Great info! It's funny how much of the same gear we share in common. 1. Flipbelt: I use the Nathan VaporKrar Waist Pack with soft flask (use for mid distance runs and perfect for phone, gels, and flask). Same concept as flipbelt. 2. I have the same Nathan handheld...perfect fit, I agree! 3. Road ID...I need to make this happen. GREAT IDEA! 4. Surviveware...I will check this out. Great item to keep in my vehicle. 5. Roller: I use a similar item for rolling, but with no foam cover. 6. Dry Bag: I just bought the same exact dry bags for my race in January (mine are orange). QUALITY BAGS and great price if your looking for drop bags! 7. Bins: I use 2 totes with lids for my jeep that measure 24"x18"x7...everything is ready to go! 8. Gators: I have never used gators before...research time. 9. Headlamp: I use the PETZL - REACTIK+ Headlamp, 300 Lumens. Love this thing! 10. Running Vest: I use the Salomon ADV Skin 12 Set (just bought last month) and this thing is a game changer. Fits like a glove and more storage than I could ever use. Worth the price! Thanks for sharing information...this is how we learn and grow as runners.
Wow, that’s awesome! Thanks for commenting on each item! You are right, sharing information is how we grow as runners. I’m excited to check out some of the items you mentioned, thanks!!! Have a great day!
@@RyanClaytonFilms I just ordered the Road ID...This is important for all the early morning runs and trail runs out in the middle of nowhere. Thanks for the advice!!!
Question for both you and Ryan... Do you ever get sore at the base of the bottles, from the pressure/light bouncing? On one hand, I know I need to HTFU. On the other, ow. 3/4 hours stuff here.
Hey Ryan. It's great that you are encouraging the use of cheaper options as so many folk don't. In my experience, some cheaper stuff can outlast the expensive! I have a Flip Belt and yeah it's really useful; think I paid about £35 here in UK so quite pricey for what it is. I also use a Salomon Agile 250 belt which will store a 250ml soft flask (probs would stretch to a 500ml), my phone and a lightweight waterproof jacket, in my case an Inov8 Ultra Shell as it'll pack/roll down really small. Must get some crates for my car too!
Best piece of kit.... your RoadID. Haven’t carried one as have details in phone, but that’s no good if phone dies. I’m definitely getting one & can also add organ donor “yes”.
The flip belt is the unsung hero of running gear. That little thing can hold your keys, phone and like a thousand calories, fits like a glove, and doesn't ride up or bounce around.
I have the same Nathan handheld bottle - love it. I used the soft Nathan EXO flasks for awhile but they leak pretty bad. I'm a big believer in RoadID, too!
I watch a lot of gear videos and yes over time it is all the same and some obvious, but once in awhile one recommendation is unique and sometimes overlooked Such is your #3recommendation for a road ID. I bike to work, Mountain bike at times, trail run and even my delivery job I can be out in rural back-country areas. The road ID makes sense. Something that I will definitely add to my Gear/EDC Thanks for the share recommendation!
Great video Ryan & some awesome gear ideas. Im a gaiter convert too! My Dirty Girls are brilliant and work with my Altras. Definitely going to look at some of your items though especially RoadID
@@alexdtucker thanks and yes, took Ryan's advice and got me a RoadID. I feel much better having something that identifies me when solo running and even working away from home.

Hey Ryan, great video. I like that green drop bag, what size is it? I think I'm going to pick up the crate, the gaiters and flip belt. Awesome recommendations.
Thanks! I just recently got an Aputure 120d, so that is my main light. Then I have a small LED with a blue gel over my shoulder. The lamp in the frame is almost dimmed all the way down. That's it! Thanks for asking. I checked out your channel, cool stuff man, excited to watch more. Take care!
Thanks for stopping by! Let me know if you use any of this stuff or if you heard something new today!! 👍
This was a different kind of essentials list, and I appreciated that! I agree that the RoadID is a must.
Thanks! And yes it is, definitely helps with peace of mind!

I don’t, the soft flasks solve that problem form me. Is that what you use or do you use hard bottles?

