Can't beat them for quality.
Great pad, robust, fits nicely in your chest pocket. I used it in Brecon a lot and it's withstood the elements. They are expensive but I wouldn't trust a cheaper brand

Combine with a space pen and its a great pairing notes in any environment.
I work in the Oil & Gas industry and often need to take notes in damp, wet, greasy or oily conditions. The regular tally books I get given from work always fall apart and spoiled easily.This notepad combined with a Fisher Space pen allows me to take notes in rain or when grease/oil gets on the paper and the paper is truly hydrophobic. Water drops just run off and the space pen ink doesn't get smudged either.Great combination.

Good size notepad
Good sized notepad for EDC pouch, rucksack or coat pocket. Can be used in the wet/damp with a suitable pen.

Durable and works in heavy rain and muddy conditions.
I run an engineering consultancy and have site engineers in the field digging trial pits every day. They need to take notes in all weather conditions and often in heavy rain with muddy hands. We've been using rite in the rain notepads for years and they work well with biros and pencil in the rain and mud. My only issue is the price, I've started exploring cheaper alternatives recently that are nearly half the price of RitR products. Ideally I'd like to see Rite in the Rain offer a substantial discount for bulk purchases and sell boxes of 25 or 50.

Solid
The media could not be loaded. Pages in this pad are like those luxurious cloth-like napkins that you only get at Christmas when you go to somebody else house, when they want to impress you: each page feels too good to tear out and throw away, so each pen stroke is likely something you’d put more thought into, especially given the size of the notepad’s pages.The versatile design of the paper allows for both all weather pens, as well as ones closer to hand. However, directions discourage the use of gel ink pens (which I put to the test) over the preferred ball-point, but I found both to work well in post-wet conditions (after time to cure). Unfortunately the all weather pens cost the Earth (ironically) and so I am grateful that even wax crayons will do the job, knowing how pens can just go missing.This is a notepad and that’s all anybody really needs it to be, but sometimes the design department gets bored, or it feel the heat from new competitors and begins to over-bloat their design with additional swiss-army-knife like functionality. Yes, it does that, with conversion tables and ruled edges on the toughened plastic front and back covers, but it’s not intrusive and could be useful as this product likely serves many industries.For myself I have seen first hand how even unrecommended writing tools are taken care of and that’s enough for me. “Write in the Rain” - I could be crying when I write ..o0 (food for thought)This is a product that is made in the United States of America, which, if you’re from a First World country, means something.

Unusual
A waterproof notebook that has lots of useful information on the inside cover, including a metric and imperial ruler. Very very useful for someone who likes the outdoors. And an unusual if not novel gift

Recommend these notepads to everyone, Came in yellow though..
These are some of the most durable notepads Ive ever used. I dropped one of my notepads into a bucket of diesel by accident, let it drip off, and it still worked like a charm. 10/10 would recommend to anyone to use.I purchased the black ones and they came to me in yellow so there is that but it’s still the same product and honestly I would have lost the black one anyones so it worked out.

The only review you'll need about this notebook
The thing I hate about reviews, they are typically written by customers who didn't read or research the product to begin with. So let me help you make this decision.I've used these books for over ten years back when Brigade Quartermasters was printed on the back as the military supplier.**Important**You cannot use gel pens. Now say it with me " I will not use gel pens or highly liquid inks on this paper to include highlighters, fountain pens, water colors, and acrylic paint ". There we go, got that out of our system now. Common sense kicks in right about now as it's a waterproof paper, so if you're upset about that, that's a you problem and not a product defect. Pencils are my go-to writing instrument; however, the paper is treated and you'll see noticable erase marks. Sharpie works well but will bleed through slightly sand the poster must be dry. Actually, it's more so a noticable color differential, if you passed basic science class you'll understand the difference between black and white and thus why you can see sharpie on the backside. I've never had it completely bleed through from taking a quick note. However, if you're leaving the sharpie on it long enough to bleed through, again that's a problem with you and not the product.DO NOT write on this paper while diving. I say that but I guarantee somebody will write a complaint about it not having an IP rating. Babies, paper, and comms typically don't fair well underwater. It's not my area of expertise so ask a diver. A real one and not a Navy Seal.The notebooks were originally issued to me in the Marines, and was treated as an essential piece of my uniform. I drew up battle plans for years on these. Back when I turned the battlefield into my own lead infused chaotic artistic interpretation of Starry Night. Ten years later the paper is still intact and no fading or discoloration on a notebook I found recently.The Cover displays useful conversion for maps, measurements, and linear (see pictures). The back cover also gives you a ruler up to 4 1/4" inches and 11cm.These books are in every trauma and boo boo first aid kit I own. They are stored in every toolbox, glove compartment, emergency kit, camping gear, and next to my toilet when I brilliant idea comes to me during my morning glory. I was the officiant at my ex wife's wedding and wrote the speech in the shower the morning of.At the end of the day it's a pad of paper. You're buying it for it's durability in all weather climates. If the Amphibious Apocalyptic dealers of death we call Marines use them around the world in every clime or place, I'm sure you're "to-do" list will be ok.In conclusion, buy the notepad and if you regret your purchase, you're probably somebody that's irrationally difficult to please and found it necessary to express their dislike via a review because that's what difficult and unhappy people do. It's a notepad much like a baby, don't submerge it and expect it to work like advertised. Use the writing instruments instructed by the manufacturer, and use the thing in-between your ears. You're welcome!

Very handy!
Being a biology student I need to be able to use a pen and paper no matter the weather and these fit really well into any of my pockets!I’m also a sucker for lists and an author so constantly need to have with me a notebook. (I use my phone as well but paper doesn’t have a battery that could die)It’s expensive and you can’t use just any pen, but for me and my needs it was worth it👍🏻
