Everyday carry

Everyday Carry (EDC)

These items are what I normally carry on a daily basis. Your needs may be vastly different, but I emphasize functionality and practicality over fashion.

CLOTHING (I tend to stick with the "gray man" look of one solid color; in my case, black):
Backpack:
My main backpack is the NOOLA Military Tactical MOLLE Backpack in black. The backpack part alone has a 50L capacity, and it comes with a small bottle holder, a small dump pouch, and a fanny pack with detatchable belt. That belt is what I use for other carry stuff. If you're going to get a backpack, I recommend getting something MOLLE compatible, and I really recommend the aforementioned one. I also recommend getting extra pouches, like the Mission Darkness Dry Shield MOLLE Faraday Pouch. It's a great way to store your electronics if you're going into a major retailer that uses tracking devices to monitor your cell phone and bombard you with ads. Another couple of things I recommend getting are polymer straps and D-rings. Both are compatible with the MOLLE system and can attach more stuff to your backpack.

When it's impractical for me to use my backpack, I put the fanny pack's belt on with a large bottle holder and a separate dump pouch. One such pouch is large enough to hold my 7th generation iPad.
When I'm riding my bicycle (Schwinn Loop folding bike), I'm putting 4 MOLLE pouches on it. The pouches are as follows:
OTHER GEAR I CARRY:
COMPUTERS I USE AT HOME:
My primary computer at the moment is a Lenovo ThinkPad T450 (i7 variant) modified with 16GB RAM and a 2TB HDD partitioned as follows:
I also have a Steam Deck (OLED, 1TB) I primarily use to play games on but it is also set up to be a PC if I need it.
