8 Best Everyday Pouch Carries - EDC Weekly
/
Due to the explosive popularity of tiny EDC pouches and ranger eyes (REs), it only felt obvious to dedicate an EDC Weekly to pouch carries. Below, you’ll find some of the spiciest pouch carries from the community, from Maxpedition pouches that would make MacGyver proud to the elusive Mighty Pouch by Garage Built Gear, packed to the brim with all sorts of pocket trash.

Usually carry this in my bag or toss it in the car. The way I have carried a lot of my EDC has changed greatly. I used to pack my pockets full, now I try to keep them light and keep all the extra in the new mighty pouch. It works great with this set up! This also has some Velcro area for some ranger eye patches! When is The Best Damn EDC dropping their own set of REs?!

This pouch travels between my work bag and my off-work carry bag. It has both things I don’t carry on my body every day as well as backups for my flashlight and knife. The Bali trainer has been great anytime I’m stuck somewhere waiting and need something to do. The pouch is small enough I can throw it in a pocket for days I don’t want to carry a bag around too.

My EDC changes daily but if I’m going to be out and about most of the day, this is what my pouch will contain 90% of the time. The Ki-V solves most if not all cutting tasks I might come across during the day, also pulls double duty as a fidget toy. The Fulcrum gets way more use than I ever thought it would. Scraping off stickers that my kids stick everywhere, breaking up frozen bread. The mini Philips and flathead bits are great for glasses and repairing toys.
There aren’t any REs on the pouch so I guess I can’t sit with the cool kids. Main reason being that most or the cool REs are from the US and seeing as I live in Sweden I end up paying more in shipping than I do for the REs. Might go down the rabbithole at some point though who knows.

My tools/knives I usually use while on motorbike rides, which happen nearly every day. If you ride a bike and travel thousands of Kilometers you kinda know that you better not leave without tools. I keep it simple and travel efficiently. That’s why all organized in a small pouch. While you’re on the road you also often need to prepare your food, that’s where knives come in handy. The notebook and the pen I use mostly to write down some photography spots, and those were the best times and pictures I took while there.

The Fossil Hybrid Watch I’ve found to be the perfect blend of a traditional timepiece and smartwatch. It vibrates whenever I receive an important notification, counts my steps, and lets me control the music on my phone. The insane battery lasts at least 6 months. The Yellow Birch PocKit Pico ensures my EDC is kept organized and in one place so nothing is loose in my pockets, and it saves me time faffing about when I want to quickly grab something. I use it to carry all my pocket gear, except my iPhone.
The MiniChamp is fantastic and handles many jobs around the house or out and about. Top tip - I use the orange peeler to open those annoying hard plastic packages, it cuts through them like butter! The latest item to join my EDC is the Rail Slider and it is the most used thing on this list. It is relaxing to play with, the magnets are strong, the haptic feedback is satisfying and the sound is very clicky. I cannot seem to put it down!

In addition to my regular EDC, I’ve started tossing this pouch into my bag or car. It contains some regular or useful tools. I have a couple of bigger “fix it” and emergency kits, but this one ends up handing most of my daily needs and I end up reaching for it ahead of the more “equipped” kits. I like to keep a few things around for quick repairs, quick clean-ups, and quick recharges (for me and my phone). While a lot of those “occasionally useful” tools are small enough to be pocketable, carrying a lot of them still adds up. Offloading into a nearby pouch helps me feel secure that they’re available, but not really weighing me down.

The Olight EDC organizer was a free giveaway in the recent Olight sale for submitting an Olight story. Really well made and great size for a fall carry. Perfect size for my EDC need. I’m Looking for simple pill storage for my EDC to take my medicine with me.
