EDC flat lay: what’s in your pockets?

There may be some overlap here with the Tilted Weapons forum.

Everyday Carry is a thing, wildly popular in certain corners of YouTube, Instagram, Discord, etc. For a while I followed the godfather of EDC’s YouTube channel until he got annoying, but before then I entered the following to be featured in his EDC Weekly, a show series dedicated to showcasing flat lay photos of his follower’s carries.

So, without further delay…



- Luminox Atacama Adventurer watch
- RoadID Elite 13mm badge and black rubber bracelet
- Andar Apollo wallet
- Spurcycle key clip in stainless steel; includes Rongbo quick release detachable pull apart key ring and Opret Titanium Mini pill fob
- iPhone XR in a Gear4 D30 phone case
- GiantMouse GMF1-FS with black leather sheath
- Benchmade 535BK-2 Bugout
- Zippo lighter in street chrome
- Kaweco AL Sport fountain pen
- William Painter The Hook polarized sunglasses
- Stanley Adventure Stainless Steel 8 oz flask in Hammertone Green

The photo above was the one I submitted (it wasn’t picked), though I took these two alternate shots as well:




And it’s got me wondering…

What’s in your pockets (or purse, satchel, fannypack, backpack, or other means of carrying stuff around with you wherever you go)?

 

Excellent point, [mention]genuinemommy [/mention] … EDC is certainly not just for pockets alone, and I’ve edited my post accordingly.

I do love my Stanley flask. It’s pretty much bombproof, though the plastic hinged part that keeps the screw on cap attached to the flask snapped off a while ago. Doesn’t detract from its functionality beyond a heightened level of vigilance that I don’t loose the cap.

 

I actually have two different satchels, one is a Tumi model I've had for over 25 years, and the other is a WW2 gas mask bag that I've had for about 23 years (I replaced the strap recently, though)


What I carry in them varies wildly, depending on where I'm going.

A partial list:
- Spare change
- Pen & notepad
- Knife
- Water bottle
- Cameras & assorted related gear, like lenses & spare batteries
- Band-Aids & alcohol wipes
- Spare bootlaces
- Bullwhip
- Plastic cigarette lighter (I don't smoke, but you never know when you might need a fire source)
- Flashlight
- Spare keys

If the occasion is casual & close by, it'll be the Tumi bag with little in it. If it's a bit of a haul and out somewhere scenic, it's the military bag.

 

i dont have a current picture but i will take one.
everyday i have a pocket knife,
a lighter,
a cross that was my grandads, then given to my mom, then she gave it to me years ago
and whatever change i have accumulated that day
and a wallet in my back pocket.

thats about it. sorry its not exciting, ill get a picture

 

Mine is pretty basic, & boring, since I very rarely carry any kind of bag.

In my pockets...
Wallet.
Car keys.
Pocket knife.
Sometimes loose change.
Occasionally a small pistol in a holster (legal requirement) in my pocket.
Occasionally a spare magazine for the pistol on my belt.

Near my pockets...
Cell phone in a holster that I clip to my pocket.
Pistol in a holster on my belt.

 

@ralphie250 and @Chris Noyb, pictures pictures pictures! I need details!

 

I'll see what I can do later.

 

I hope this works, my not very recent history with posting images here sucks.

Late edit...I'm don't know if I could get everything in one image.

 

Huh...success. And now failure. I wanted this done in order, oh well.

 

Another try.

 

I'm on a roll. No, I'm not.

Edit: Pocket carry semi-auto.

 

Last fucking try.

 

I sill do that. to be honest i had forgotten, but i will

 

Aha!!
