Field Notes Brand is a retail-focused maker of pocket notebooks, calendars, and related office accessories designed with a vintage, craft-inspired aesthetic. The products emphasize American-made production, using Midwestern-sourced paper and inks, and are distributed in compact formats that emphasize portability and everyday utility for organized note-taking and planning. The company serves customers who value well-crafted, timeless stationery and collectible editions, often collaborating with other design firms and partners to create limited editions and special packaging. Based in Chicago, Illinois, Field Notes Brand traces its origins to collaborations between the Draplin Design Company and Coudal Partners, and has published a history of distinctive product lines and partnerships. The business operates within the retail sector, positioning itself through product design, limited editions, and collaborations that extend the Field Notes aesthetic to items such as backpacks and leather goods in some partner-led projects. A recent development noted in industry coverage is a collaboration with Got Bag to produce a limited-edition Rolltop backpack.
