Minimalist Everyday Carry + What's In My Bag (Men's Edition)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2024
- EDC - everyday carry. Frankly, our honest EDC wouldn't be much fun to look at. Having been working from home for several years, we don't actually have to carry anything on a daily basis. That said, this is what (and how) Glo carries, on days where we head out for some sunshine.

*Unfortunately, the Orbitkey Clip V2 broke after about 3 years of use. While it worked very well for 3 years, the way it broke was kind of concerning for my use case, since the Clip is often used hanging on the outside and not inside a pocket or bag. YMMV.

What's your everyday (or not-so-everyday) carry?
Also, let us know: who would like to see a ladies' edition of "What's In My Bag"??
For me (ladies): A fanny pack that includes my phone (go android!), cardholder with cards, hand sanitizer, hand wipes, a pen, and a small pouch with a few small items such as lip gloss. Also my keys which I throw in my pants/jacket pocket or the fanny pack depending on situation.
Ladies edition...how to pack and travel light!
Yes yes! Ladies' edition of "Whats In My Bag" pleaseee 😍🤗🙏
I pretty much just carrie my phone with id, and car keys. And occasionally hand sanitizer, though most shops and places you go to always have handsainters or soap anyway. (Women).. Unless I'm at uni, then it usually more than just that.
Ladies edition 🌟
Nice to see someone not carrying an IPhone. And I like the basic watches as well.
Hey thanks! 🙌
I'm always so excited for a video from you guys!
Thank you!
This was interesting. I've never seen a men's what's in my bag! I'm going to go check out those key organisers now. They look much better than my standard old keyring. Thanks :)
Thanks! 🙌
Yes, the key organisers are pretty nice if you don't like jangling keys :)
My everyday carry is not minimalistic, but it is handy.
Front right pocket: Phone, cardholder wallet, and earbuds in the little jeans pocket.
Front left pocket: Keys + mini Swiss Army knife, pen, and an A6 sized pocket notebook.
Back right pocket: A mini first aid kit.
Watch: Casio F91W.
Love this video. You are an inspiration.
Great video as usual!! Always love how your videos reiterate the idea of being minimalist and sustainable even amidst all the crazy sales :') I would be really interested in a video about sustainable shopping in Singapore (clothes, groceries etc) if you guys ever do one! :)
Glad you enjoyed the video :) and thanks for the suggestion! It's an interesting topic, we'll add it to our list of ideas 🙌
Glad to see an honest urban EDC. And you were also honest about WAH (work at home). 👍🏻
My urban edc fits inside a Zpacks wallet or passport pouch (ultralight Dyneema Composite Fabric), which fits inside a jean or shorts pocket. But usually carry the pouch inside a sling (COB X POD or Aer city sling V2).
This 👇🏻is what I carry, if that helps enhance your edc. And I am conscious of not increasing weight on my edc, so that I carry it daily, plus have the right tools/system, for my use case.
Jean/Shorts Pockets - Victorinox compact (switched the tooth pick for a fire steel from tortoise gear), RovyVon A8x flashlight (both multi tool & flashlight rides on pocket clips), Pepper gel with marker (instead of spray, so that I don’t have to judge wind direction), bandanna & nite ize nano steel carabiner on a pocket clip, housing key smart pro, mini cash can from sunshine & a victorinox midnite manager (midnite manager‘s 0/1 driver, compensates for the Philips capabilities missing in the compact).
Zpacks pouch - Hand / screen wipes, thin optics emergency reading glass or contacts, boo boo kit, anker 10,000 mAh small power bank, lever gear cable kit, fisher bullet space pen, 2”x3” (wallet size) rite in rain, 2 feet duct tape, small Bic lighter, nano super glue, micro cordage, pill stash, 2 small zip ties & nano Tide stick. 1 large zip tie (in the event, I need to help restrain an unruly character), & an Apple air tag goes into the sling too. The above takes care of most eventualities in an urban environment for me. I carry a seperate tech kit whilst traveling to work (includes a maxpedition barnacle pouch that can stand upright on the train tray’s small space) & a separate hiking kit, when I am in the woods. These kits are dead investments or write offs, meaning, I don’t shift items between kits. Only replenish them.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing!
