So what does my EDC look like?

00:00 Introduction

00:47 First of all, I have a Google Pixel 2 XL because for me, as an online entrepreneur, having a quality smartphone is essential. Not only can I answer my email, but I can also run the backend of our shop, I can look into customer service requests, I can see how sales are doing, at the same time, I use it at home to either control my Lutron lights, to turn off my alarm system, to open my garage doors, as well as my doors, to check the water shut-off valve, or whatever else that is app-based these days.

So where do I wear it? Usually, it's in my chest pocket on the left side because it's slimmer than my wallet and if I have the pocket square on the left, it balances out very nicely.

01:26 For my main wallet, I use the very first prototype of Fort Belvedere wallets that is several years old, but it's in pretty good shape, and usually, we test everything extensively before we offer in our shop.
I usually wear it in my right chest pocket. If I happen not to wear a jacket or a coat without those chest pockets, I usually wear my wallet in my right back pocket and my phone in my left back pocket that way I don't have anything on the sides, and I find it more comfortable.

02:07 Keys are essential to most of us, and actually I only use them if I Drive a car or my bike otherwise it's controlled from my phone I don't like having all the bulk so try to have keys with as few keys as possible in this case just a car key or just the bike keys. If I wear a vest, I carry the key in there because you don't really notice it and you don't even feel it on your body if I wear a jacket I usually wear it in the side pocket and oftentimes there's a little inside pocket that is smaller that way it doesn't destroy your silhouette but everything looks neat and it's very easy to grab it at any point in time If I don't have a jacket with pockets I wear them in my right pants pocket.

Extended EDC essentials

03:08 First of all, it's probably the wristwatch. Most men like and wear them. Personally, I'm not a huge wristwatch guy I very rarely wear one if I want to have a timepiece then maybe I'll go with a pocket watch, but sometimes I just skip even that.

03:35 The second item is a business card case I carry it with me where I go because you never know who you're gonna meet and who wants to have your card.

04:12 The third extended item would be a handkerchief. No, it's not a pocket square but white linen or cotton handkerchief that you can wear in your pants pocket you can use it to rub some dirt maybe to clean up a spill or help out if there is no napkin available.

04:44 The fourth extended item is a writing instrument or a pen I usually have one on hand because sometimes you need to sign cheques or maybe give your signature.

05:12 The fifth extended item is a briefcase or a messenger bag. Traditionally gentleman would wear an attache case or a briefcase, modern gentlemen are more likely to have a messenger bag whatever it works for you.

05:35 Popular EDC's

Some men like to carry a pocket knife with them. They use them indoors and outdoors for all kinds of tasks.

If you're a smoker, you definitely want to carry a lighter but even if you're not, it may come in handy depending on what your everyday tasks and uses are.

If you live in a colder climate having a lip balm in your everyday carry is a wise idea because it helps you to prevent cracks in your lips, so you always look well-groomed and dapper.

If you're prone to getting your clothes stained, maybe having a little tide stick or a liquid stain remover is a great idea because it simply helps you to protect you from stains.

In case you're big into cigars, a cigar cutter may be a good idea just in case you walk past the tobacconist and you want that cigar right now.

If you're more of a handyman, a multi-tool such as the Leatherman may come in handy.
