Notebooks & Pens

The examined life requires notes from time to time.

My advice: don’t get too fussy.

StudioNeat Totebook. Great paper. Great cover. Archivable.
Baron Fig Notebooks. Solid.
StudioNeat Pano Book. Designed to fit between you and your laptop.
Field Notes. Keep it in your pocket.

Or these CR-Brand Wallet Notebooks have come in quite handy for me as well.

StudioNeat Mark One. If your favorite coffee shop was a pen. This is that pen.

Pokka Klip works with this pen.

Tombow Brush Pen. Cheap way to get much more interesting notes.
Retro 51 Tornado. The best affordable pen.
Bellroy Micro Pen. Very small rollerball.
Everyman Pen. Very solid.

We don’t accept payment for coverage unless specified as an advertisement or sponsored post, and our opinion and analysis are the product of our years of experience in product design. Most of our revenue is made through referral programs, which means that if you click on one of our product links, Matterful might receive a small commission at no cost to you. This helps support us, and allows us to keep providing videos, reviews and guides. Most of the time we work directly with small manufacturers who rely on influencers like Chase here at Matterful, and we love working these folks. We have relationships with so many of these indie manufacturers now, and they make such great products, that we're not incentivized one way or the other to recommend anything in particular to you... we stand to earn the most over time by being valuable to you, not any given manufacturers. If you’re dissatisfied with what we recommended and you return the product, we don’t see any money from it. Our continued financial success depends on making the best possible recommendations, and your satisfaction with the products we recommend.
