“To make a long story short. When Aaron Draplin made the very first Field Notes by hand, as a holiday gift for friends, they looked pretty much like these. When we started the company we had only one product, a 3-Pack of Kraft Memo Books with graph paper insides. And we expect, we’ll always have those as the heart of our product line.
Each Original Kraft memo book measures 3-1/2″ wide by 5-1/2″ tall and is bound by a rugged three-staple saddle-stitch process.