Awesome, you have a good setup!!
Great selections, especially the wipes. A simple addition but really comes in handy during our hot/humid summer runs.
Totally! They are kinda awkward to talk about, people instantly think of baby wipes haha, but they are great!
Best piece of kit.... your RoadID. Haven’t carried one as have details in phone, but that’s no good if phone dies. I’m definitely getting one & can also add organ donor “yes”.
Yeah, I love having it, I wear it on every run/ride/openwater swim! I even wear it when I'm traveling, just in case!
The flip belt is the unsung hero of running gear. That little thing can hold your keys, phone and like a thousand calories, fits like a glove, and doesn't ride up or bounce around.
I couldn't agree more, it is so useful!! Thanks!
I use a Nathan VaporKrar WaistPak. It is basicly a fancy flip belt and comes with a 0.5 l soft flask.
Cool!! I’ll check that out!
Enjoyed the vid. Thank you for the reaffirmation that I need to add some gear crates to my trunk.
Sweet!! Glad you liked it, and thanks for letting me know!!!
Very true, nick. My trunk is a total mess.
I have the same Nathan handheld bottle - love it. I used the soft Nathan EXO flasks for awhile but they leak pretty bad. I'm a big believer in RoadID, too!
Cool!! Those bottles are great, and the road id is so important to wear for sure. Thanks!
Nice delivery, sincere and genuine!
Thank you so much!!

Thanks for letting me know! That’s awesome!
Thanks for the video Ryan! This is exactly the kind of video I needed as I look to increase my trail running frequency this year.
That's awesome, thanks for letting me know!! Good luck!
Really great review on commonly used items. Thanks
Thank you so much!!
Super helpful Ryan! Thank you. I'm still building up my gear and this is great!
That’s great!! I’m glad it was helpful! Good luck as you progress!!
This is an awesome video. I've watched top gear videos before and this is a little different. Very practical. You got yourself a new subscriber. :)
Wow, thank you so much!!!
Pleasant personality :) .
My favourite on the list has to be the flip belt though. The box is a great idea hmm :)
Thank you!! Yeah I really like the flip belt, don’t even really notice it’s there and can cram a lot of stuff in it
Great video Ryan & some awesome gear ideas. Im a gaiter convert too! My Dirty Girls are brilliant and work with my Altras. Definitely going to look at some of your items though especially RoadID
Awesome!!
I agree! I'd recommend the RoadID too, paul. It's a little load off the mind.
@@alexdtucker thanks and yes, took Ryan's advice and got me a RoadID. I feel much better having something that identifies me when solo running and even working away from home.
Nice!!
@@DartmoorPaul I totally agree, it's just a little peace of mind.
Anti chafe balm, gps watch, earbuds, running hats, sunglasses, solar Block and a raincoat
All great additions! 👏
You're a good dude! Thanks for your videos and your trail gear recommendations and reviews!
Thanks for the kind words! 👍👍
Flipbelt definitely. I always run with mine.
Awesome! Me too!
I really appreciate your video. Great reviews. Happy New Year.

Already do!
Ryan Clayton yayyyyyyyy 🌸
What's your opinion on running with a camelbak?
I think it's great, on really long and hot runs I will put a bladder pack on my back and drink with the tube to make it easier and help keep cool.
Nice video Ryan. Some interesting bits of gear 👍🏃♂️
Thank you!!
Hey Ryan, great video. I like that green drop bag, what size is it? I think I'm going to pick up the crate, the gaiters and flip belt. Awesome recommendations.
Awesome, if you use the links it should go right to them all, the bag is the 20 L size. Thanks for letting me know!
It certainly did. Lol
loved the list!
Thanks! Hopefully it helps some people!
Epic lighting and vibe! I would love to hear about your lighting setup in a reply to this comment or a video!
Thanks! I just recently got an Aputure 120d, so that is my main light. Then I have a small LED with a blue gel over my shoulder. The lamp in the frame is almost dimmed all the way down. That's it! Thanks for asking. I checked out your channel, cool stuff man, excited to watch more. Take care!
@@RyanClaytonFilms Thanks :)
