Field Notes: Ignition (Winter 2021)

CONDITION: BRAND NEW

Two Planners, One Checklist. Waterproof Outside. Conventional Inside. Each 3-Pack contains two 26-Week Planners and the third book is a "Checklist Journal".

4, 3, 2, 1… Ignition.

We all need a place to jot down the first sparks of a big new idea, to record our "notes to self," and to remind ourselves to pick up the doggo at 4 p.m. on Thursday. Our regular Field Notes Planner is great, but we’re frequently asked for a smaller edition. Our previous limited-edition pocket planners (the long-gone Ambition and Resolution editions) were also great, but we wanted to find a way to fit even more into a Memo-sized date book.

You’ll find that the new Winter 2021 "Ignition" set checks all the boxes. Each 3-Pack contains two 26-Week Planners. Splitting the year into two books gives you a full spread for each week, making more space for each day and incorporating a weekly “To do, or…” list that can be used for productivity or inspiration. Each page also features a bit of practical advice, direct from Field Notes staff. Note that the pages are undated, allowing you to start either book anytime and fill in the dates as you go.

The third book is a "Checklist Journal" featuring the popular “Screwhead Device” that we introduced in the 2017 “Resolution” Edition. It's great for to-do lists or bullet journaling… or ignore the Screwheads, and use it like any ruled notebook.

The covers are made from water-and-tear-proof synthetic paper from Yupo that will hold up to a whole year’s worth of abuse. The book’s interior page design is subtly varnished over the cover color. The innards are our reliable 60# Finch with gray rules, bound with black staples.
