To counter the Woolrich stuff, I wear 5.11 pants (and numerous other items from from.)

What are 5.11 pants? Could you please provide a picture or link...or both? Thanks :thumbsup:

Edit: Never mind. I found them. Not enough pockets for me. Only 7 :laughing:

Around the neck 90% of the time. I got too much stuff in my pocket already. Other 10% its in one of the cargo pockets.

www.511tactical.com I should have posted a link.

I find too many pockets and items in them will lead me to throw stuff I don't want to be washed in the washer (forgetting to take them out.) I am simple enough with stuff in pockets (wallet, cellphone, keys, flashlight, knife, spare mag, and metrocard (a thin slip of palstic with a dedicated right hand cargo pocket so it doesn't bend.) Anything more in pockets and sprinting a few hundred yards for a bus is not a good combination. I run faster with a back pack for all the other stuff that isn't really needed.

I predominantly carry 1AA (D10, NDI, L1T) lights and these fit easily into a trouser or jacket pocket. On the odd occassion that I need to carry a larger light (TK10, SF L4, L2D), I use a belt holster.

Main light on a belt pouch and back up in pockets when at work.

Mostly in my pocket, but sometimes with a clip, bezel down inside pocket. I wear Woolrich Elite Series slacks(12 pockets) and shorts(10 pockets). I like to carry lots of stuff. What can I say:shrug:....I'm an EDC junkie:laughing:

You didn't show your chain and padlock pants-keepy-uppy system with double redundant Maxpedition cross over heavy duty shoulder straps for avoiding the urban 'youth' look!

That's top secret, and you need a security clearance to see those things....

At work when I need a light at the ready all the time I find that neck/lanyard carry is best. The light is right where you need it all the time. I can't stand carrying a bunch of stuff in my pockets. I usually have a backpack or bailout bag in which all of the EDC and backup equipment is kept.

Having a bunch of "stuff" in my pockets just gets in my way.
When I do not use a Lanyard for a neck worn flashlight I use an ART OF THE HIDE or Concealco holster. Both offer a great holster for flashlights.

I always have a backup flashlight somewhere close. Sometimes it is even in a pocket. If so it is the only thing in the pocket. Otherwise there are several flashlights in the bailout bag.

i'm all over the place. I voted belt cause i EDC a fenix TK11 in its case on my belt, but i almost allways have a nitecore NEX, jet II, or novatac 120P in my pocket. on the weekends i have one of the above around my neck. BTW all my lanyards have been homemade or modified using the "jzmtl technique" found in the "I hate lanyards" section here

Thanks for that by the way. i use the extra large saltwater swivels because they will not rust if the lanyard is under your shirt and subjsect to body sweat for a long period of time. These are more than strong enough, and small enough to fit every light i owns little lanyard hole. GREAT FIND!!!!!!! Thanks jzmtl !!!!!:twothumbs

Voted for the pocket as:-

(1) Im usually in a shirt, tie and dress pants so a flashlight on a lanyard hanging for the world to see isnt too well approved by the powers that be;

(2) Wearing it on a belt holster applies for the same reason;

However on weekends, belt holsters and lanyards are the rule for me.

(add also that my country is incredibly well lit and i get REALLY weird looks when i pull out my EDC)
