To say that Field Notes are influential in EDC would be the stationery understatement of the decade; they’ve pretty much set the standard for the utility and ubiquitousness of a pocket notebook as something you carry every day. And while many of them share similar staple characteristics like the pocketable 3.5″ x 5.5″ size, 48 pages of acid-free paper that’s a joy to write on, and lay-flat binding, it’s the covers that set each notebook apart from each other.
Over the years, Field Notes have released colors, collaborations, special editions, monthly subscriptions, and every conceivable creative concept for their covers. Still, for EDC specifically, nothing beats the simple black cover espoused by the Pitch Black edition pictured above. Stealthy, bold, and goes with most pens and tools. It doesn’t get much better than this. Pick up a pack of three in your choice of dot grid or ruled at the link below.
