Are We There Yet?

Summer. Cars. The “License Plate Game.” Holiday Inn Swimming Pools. Pecan Logs. FIELD NOTES. It’s time to start planning your summer road trip and we can help make it great with our new ROAD TRIP KIT.

Above, we map a 1700-mile drive from the Field Notes Midwest HQ to the unbelievably beautiful Sedona, Arizona. Our route passes through Illinois, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico and Arizona–six mighty fine states. Wouldn’t it be great to document the trip, state-by state, in a series of Field Notes “County Fair” notebooks? Here’s your chance! Even if you’re not hitting the road, you’ll find plenty of great uses for notebooks featuring your favorite six states.

Each ROAD TRIP KIT includes an 80-page Field Notes Steno notebook for pre-trip planning, ANY SIX individual county Fair State editions (you’ll get an email asking you to select six states after you place your order), six Field Notes Brand #2 Woodgrain pencils, and other goodies.

Grab the atlas from under your passenger seat, fill up the tank, and order today! The Field Notes Brand ROAD TRIP KIT is just $26.95 and it’s shipping right now.

Back to School with Neon Ice Pops Pack

Bryan Bedell — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 14:44:49 +0000

Our new Neon Ice Pop Pack contains our Neon Ice Pop 3-Pack with three matching pencils (orange, yellow and green). The Field Notes feature 48 “summer sky” blue 3/16″ graph interior pages, and it’s all held together by our famous FN-09 “Band of Rubber.” They look great under a blacklight (as pictured), but you pretty much need to squint to look at them in regular light, too. More details and order info here.

If you’re on our email list, you ordered your Neon Ice Pops a few days ago, and they’re already on its way. Join our email list up in the top left-hand corner of the site!

The Four the Merrier

If you’re a fan of conjoined food or just get excited about clerical errors, here’s the only known example of FOUR FIELD NOTES in a Ruled Paper 3-Pack. We should probably hang onto it, in case we ever came across a 2-Pack, but it deserves to go out into the wild with its non-mutant bretheren.

Update: We have a winner! Cheers, Jacob!

Spanning the Globe

Last Wednesday we offered a free FIELD NOTES Mixed 3-Pack to anyone ordering anything from Coudal.com. Response was positive, to say the very least, and we had a busy few days filling all the orders. A few cheapskates ordered six pencils for $3.49 to get their free 3-Pack, but hey, the deal said “anything,” and we stood by it. Ain’t nothing wrong with taking advantage of a good deal.

Here at FN HQ, we all buckled down and packed orders (in my case, forgetting the free 3-Pack half the time and having to re-pack orders). All the bulging kraft-paper envelopes were traveling to points all over the globe by Friday morning, and we’ve started to see the usual (and appreciated!) blog postings, emails, flickr photos, and such that accompany any FIELD NOTES mailing blitz. As just one example, Tom Zeigler of NYC sent the photo above of our “FN-09 General Purpose Band of Rubber” TOTALLY DOMINATING his rubber band ball.

If you missed out on this surprise offer (it was a surprise even to us until Wednesday morning), you’ll certainly want to sign up for our mailing list, up there in the top left corner of the page. If an occasional email is too much to bear, try our RSS feed (but only the mailing list gets new COLORS presale announcements!).

Mailing-list members got first crack at preordering limited edition “Butcher Orange” FIELD NOTES yesterday afternoon. They sold out in 27 hours. (The response was so positive, it temporarily seized our shopping cart software, sorry about that!) If that’s not a good reason to join our mailing list (sign up to the left), I don’t know what is.