I could relate with not liking to have stuff on your packets. I use a pouch i got from Mexico but I liked that you can fit your bottle in there. Thanks for the keys tip! This is my favorite channel 🙏🏼👍🏼
Thanks man! Really appreciate it 🙏🙌
I wld love to see a video abt thoughtworthy’s history (esp with regards to its inception, the cost and risks involved when starting out and how thoughtworthy came to be able to support both of you financially)
We'd love to do that, but it's a long story! We'll think about how we can structure the video (or videos). Thanks!
Great vid man! I don’t the phone wallet key thing too
Like you, work from home all week. I'm usually out each day. It's card wallet, keys, phone, pen, small notebook. (Not keen on watches - I have a Seiko 5 with a NATO strap if I'm hiking without my phone.). In the UK the climate means most of the year they can be carried in jacket pockets. In the few weeks of summer when it's uncomfortable, I wear a very light weight armless fishing vest.
I tend to just use pockets and I carry phone, mask, foldable tote bag, keys and wallet. I sometimes use a small back in summer when not wearing a coat but I am trying to only buy clothes with pockets going forward. Surprising harder than I thought it would be, especially when thrift shopping.
Nice choice,Casio is a fun watch to wear,and Seiko would last for lifetime
Great video! Really enjoy this type of content. I would love to see a minimalist daily routine for yourself or your partner on a work vs a relax day.
Thanks for the idea!
Yes me too would like to watch. Pleasess thx
I understood from your grip. You play with one hand backhand. Mad respect
You're right (it's not my most consistent stroke unfortunately)! Nice to see a fellow tennis fan here 🙌🏻🎾
I would love some insight into how you manage your money… do you operate a minimalist banking setup? 👀
Hmm that's interesting. We'll add that to our list of ideas. Thanks! 🙌
I hear you about the water bottle. Absolutely essential for me too because I guzzle water like a camel. Overall my quick EDC is almost the same as yours (even the sling bag looks similar) with the addition of a small moisturizer (for my eczema) and a tiny umbrella (because Singapore).
Thanks for sharing! 🙌🏻
:) because Singapore, yes, correct!
Thank you for your video, yes I would like to see the ladies edition of what is in My bag??
If you ever made a vlog I would love to watch that! To see how you live a work-life and/or weekend life from a minimalist POV (compared to most other Singaporeans). Great video btw, was really interesting as I've never seen a male's what's in my bag before!
Thanks for watching, and thanks for the suggestion! 🙌🏻
Very original idea 💡 😎👍
Showing your wallet, you say “cards”
I know you mean credit/cash cards
What a fun surprise to see playing cards ♦️
Thank you for this inspiring video 🪴
🤣👍
Thanks for the support!
I can recommend the Garmin Instict watch. Love the Orbitkey clip v2. Just ordered one. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏻
I use orbitkey key organizer as well. Love it ❤️
🙌🏻🙌🏻
LOL i do the “phone wallet keys” thing too except I also say “earpiece watch”
it's funny because i have the same orbitkey (black edition), same wallet (Herschel Charlie in black leather) and same headphones... however i leave the Fiil at home because i drop them sometimes, i prefer the oppo enco w51 that i find more stable in my ears and have noise reduction. Great video!
Great video! Thank you for sharing. I would like to see the ladies edition of “what’s in my bag”.
Thanks! Perhaps we'll work on the ladies' edition soon :)
wow, you have the same cell phone as me! it is somewhat discontinued, but very useful
Hi, I am a fan of EDC as well. The wallet I use is the bigskinny bi-fold. It function as a normal wallet but the best part is it uses very thin material hence it is still very slim & compact. As for the keys holder, I uses Keybar, Amercian made, very solid build. Same concept as the orbitkey but much easier to swing out the keys with 1 hand only.
I am sure you will like it 😁
Cool stuff, thanks for sharing! 🙌🏻
@@ThoughtworthyCo No problem. Keep on creating content.
