What do I love about the mini-journal? I can have 4 little field books at the same time. I use them for different things, work and other interests. Now in one place I can keep notes on the things that keep my life moving.
— Derek L.
I needed something that could handle four notebooks in one. Daily pages, idea book, sketchbook, and random notes. The new version was the perfect fit for what I needed and I bring it everywhere.

When you split ~200 pages into 3-4 journal inserts, you immediately gain a lot of organization, improvements in finding things if you group intentions by insert, and the excitement that comes from finishing a book and cycling into a new one.

- ANAshley N.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoBetter Than Expected
This is my first Lochby product and the quality is better than I expected. The Mini Field Journal holds four Field Notes plus a few other small items. The pen loop is sturdy but still easy to use. This product will last for years to come and I am excited to see the eventual wear on it make it look even better.

Absolutely loving the perfect place to keep all my supplies together. Great quality too! I’m looking forward to having this mini field journal for years to come.
- CACameron A.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoPerfect Portability
I love this organizer. I work on a farm, am an avid birdwatching, and often find that paper notes gets me more in the moment, and out of my phone. The rigid back makes it easy to take quick notes anywhere, and made it very easy to write my wedding vows on a hike in Shenandoah. Multicam is a nice touch 👌
LOCHBY2 months agoWe’re so glad the Mini Field Journal is keeping up with your adventures and what an amazing way to put it to use for your vows! Thanks for sharing this with us and so happy to play a small part in such a big, important event!
- JGJohn G.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoBelieve the Hype!
If you want full size organization in a compact design, this Mini Field Journal is for you. Quality design and construction. The Black Multicam in waxed canvas should look great for years to come.
My current notebook setup
1. Weatherproof (you know the brand) pocket calendar to keep my schedule
2. dot grid notebook for journaling and habit tracking
3. lined notebook for to do lists and note taking
4. blank notebook for everything else.
This has definitely kept me on time, on task and more productive.
Great product from Lochby.
