BLACKBIRD'S BACK TO SCHOOL SURVIVAL KIT
Blackbird is here to get you all set for school. Now that the calendar pages have been flipped from August to September, the inevitable back-to-school dread begins to creep into the lives of many Blackbirders, but we here at the shop believe that with the aid of a few essentials, that dread can become a cool-headed anticipation. Please allow us to make a few recommendations...
ESSENTIAL #1 - THE BAG
Sturdy, comfortable, and handsome, this limited edition shoulder bag made for Blackbird by Filson is the ideal carry-all for the pupil or the professor. And for those who find themselves bored with Academia, we have included a harmonica and a bandana, to ease the transition into a free and easy rambling life.

ESSENTIAL #2 - THE BOOKS
The secret to success in the lecture halls and laboratories is simple: take good notes. To that, we recommend arriving with options. This handy Field Notes steno is perfect for jotting on the go, while the Dot Grid Book by Behance is a necessity for those whose creative output requires more freedom than the traditional "college rule."

ESSENTIAL #3 - THE BUZZ
Blackbird Coffee, roasted by Seattle's Caffé Vita, and coffee accessories are perfect for getting you over that morning hump. At various times throughout the school-year, one's whistle will require wetting, often in quite drastically different fashions. Thus, we offer you a couple of fine options from opposite ends of the spectrum. When used at the proper time and in the proper place, both will provide you with immeasurable refreshment.
