So this guy is staying at a hotel and the maid threw away his Field Notes memo book while tidying up his room. Aw man, I’d be beside myself. He kept his cool, scanned the room and decided to fight back.

He took matters into his own hands and went and retrieved them. You can see the scene illustrated right here.

Field Notes are good for recording precious memories like this one, as well as harrowing accounts of bravery, daring escapes, good nights out, bad nights out, gambling earnings, lists, short stories, treasure maps, mathematic equations and the occasional dumpster rescue that you just won’t yourself forget. This is why we say, “I’m not writing it down to remember it later. I’m writing it down to remember it now.”

Good work, Casual Brooks.

Here’s the first of what we’d hope many “thought-provoking and inspiring” Public Service Announcements from Field Notes. From time to time we’ll be checking in to remind our customers about what makes us tick, from our core. Today we’re reminding everyone to “keep things simple.” Our world is made up of paper and staples, and more often than not, that’s all we need to keep everything above water and sailing along.

Thank you for believing in Field Notes. Stay tuned for “exciting developments in simple materials.”
