Subscriptions to our Quarterly Editions include four seasonal shipments with two packs of our limited-edition notebooks (and more).
These Pair Nicely
Tough Enough
It has been a while since we have implemented a new format for a Quarterly Release, and it has been a really long while since we first considered this one. We hope you’ll agree, it has been worth the wait.
Introducing our completely new Seasonal Release for the Summer of 2020, the “Heavy Duty” Edition. Each pack contains a pair of memo-sized Work Books, durable enough for your toughest assignments.
The covers are made of extra-beefy “Super Duty Chipboard” and have been screen-printed with thick, opaque ink, one in DDC Orange and one in Blue Sky Blue. The “flip” books are bound from the top with sturdy Double-O Wiring, to make it easy to take notes with one hand while holding the book with the other. Each book contains 80 pages, Ruled on the front with a Double Graph Grid on the back, so you’ll have space for making lists and for sketching out plans too.
Each 2-Pack includes a “Stay-Shut” Band of Rubber, sized to keep things extra-solid when your “Heavy Duty” book is packed away. The wire rings are also a good place to stash the subscriber-exclusive “Natural Finish 3-Inch Field Notes Hex Pencil.” We hope these bad-ass little companions can help you stay one step ahead of your to-do list.
To Every Season
Now’s the time to start a subscription. We’ll send you two “Heavy Duty” 2-Packs and the Hex Pencil right away, then the Fall, Winter, and Spring Editions as they’re released. Fall is deep into production and it's probably our most ambitious edition yet. Winter is top secret, and Spring will be our 50th Quarterly Release! That seems like an anniversary that deserves to be celebrated with something really special for subscribers.
