Other

I thought this was a second amendment question. The wording is exactly the same as they would use.

That being said, other than phone, wallet and keys?

Nail clippers.

Quite a lot tbh.

• Water bottle to stay hydrated
• Nail clippers because if I don't carry them I pick my hangnails and my fingers would be perpetually bleeding lol
• Lip balm cause I get dry lips
• Moisturiser cause I get dry hands
• Tissues
• A multi-tool
• USB-C charger
• Wallet
• Keys
• Antibac wipes
• Hand sanitiser too lol
• Watch
• Lighter

Obviously it's a long list but these are small objects so it's not really a lot when you're carrying a bag.

I usually don't carry a phone or anything like that if I don't need it where I'm going; normally I can avoid it. But if I need a phone, laptop, etc where I'm going then I'll have that on me too.

• Keys
• Phone
• Bullet Space Pen
• Leatherman Skeletool
• Wallet
• Notebook

Depending on what I have going on that day I have a pair of Loop earplugs and a bit kit for the Leatherman I carry sometimes.

Right wrist (I'm a leftie): Garmin Instinct Crossover Solar Tactical (with generic glass screen protector and silicone case)

Front left pocket:

• A leather pocket organizer, holding:
  • Victorinox SKA (Cyber Tool M edition)
  • Fisher bullet space pen, brass
  • Olight AAA white led torch

Front right pocket: my iPhone 15 Pro Max in a black Spigen Tough Armor case

Back right pocket: a large handkerchief (I get bloody noses and my engine runs pretty hot - I can sweat a lot at times)

Back left pocket: reserved for my minimalist EDC wallet when I carry it (not the exact model, I don't always carry, as I can use my phone for everything, including digital driver's licence)

Belt, right side:

• Leatherman Surge stainless, using the pocket clip, but on my belt
• A spring clip carabiner, on a belt loop, holding
  • My house keys and a trolley token release tool, in a black leather Orbitkey
  • My car fob

Belt, left side: RAE Gear sheath for Leatherman bit kit, holding:

• Dual bit kit
• After-market bit kit extension (simply cannot get the Leatherman ratchet extension ANYWHERE!)
• Leatherman saw blade (file lives on my Surge)

When I go camping/offroading, I'll often put the Leatherman into a Toolbro holster, holding my Wuben L50 rechargeable torch.

Sadly, it looks like WJMake is no longer selling on Etsy (where I got the Toolbro), which is a real shame. They sold some really nice, handmade EDC accessories, and were happy to customise to suit my exact needs.

Mine has the extra elastic loop on the side to hold my Space Pen, an extra pocket on the front to hold the Leatherman saw blade, and they swapped out belt loops for a pair of belt clips, so I could wear/remove without having to undo my belt - a really important (to me) capability when camping and offroading.

I used to have my pockets always filled, but since a couple of years I have a leather bag (i.e. a manpurse or as my wife calls it: the gay bag) in which I have my work phone, keys, wallet, chewing gum, sunglasses, reading glasses, paper tissues and sometimes a drinking bottle. Also occasionally a book.

Something I'm not seeing here that is absolutely essential is a good flashlight.

Human beings can't do shit in the dark. Useful for power outages, dark areas, and if gets late. I end up using it more than my knife tbh.

Small leather wallet, iPhone 13 Mini, carabiner on belt loop with keys and small Swiss Army knife, Nalgene.

Flipside 4 wallet, put a clip on the lanyard to clip to my shorts so doesn't slip out of my pocket. I had a custom thin RFID made that I slipped between the outside of the lid's rfid-blocking plate and the plastic lid itself to get into my apt building's various doors. Wallet has all my cards and key, and cash for the rare times I have it.

I always carry a victorinox classic sd sak with a big orange Paracord lanyard on it so I don't lose track of it. It's black and limited edition with a cool skeleton carrying a Halloween bucket graphic.

I carry a Spyderco manbug as well, good slicer, small unscary size. Has super blue steel, so cool patina near the edge. I have a clip on that as well so doesn't fall out of my shorts pocket.

I have a modified Leatherman style ps as well, removed the scissors (scissors better on the sak anyways) and added a little titanium prybar that has a sharp enough edge for opening packages. That has a carabineer-style clip that clips on edge of my pocket.

I wear an apple watch ultra, good for apple pay, timers/alarms and texts. Siri to check stuff like sports scores in a pinch. Negates me needing actual phone, I tend to leave iPhone 13 mini in a cheap Etsy "Arnie" case (cameras are barrels of gun from that movie Commando) at home, unless I feel like I'll need the entertainment of f'ing with my phone wherever I'm going

I wear wedding ring out always, bracelet my wife made me often, next to the apple watch. Often have a mechanical wrist watch on other wrist, varies which (have a collection.) I often wear a couple/few Happy Beads bracelets with the mechanical watch to put the finishing touches.

Vast majority of the time I'm just wearing sandals, shorts & T-shirt (I work from home).

The above is my unique and probably awful/questionable taste, more of an admission than edc and/or fashion advice 😂😢

I treat my cargo shorts like a purse.

Phone in one pocket

Wallet in a side pocket. Started doing this on a vacation in a foreign city to be less pick-pocketable, and turns out I love it.

Another pocket contains a fuckload of little stuff. Earbuds, lip balm, contact solution eyedrops, weed pen, breath spray, car key, set of house keys and some others in a folding keyring to which I have also attached my eBike battery key and eBike lock key.

