Rite in the RainRite in the Rain Weatherproof Green Book, 4.625” x 7”, Tactical Green Soft Cover, Universal Pattern with Army Reference Material (No. 980)

A few different operational pages since the last time I bought one of these at the PX but still the great RITR notebook I've come to expect and love.Great for taking notes on your outdoor adventures where it may be damp or a sudden downpour would ruin an ordinary note book. Spend a little extra and get a RITR notebook. You won't be disappointed!

I am a lead landscaper at a local university. I'm in all kinds of weather. I also help irrigation guys and in the rain a lot of times. This note book including the waterproof pens. Are 100000 percent PERFECT FOR MY JOB AND EVERYTHING ELSE. THE NAME SAYS IT ALL RITE IN RAIN. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS FOR ANYONE AROUND OR IN WATER. ESPECIALLY MILITARY FOR TACTICAL NOTE. AND THEY ONE JUST FOR THAT. ITS THE FIELD TACTICAL CAN YOU TELL MENOTE BOOK

First found Rite in the Rain when deployed, still use them to this day at work.Recently just bought the green notebook and it came with a free tan cover, and a black pen.I’ve used it in the rain, and mud and these notebooks hold up. If you abuse your notebooks and gear these are the way to go.

I was first introduced to Rite in the Rain notebooks at USMC Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virginia. These durable notebooks come in a variety of sizes and are typically found in either green or tan. In addition, each size has a corresponding fabric notebook cover that are very useful. In my time in the Marines, I think I have tried every size / color / cover combination.This size is by far the most useful for anyone either in the military or who otherwise desires to use one notebook for a significant period of time. The other notebooks are a more convenient size, but have too few pages and quickly become filled with field notes, orders, lecture notes, grocery lists, phone numbers, maps, and sketches. This size can hold up to 4-6 months of notes for someone who writes in it every day. In addition, this size also has useful military information and reports in the back. It also fits well in a cargo pocket or vest pouch.The notebooks are durable, except sometimes the cover can lose it's plastic peeling. If they get submerged in water, simply let them dry and keep on using them. There are some pens that don't work well with this, such as gel pens. The best thing to use with this notebook are either regular pencils or plain ball pens. Permanent markers also work very well. I recommend these notebooks with enthusiasm.

Thickness is kind of a stupid metric for a notebook.That aside, this notebook is pretty much perfect for what I needed it for. It fits nicely in the back pocket of almost all of my pants, it holds up well, and it is easy to write on (I use fisher space pens). I haven't really "torture tested" it, as in putting it through the washer, leaving it out side for a week, etc., but for day to day use, and daily carry, it is awesome.

I am in ROTC and I needed a notebook to use in all types of conditions. I find this product works perfectly for what I need. It fits in my cargo pocket easily and is very durable. The notebook has gotten wet and has had sand crammed in between almost every page and the pages are still great. It does look a little worn but that is expected. It also works great as a hard surface to write on when you are out in the field. It is also nice that along the side of the pages they are perforated if you need to tear out a page. The binding is a little stiff at first and makes it a little stiff to open but with use it will break in very nicely.

I got into a car accident and my car was flooded with water and I just so happened to have my notebook with me and it definitely held up. All my ink stayed on the paper. It’s really durable

Received very quickly & in perfect condition. Haven't gotten a chance to put it to use yet, but I can see that it will be quite useful.Planning on using it to make range cards and sketch cards when I go target shooting. The 1/4" grid lines on the pages will make accurate scaling easy, in combination with the English/Metric conversions and various scales listed on the inside of the front cover.Each individual page also has a small area in the corner for you to record your own custom scale ("One Square=____"). Lots of very cool/useful information listed on the final 16 pages & inside back cover. Maybe not exactly "usable" to anyone except military personnel...but quite interesting and fun to "play around with" if you're into military info (like me).Pages and cover themselves both feel very durable. Even if you're not using this to write in wet weather/climates, this book will likely be able to hold up to lots of hard use. Each page is also perforated for easy removal. I will absolutely be purchasing more of these when the pages get filled up. After seeing/feeling a RIR (rite in the rain) notebook, "normal" notebooks just don't feel like they "cut it" anymore for me.If you like the field-flex book as much as I did, I highly recommend you have a look at their product page. They have LOTS of awesome stuff, including looseleaf paper and printer/copier paper. Not to mention all their cases and all-weather pens...([..])
