or other art oriented book. The Field Notes Notebook size does not lose a noteworthy (ha) amount of space from the Cahier XL. The Field Notes of course comes in dot graph. This is probably the most notable improvement over the Moleskine, which does offer a square grid, but but not a dot graph. I much prefer dot to full square, but for those who like plain, again Moleskine has that option where Field Notes is more selective with options. I also prefer the paper in the Pitch Black Notebook; it is slightly thicker, smoother, and whiter for clear sketching, which I prefer in a sketchbook especially if you wish to use color. Oh, and don't forget Field Notes are made in the USA and just feel more fun and personal to use with their front and rear covers packed with fun or useful information including a 17cm/07in. ruler, places to write your own pertinent contact, location and start/end date. You do miss out on the rear cover pocket featured on the Moleskine Cahiers. I don't miss the the pocket though, it's implementation wasn't that great. Being an extra piece glued to the back, it was unable to hold an entire (unfolded) torn out sheet from the notebook itself.
TLDR; I prefer the Field Notes Pitch Black Dot-Graph!
Field Notes Pitch Black Notebook.
>Dot rule is awesome! I prefer it to plain or square grid.
>Thicker, smoother, whiter paper.

>Slightly larger, also available in XXL.
>Rear pocket is nice, if too small.
If I'm not using a custom made notebook, they're my go-to.
Notably, they have my favorite size of dot grid. It's slightly smaller than many others I've seen at 4.7mm vs a common 5mm. I don't have large handwriting, so I prefer this size.

I also use it in the photographic darkroom for printing notes.
Fits right in my back pocket with the pen on the page I'm using. Wears in nice too- when it gets a bit damaged it looks nice and used instead of tatty
