How do you carry your EDC?

All except for #3 belt, i would never risk (or understand) a quality light clipped to a belt when I can so easily place it in a holster. I normally use #2 holster, with a back-up always on my keyring. At work I add a light in my pocket. Of course I have various lights available in my vehicle.

My .02 FWIW YMMV
 
On a typical workday in the summer, I don't carry a jacket. So I usually have the following on me:
  • Zebralight sc52 clipped in my backpack.
  • eagletac d25a Ti clicky xp-g2 next to it.
  • spark sg3 nw inside my bag (perfect for computer work)
  • eagletac p20a2 xp-g2 in my glovebox.
  • thrunite ti2 somewhere in my car, usually velcro'd in the trunk.
 
Besides the Photons on my keys I carry a Quark 1XCR123 in a small belt holster for work.Most other times I have a Mini MLR2 or Mini ML in my watch pocket.Occasionally I will carry a light clipped inside my pocket if I don't have a watch pocket.When I carry one of my larger lights it is in a back pants pocket,coat pocket or a holster.
 
Since this is a thread on carry, I'll ask here... Anyone carrying a light in a Skinth P3? I've got one coming and have high hopes my SC62w will fit in it (main tube is listed as 1.25")

But right now I carry SC62c clipped RFP and Eiger lug on a McGizmo clip on my keys.

For the last couple of years I had been carrying my light (usually a Fenix LD10 or LD12) clipped inside my back left pocket, keeping it as far to the outside as I could to prevent the discomfort of sitting on it. While looking for some new cargo shorts this spring, I started searching for something with a small dedicated knife/flashlight pocket. I came across the Tru-Spec 24-7 cargo shorts/pants (there are several different versions) and they have been perfect. There is a small pocket between the front and rear pockets on both sides which works perfectly for a small-ish flashlight. The pocket will hold something up to about 25mm in diameter and is about 100mm deep.

Usually carry my ZL SC52 loose in my left pocket alongside a Gerber Paraframe knife. I keep a small profile wallet between the two to keep them from scratching and wearing on each other.
 
A ZL H52 loose in my pocket.

I seem to be really good at scratching up anything and everything with a clip on the outside of my pocket.
Maybe I haven't tried it long enough and just need to figure out what I can/can't do when I have hard stuff on the outside of my clothes. :duh2:
 
did any one say they edc their edc every day?


that would have been funny if the op wasn't so specific with his question. in any event, h502 around my neck, preon 2 in my pen pocket and depending on if i'm meeting with a male or a female depends on how big a light i carry in my front pocket (i have stuck a maglite magcharger or sl-20 in my waistband on occasion)
 
On workdays I have a D25C Ti or D25A Ti clipped in my front right pocket, LD01 on they keys, and in my work bag I have a backup C15A plus extra batteries.
 
I carry a Streamlight stylus pro in my shirt pocket every day. I have tried pants pocket carry, not as comfortable when you add keys, knife ect.
 
I use kydex on my shooting rigs. Used to use the normal fabric pouches but kydex is so much cleaner.
 
I have my Gerber clipped onto my right pocket and my Surefire E2D LED on my left pocket. I keep them separate to prevent scratching and it makes it less bulky. I also keep a Surefire 6P in my glove compartment as a secondary.
 
Surefire A2 clipped in my front left pocket. Spyderco Millie in a custom belt sheath on my right side towards rear. Fat key rings hangin off a Maxpedition Keyper also on my belt.

And the only belt I wear is a Wilderness 5 stitch.
