Hello all I wanted to share some of the edc bags that i make and use. I carry my lights amongst other things in them and figured this might interest some.



What type of edc pouch bags are you guys using and why?

Which one? I have half a dozen :)
most are at least a foot square though.
Which ones do you use the most? lets say specifically for going around town and getting groceries? lol what do you carry in them?


Also checked out your music channel! Cool stuff! I compose music with fl studio 10 and with my midi keybaords as well. Nice gear you have!

well I can`t really answer the first one because it wouldn`t mean anything if I said my grey suede one :D as for what I carry it`s quite a long list really but I`ll stick with the more gender neutral things: Phone, vape, keys, 3 lights, a lighter (I don`t smoke but it can be useful), a small multi-tool and knife, a pen, band aids, safety pins, obvs my money and credit cards, glucose tablets, antacids, pain killers.The rest is girl stuff and probably wouldn`t interest you ;)

my versions:

1. a Compact (mirror)
15. kleenex tissue pack
16. lipstick

yours sounds great as a camping back-up! mine`s more geared for urban use (with kids), though the Duct tape`s given me ideas! LOL :D

You can roll ductape around your lighter or an old credit card sized card or a credit card to keep it lo profile. You can also roll beeswax hempt coradage around your lighter to use as a makeshift candle.

Keeping survival stuff handy in a bugout bag is one thing, but carrying it around all day living in the city would be a bit weird IMO.
