Field Notes – NOTEBOOK – Expedition 3 Pack

Description

Field Notes’ fifth year of Quarterly Editions – the Expedition notebook. The real innovation is the paper. The whole book is printed on Yupo Synthetic paper, an amazing tearproof and waterproof paper extruded from polypropylene pellets in Chesapeake, Virginia.

Note: Synthetic paper is nonporous and does not absorb ink like our conventional papers. Ballpoint pens, pencils, or fine tip Sharpies work best.
