What's in your EDC bag?
on: December 09, 2018, 04:49:37 PM
Do you carry an EDC bag? What's in there?

I'm waiting for my new sling bag to arrive and am gathering some stuff I want in there.



* Hat and gloves (Just for winter)
* 2 little lights
* Cheap MT
* Sharpie
* Lamy pen with 4 different fillings
* Screwdriver with bits
* Pouch with medical gloves
* Charging cables
* Chap stick, lip butter and a stick for bug bites.
* A lanyard I've found, no purpose yet
* Tiny wallet for some extra money ICE
* Little stand for the Iphone, in case I forget the Kenu Stance
* My EDC Tin



There are a few more items that are needed, for example a powerbank. Need to buy a new one, the Xtorm died on me last month.
Oh, and some painkillers for those headaches…

I live in an urban environment, so need for axes or stuff like that.
What do you think I should add?

And… please show yours!

I kinda stopped carrying my bag, cause we really don’t go anywhere, and if we do home is in walking distance since thats all we do, now if we have to go somewhere then it kinda changes things,,

Used to wear that on my duty belt to carry medical gloves. Since I'm a dispatcher now, I don't need it at the job anymore.

A better look at the 'pens'. Like the screwdriver, can always come in handy.

Here’s a pic of my bag, I’m not going through everything, too much to list, but as you can see there’s medical, some tools, food stuff, poncho, light stick, monocular, idk where the flashlight is, and some other stuff.
That’s the big bag, which you can see I made very unique, there’s plenty of room for everything, yet, if while out if I need room to put stuff in you can unzip and it doubles in size!
That other smaller one is what I used to carry, everything would fit but “packed”.. I gave it to the kid but I’m kinda thinking of taking it back and not using the one I have cause there’s soooo much room in the one I have..

Putting it al together, it may be a little bit too much. See if I can slim it down a bit.
But the bag needs to arrive first so I can really see how it's working all together.

I don't EDC a bag but if I did it would be to full of stuff...  :D

A female coworker of mine does carry a handbag. The thing is, in the bag there is something like a had bag organiser. Then she has an absurdly big wallet (I've seen girls with handbags of that size). And in the wallet there are credit cards in plastic protective cases. So she has this matryoshka doll of stuff with stuff in it to carry other stuff in going on.  :D

Also, I am looking at some messenger bags. Might actually buy one once in the near future.  :think:

Had too much stuff too, so slimmed it down a little.
Think this might be nice.
Ordered little tactical pouch at Ali Express.
That will be there instead of that leather pouch.
I think it will also replace the glove pouch and the headphone pouch. Notebook can benpit in there also.
Everything neatly tucked together.
I ordered the black version of this.

Slimming down my EDC never worked for me. As soon as I get some extra space it inevitably fills up. EDC abhors any lack of too much gear.  :D  :facepalm:

The bag has arrived!!! A little smaller then I thought, but still very nice.
Left out the glove pouch, takes up too much room.
If I recieve my little tactical pouch, everything from the leather bag, headphone pouch and glove pouch can go in one little pouch.

Now the bag!!!

Front and back…
There's an extra loop that'll go around your hips. Not gonna use that, so tucked it away a little.




The inside…
There's a little mesh pocket on the side and a big pocket at the bottom.
I still need to add the powerbank, but that one is still charging. But, plenty of room.



In the belt is a little pouch at the front and I already found out that my car keys fit perfectly.



There's a little pocket on the front side of the bag, perfect for gum and stuff.
Also put on a little light that can switch between red and white.
I take a lot of walks and this way people can see me better in the dark.


It's not too heavy and sits comfortable on my right shoulder. I think I'm gonna like this a lot!!!

You're right…

Put three really little pins on there. But I put them on to keep the belts in place.

This one I've got because I adopted a name on 'The wall of the missing' at the American War Cemetery in Margraten.



The poppy flower I've got because I've adopted a grave at the British War Cemetery in Brunssum.



A couple of years ago 'Serious Request' (A DJ thing to raise money for the Red Cross) was in the city I worked. Cops could buy this little pin, so I did.



Better?

A little dressing up makes it personal :like:

Nice bag :tu:

That screwdriver with (4 mm?) bit kit is intriguing - where did you get that?

Thank you!!! Bought it online a couple of years ago.
But found it here…

They are a neat little screwdriver, I got the same one and it’s come in handy a couple times, i think I got mine off eBay, but I’ve seen them even in stores, only diff between some of them are the bits. I think they even had a three pack, three colors, yet one had all Philips/reg, another Allen, and other torx..

Maybe I'll switch some bits out with the other 'big' set. See if I can buy another one just for the bits and add the best ones to the 'pen'.
