Congratulations on the goal!!!!! I should watch that documentary! I too would keep that Field Notes bag 😂 I like that Guest Pass idea! I would LOVE to go to a Field Notes HQ some day! Man, I love Field Notes!!!!!
Great video! I visit Chicago 2x/year to visit family (born & raised there) and I’ve never visited the FN HQ. I’ll have to add it to my list of places to visit. TFS! 🤗
Very cool field trip! So fun to have special book for visiting! Seeing the press sheets took me back to when I worked in the print industry. The ink smells and sounds of the presses, folders, collators and stitchers all came flooding back.
Limited edition from years ago. They've only got a small handful of them left. I should have sprung for more of the rare ones, but that gives me a good excuse to go back😎
Really nice video. You were lucky to get there and meet the owner…. And those to guest pass notebook are really cool too !!! Hope to get there one day, even if a have a huge collection of Field Notes Notebooks 😂
When you said, “Mattie, you ready?” I don’t think she understood that you were basically saying “…. Are you ready to catch me when I pass out from excitement or hyperventalate” 😂
Nice video ! I’m in Canada so we don’t have a local FN store . I have 15 FNs - mostly National Parks . I don’t really favor FNs over the Faux FNs - but I will def use my Hawaii and Joshua Park last ! I wonder if that’s a thing to people that actually use their FNs - is there an order - lol !
Ironic that the real field notes is Rite In The Rain. lol Does Field Notes have any paper that can be used in the woods during a pouring rain? A pen that can write upside down, in the rain, in greasy conditions? i do respect the left-handed notebook. I was hoping this would be a look inside their factory.
They actually have the expedition set that has waterproof and tear proof paper and covers. And they have a pen similar to that, I believe, as well! Maybe one day I'll get a look inside the factory👀
Seemed like a great time! Glad one of the owners hung around and had a chat with you, now all you need is to meet Aaron Draplin!
Yes!!! I need to meet all of them! Jim was great! We had a good long chat about all things Field Notes!
Awesome video man. Field Notes should be honored to have met you.
Thank you😎 It was an honor to be there. I'm grateful to have gotten the experience!

I'm honestly amazed that you managed to get the chance to go there
It was awesome!!! I'd love to go back one day soon!
So freaking envious!! Great video. And thanks for taking us to Field Notes, Garrett!
Glad you liked it! You're very welcome!
What a wonderful place. There`s no Field notes pocket book here`s in Brazil. It could be so cool if this notebook could sell in here.
Can you not even get them online?
@@GareTheBear there`s no site who deliver in Brazil.
Hey that's great! what a fun trip.
It sure was a blast! Thanks for watching, man!🙏
That’s really cool man
Thanks!!
The press sheet is so cool!!!
Even more beautiful in person. I need to get a frame for it
Great video! I visit Chicago 2x/year to visit family (born & raised there) and I’ve never visited the FN HQ. I’ll have to add it to my list of places to visit. TFS! 🤗
That's awesome! I love Chicago! FN is definitely worth adding to the list without a doubt!
I can just sense your excitement - this is EXTREMELY COOL!!! And to meet the owner guy - thats a special treaat for you:)
Haha it was VERY exciting for sure!! It was overall such a great experience!

So exciting! Thanks for sharing your adventure.
I'm glad I was able to document it. Thank you for watching!!
9:27 tell me more about the moon one 🤔
Limited edition from years ago. They've only got a small handful of them left. I should have sprung for more of the rare ones, but that gives me a good excuse to go back😎
@GareTheBear what are the odds you get me the moon? 👀
I legit thought about it last time👀 Maybe if they have it still next time we go🔥
Really nice video. You were lucky to get there and meet the owner…. And those to guest pass notebook are really cool too !!! Hope to get there one day, even if a have a huge collection of Field Notes Notebooks 😂
Glad you liked it! It was such a good opportunity to meet Jim. I'm hoping to go back again and maybe add even more to the collection🤣
I love this video! Thank you for sharing. I hope to go there one day, too!
Thanks for watching! It's definitely worth the trip if you get the opportunity!
I want to go! Fascinating.
It was great! If ever you get the opportunity, I recommend it!
keep up the good work
Thanks! I appreciate that!🤝
That seems so perfect that you live so close to HQ
MIGHTY CONVENIENT
An " all bow face Mecca" moment
🤣🤣🤣
Dang the the covers are sick
and left handed version is dope.
I agree! I would love to give the left handed ones a try🤣
Nice dude….love the video. Hey some of those FN were like $45 , $65?!?? Why so pricey?
I think those are older editions that are now sold out and really hard to find
This is true! These are all older limited quarterly editions that are sold out online, but the remainder is still available at a markup in store
Living the dream! I’ve got to get there one day soon…
Hope you can!! I 100% recommend it!
When you said, “Mattie, you ready?” I don’t think she understood that you were basically saying “…. Are you ready to catch me when I pass out from excitement or hyperventalate” 😂
🤣🤣🤣 Maybe so!!
Shame Draplin wasn't around too, but that's super cool!
That would have been great to meet him! I'm grateful to have met Jim. Very cool guy, very passionate about the work!
Rad!
Yes it was!
Dang, lucky!! 🤩🤩

Thanks for sharing! I've definitely tried to use mine in the order that I got them, but I just use whatever I want at this point🤣