Interesting enough!
Thanks!
Superb Video.
Thanks!
Seiko 5 FTW!!!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Nice video as always!💕 but how can you drink so much water in a day?😂 waiting for the ladies' edition!
😂 it's just a habit by now. The weather here is always hot, and we don't use the AC, so I'm constantly replenishing what I lose through perspiration!
The ladies' edition will come (sometime down the road)! 🙌
Absolutely love the brands you've got here, just wondering how you came to know of them? I'm not big on brands but the designs look fantastic and very durable. Are there other items you've used and enjoyed?
These days, when we want to purchase something, we'll do quite a bit of research and that's how we come across brands that we feel check the right boxes. We'll continue to recommend and make videos about new products or brands that we discover, in the future!
Great video
thanks!
I carry a Gerber mini knife. An add-on item to be part of your EDC.
I also pack an umbrella, at least 1 pack of tissues to consider my absolute essentials. Hand cream, lip balm and hand sanitisers are often found but I wouldn't say I have to have them everywhere I go.
Please do a version for your wife!!!
Well-prepared but still minimal! 👍
We'll make the wife's edition in the future 🙌
I like your style. I just subscribed.
Thanks!
I see that T40 speakers. Great choice.
Thanks!
Nice handbag, bro!
🙌
Nice
Loving the setup! I see your phone is running the Ubuntu OS. How's your experience been with that? I tried it 6 or 7 years ago but found it difficult and not very useful (most apps weren't that good). Is it better these days? Big Linux fan so would be nice to get back into it.
For me, I try to keep my EDC minimal but living in Taiwan I need a few things to help survive such as bug spray, itch ointment (MUJI), suncream, hand towel, and obviously phone, wallet, keys. I heard Singapore does a good job keeping it mosquito-free! Would love to visit one day.
Hey! The phone is actually running on Android with a launcher called Niagara Launcher. I like Linux too on desktops but I probably won't want to use it on mobile as there will be too many drawbacks 😅
@@ThoughtworthyCo Ohhh, I see. So it's still regular ol' Android with an Ubuntu looking theme. Have you tried any other none-Android/iOS OSs. I'm using /e/ just which is pretty good and I can use it for most of my needs. Like you say, there's drawbacks. Swings and roundabouts eh?
What's your current/fav distro? I was using Ubuntu for a while but more on Windows for Adobe Suite. The open-source versions just don't cut it tbh
very good
thanks!
Good
Kullanışlı 👍👍
Not an iphone user, i see youre man of culture..
Very realistic edc.. noice
😎🙌
A minimalist who doesn't use an Iphone, instant sub
🙌🏻🙏
Very nice video
Which launcher you are using on your phone
It's Niagara Launcher 🙌
Very good👍👍
Thanks!
Aww Glo carries water bottle!! High five!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Water is so important!! 🙌 🙌
Where did you get the strap for your seiko?
It's from Nomad Watch Works.
👏
Where did you get the t-shirt and the shorts that you were wearing in the video?
They're from Uniqlo
Correction : Phone, Wallet, Keys & Swiss Army knife. These are a Man's 4 EDC essentials.
At the very least you should be carrying a small 58mm keyring knife, mine is the 58mm Midnite Manager which besides the standard Victorinox miniature but essential tools adds a pressurized pen & a LED flashlight in its handles and this eliminates the need to pocket carry a separate pen & flashlight . Being a Man I also carry a 2nd Swiss Army knife of a larger size as part of my EDC, I rotate the 2nd knife according to my perceived needs on any particular day & my rotation includes such knives as the 93mm Pioneer X, the 93mm Farmer X, the 91mm Climber, the 91mm Huntsman & larger 111mm knives such as the Picknicker, Garant & Rucksack. For an evening dining out or socializing with friends I replace the larger multi-tool knife with an elegant Gentleman's knife such as the 93mm Swiss Army 1 or 2 or the 74mm Executive ( the famous MacGyver knife ). Swiss Army knives are not about carrying a deadly weapon ( the 911 Terrorists used $5 Boxcutters not Swiss Army knives ) it about having a small to medium useful tool in your pocket to deal with whatever little tasks life throws your way on any given day. Get a Swiss Army knife - Get a better Life!
