I thought it may be interesting to see how everyone carries their gear on a daily basis. Weather it be belt wear, pocket carry or side saddle bag, etc.... Photos are welcome as well. In this post I'm not looking for a "list ofyour edc" per say, rather how its toted daily.

Hi!

I always have my keyring (Leatherman Micra, Photon Freedom, keys) and wallet on my person. When I wear a coat, I have a LM Fuse (soon to be Huntsman SAK) along with a mini-Bic lighter in my left pocket. The right coat pocket has a Buff bandana wrapped around my Motorola V400 cell phone.

I don't like having things hang from my belt (I don't even carry my cell phone on my belt when i'm at work, only when i'm outside the office/home). So yes, i'm not totally "equipped" when I go to the washroom but I still have my Leatherman Micra, Photon Freedom and wallet with a few band-aids.

So, to get back to your question : messenger back mostly, nothing on belt or around the neck. Extra items in coat pockets.

Pocket carry and a thin (1" wide) money-belt. I also have a small pack with shoulder strap and waist strap - this one.

My EDC is lyered. The first layer is a lanyard with a knife, whistle and an LED. The second layer is in my pockets and the third layer is usually a Maxpedition Jumbo Fatboy.

My EDC fits in my pockets. That being said, it's tailored for suburban rather than wilderness.
