A paper goods and single-pen case designed and distributed by Nock Co. , it has been released in various size variants since its introduction in June 2014 [1]. The standard version is index card-sized. In early 2015, the XL-variant was released, designed to fit pocket notebooks [2]. In Spring 2017, a Mini-variant was teased and released at the Chicago Pen Show, sized for business cards and mini- and pocket-sized pens. The mini size has yet to make an appearance as a staple offering.

This line was named after a mountain in Northeastern Georgia, USA.

Limited Runs[edit]

Since its inception in Summer 2014, there have been a handful of limited color variants and size offerings. Here are some of them.

  • 'Smango' Fodderstack - A 20-count run of a Fodderstack variant in late 2014 that was packaged with DustyBlue DotDash notecards. This limited run case sported the affectionately-named 'Smango' color combo: Snow White-exterior / Mango-interior [3].
  • 'Snowjay' Fodderstack - Another 20-count run of color variant Fodderstack in 2014. The colorway included Snow White-exterior / Blue Jay-interior [4].
  • Leather Fodderstack XL - A third Atlanta 2017 exclusive was an XL-sized Fodderstack, but stitched as a leather case, rather than the usual canvas. This is the first product to have been in leather.
  • Fodderstack Mini - For the Chicago Pen Show 2017, Nock Co. teased and released a mini variant to the Fodderstack in various colorways, including: Orange-exterior / Yellow-interior, Sky Blue-exterior / dark Yellow-interior, and Forest Green-exterior / Blue-interior. This new size is said to fit business card-sized paper, and mini- or pocket-pens such as the Kaweco Sport or Fisher Space Pen.
