XOXO Field Notes

Field Notes made special editions for their friends at Portland, Oregon’s XOXO Festival for the past few years, and, like last year, XOXO had some extras and they’ve graciously allowed Field Notes to make them available to the public.
Each 3-Pack features three different black-and-white illustrations by artist Brendan Monroe with light gray graph paper inside.

The Shenandoah Edition

The Fall limited-edition seasonal release, “The Shenandoah Edition” features three green French cover stocks that match the leaf color of three trees found at Shenandoah National Park: the Sweet Birch, the Chestnut Oak, and the Red Maple. field Notes new friends at Platinum Converting in Itasca, Ill. fused each of the green papers to a contrasting French text-weight paper that matches the tree’s fall foliage. These extra-sturdy duplexed covers have a classic, beefy feel to them, reminiscent of early COLORS releases like “Mackinaw Autumn” and “Just Below Zero.” Beefier, actually, since Field Notes upgraded their body paper to 60#T Finch Opaque “Bright White,” with a 3/16″ graph. Each features an illustration of a leaf on the back with some facts about the tree. The belly band is real birch veneer.