Oil-absorbing paper in another pocket, great for keeping the adult acne at bay.

Cargo shorts make me a card-carrying member of the Dork Squad, but damn do I love them. I can even fit my Switch in there if I want to.

It depends a bit on what bags I carry, what kinda pockets I have, what my needs are for that specific trip and what temperature it is.

Front right:

• keys (2 house keys, 2 USB thumb drives, some decorative key fobs and a carabinier to attatch my bike lock key that needs to be inside the lock while riding)
• 1 or 2 lighters
• tobacco, filter and papers for rolling cigarettes (when I'm wearing a shirt with front a pocket, the rolling stuff goes there)
• anything that's able to scratch my phone screen

Front left:

• phone (pixel 5)
• wallet (random leather wallet from amazon, that held up surprisingly well over the past ~5 years)

In my backpack for longer transit/going to the park etc:

• wallet in the backpack now
• headphones (bluetooth IEMs)
• whatever novel I'm currently reading
• umbrella
• water bottle
• a backup reusable shopping bag
• flashlight (some cheap USB rechargeable LED light with both a focused beam and a bigger LED in the handle for illuminating larger spaces)
• sometimes rolling stuff for joints inside a waist bag

When grocery shopping:

• other, bigger backpack with several reusable shopping bags

When its hot:

• a towel that I often just tuck in my pants a bit so it can dry better while hanging from my waist, when dry I usually keep it in my front left pocket
• usually also a folding hand-held fan, in my backpack when I happen to carry it, otherwise front right pocket

When I go out but don't want to carry my backpack I put the following inside the waist bag and carry that across my chest:

• cigarette rolling stuff, unless I've got a front pocket on my shirt
• sometimes also joint rolling stuff
• keys
• wallet
• usually headphones

Idk if this much detail was wanted but here you go lol

I carry my phone, ear buds, keys, wallet, a small pocket knife, and the ghosts of my past.

Except for the obvious ones (keys, id, phone) I always carry a USB C to C cable and a small bag with pretty much every USB adaptor I could find. The point is to be able to connect anything to anything. It sounds a bit weird but I've used it a lot. There is also a USB stick with 3-4 live OSes through Ventoy but that one isn't as useful.

phone, wallet, garage door opener. All things as small as i could reasonably get them. my wallet holds (and can only accommodate) my drivers license, work badge, and a debit card.

atm an iphone 14 pro. i used to use an android soap phone which was less than half the size, but sadly certain things didn’t work well on it :(

If you count a backpack, i always carry one with my laptop, a current book I’m reading, a handheld game console, and a small med kit with various otc drugs and bandages.

Good question! I always carry the vague sense that I've forgotten something.

Sony Xperia 5 III (has headphone jack) with LineageOS for microG. Shanling Q1 DAP/DAC. My everyday IEMs I take out of the house are Truthear Nova. I have a 10-year-old Ridge wallet & a mound of coins in the other pocket. Motorbike keys have nothing special other than an OnlyKey for TOTP/FIDO2.

Cell phone, a roll dog poop bags.

My phone has a couple RFID stickers that I've cloned my home & work access cards onto. I use tap to pay so I rarely need my wallet.

I like to carry as little as possible, unlike many here.

Phone: It’s iphone mini because fuck bigger phones

Card holder style wallet- only needs to hold a few cards so don’t need anything bulky: Bank card, drivers licence, Medicare card, construction induction card, myki card for public transport

Keys on carabiner: Car key, house key, mini screwdriver

Right pocket: Sunbeam F1 flip phone, space pen, moleskin notebook

Left pocket: rotates between Arduboy, Moaan eReader, Flipper Zero, or Rabbit R1

Rear right: wallet (containing car keycard)

Attached to belt: Ricoh GRIII camera

Phone, wallet, keys, 5 USB flash drives of various uses, sharpie, kershaw knife, multitool: I recommend the wave plus with bit kit and ratchet driver from leatherman, ChapStick, and lastly Glock 43x. Plus I usually tote a backpack around and that's a large list of goodies most people are shocked I use often. 32 oz insulated stainless tumbler and medication. If anyone has travel bag suggestions that's easy to carry unlike a backpack please speak up! Links are appreciated.

Probably the most unique thing is a Garmin watch w/ a built in flashlight. Which as someone not willing to carry an actual flashlight because I know I'll never both to take it out of my pocket 90% when I need it I find very useful. More smart watches should pick up the feature.

My weird thing is I always carry fingernail clippers. I started doing it because I have a bad habit of picking at my cuticles, and it helps to keep my nails trimmed. I've learned that it's a weirdly useful tool, though. It can cut things in a pinch, but no one sees it as something dangerous needing to be confiscated for example.

Pen, pocket journal, wallet, phone, and whichever pocket knife I grab that day.

I'm really a simple person, but I"m going to go into my favorite pocket knife and I'm angry that it's not made anymore. The SOG Q2. It's a "baton" shape" IE, slightly longer than a standard pen. Has a flashlight, bottle opener (with flatehead screwdriver, in other words beveled the bottle opener) and knife. The opening mechanism is such I've never had it accidentally come open on me, can be opened one handed, and to keep it from closing you're literally holding the body that goes over the knife.

I carry a thin fabric zippered wallet in a front pocket along with my keys.

I have a set of keys for each car. Each set has a tracker and house key.

And a phone in the opposite front pocket.

And an Apple Watch.

That’s it. That’s all I carry. And nothing goes in a back pocket to sit awkwardly on.