I really thought your comment was satire at one point (still can't tell for sure, tbh, but I'll assume you're serious).
I get it, knives are useful (and cool). I have a couple of SAKs from my time in the army, and a couple more for utility. But in our city life I've never felt like I needed one with me, especially not when I'm just "out socializing with friends".
There's no such thing as "at the very least a MAN should be carrying _____" - maybe with the exception that EVERYBODY should be carrying an open mind. Some people go without a wallet, some people go keyless, whatever works. You do you, bro. Cheers
hi whats your bag brand, able carry daily?
Hi it's called the Daily backpack by the brand Able Carry. Check out this link: bit.ly/AbleCarryDailyBackpack
Links are also in the description :)
First time watching EDC video but with Android phone, finally 😭
Android ftw 🙌
@@ThoughtworthyCo all hail android 🙌🏼
I love the video! But you guys! The key organizer is 40$, that's insane
haha can't deny that they're expensive! 😬 we got them on sale at a retail store using gift cards that we had to spend anyway, but still thought twice before purchasing 😅
Could you link your phone's wallpaper?
I don't remember specifically where I got it, but you can google for "gradient wallpaper pack". I believe it's one of those first few results.
Where did you get the band for the Seiko?
It's from a brand called Nomad Watch Works
@@ThoughtworthyCo thanks
Çok güzel 👍👍👍👍
🙏
nice vid
Thanks! 🙌🏻
Niagara launcher! Good stuff. I'd except nothing less from a minimalist Android user lol
Yes lol it's so good. Such a simple yet efficient way to organise and navigate the homescreen 👍
Just my old Fenix5S and trusty Huawei Mate 20 Pro.
Gate, door, public transport, payment, ID etc. -> Thumb and Apps.
I won't be caught dead carrying man purse.
How bout the facemask where from
♥️❤️
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Hi.. love your content..
By the way what is that launcher on your phone?
Hey thanks. That's Niagara Launcher 👍
you know there's a song called phone wallet keys.
I only carry my xiaomi phone and mi band6 then commute hehe 🤘😆
Nice 👍 I haven't fully embraced the cashless and cardless lifestyle, yet 😅
@@ThoughtworthyCo whoa! Thank you for recognizing my comment hehe I'm a fan 😅
👍👍👍
No need for tissue?
Knit a beautiful
No need for tissue and umbrella?
They're not super essential to me :) And more than half the time when I'm out with the wife, she'll usually have them with her, so that works for me 😅
@@ThoughtworthyCo okay haha. I'm just wondering why you don't carry them cos I think those two are definitely essential for me. Especially tissue for choping. LOL
Alışılmışın dışında farklı ama güzell
🙌🏻
Interesting even though I'm a women😀
whats up with everyone carrying murses nowadays
I'm puzzled by the remark that because the earbuds' brand markets to the Chinese, the experience may not suit the non-Chinese. Er, sound is sound. If is not good, it is not good. You mean the Chinese hears music differently from other races?
But I do know that Chinese products suck. Perhaps that's it.
Er, the voice prompts are in Chinese.
Edit: its app is also in Chinese, etc.
minimalists don't need watches, sorry to gatekeep. that's a lot of clutter. watches are fashion these days, take it from a watchmaker who doesn't wear watches
That's a very weird and distorted perception. Everyone has different values, including minimalists. I'm actually considering a Galaxy Watch... purely for the health information ("fashion" *rolls eyes*). Guess I won't be a minimalist anymore cause that watch really makes or breaks it according to you.
If we really want to be strict about it, there are so many other things that we don't "need". I would suggest to not gatekeep a gate that, really, doesn't exist; it can get exhausting. Cheers 🍻
@@therealjenniferrr that's not a watch, thats a health device. i meant traditional automatic watches
@@Carftymk minimalism is about having things you really care and want. 🙄
Good
