Very happy to see this new forum.

My backpack BOB is in the car about 50 yards and 5 flights of stairs from my current office. All the stuff mentioned and more lives in the BOB.

I agree the clothing thing is very important. I, too, wear Rockports nicely polished most of the time and am transitioning to REI tech undergarments.

My job requires suits or sportcoats and slacks, dress shirts andties, and dress shoes fairly often. Some places security allows in my EDC; some let me stash it at the door; and some ban it from the building. My wallet has non-metallic mini-PSK supplies.
