Everyday Carry is typically about carrying the core essentials. From time to time, that gets conflated into carrying a bunch of excessive, overbuilt gear that weighs on the pockets and is sometimes useless. There’s nothing inherently wrong with carrying things that don’t have a direct purpose in your carry, it’s all your prerogative. But sometimes, it’s necessary to cut out the fat and carry just what you need to use, and only that.
Quite often, companies get caught in a race to the bottom, to make things smaller for the sake of being smaller. But there’s a fine balance between size and utility.
In the video above, you’ll find a carry that showcases the smallest gear without sacrificing utility, and it just so happens to tuck neatly into an Altoids tin. You can find links to all the included items below.
