Staple Day 21 - We're taking Fridays off between Memorial Day and Labor Day. A note to other bosses: The secret is that we don't work 25% harder or longer Monday through Thursday to make 4-day weeks successful. We just screw around 25% less.

Field Notes / Field Notes Brand Books

Twenty Years of Kraft

The anniversary date of “Field Notes” varies a bit, depending on who you ask. Aaron Draplin first used the name (typeset, of course, in all-caps Futura Bold) on a customized one-off red hardcover notebook in 2002. Our “official line” sets the birth of the company in mid-2007, when Coudal Partners and Aaron first printed a batch of 3-Packs for the “Swap Meat,” followed shortly by the establishment of “Field Notes Brand” as an actual thing. – Jan. 14th, 2025
