Those who don’t identify as a fella also welcome to answer!

I’m getting tired of my wallet and I’m hoping to get some new ideas. Current EDC is my phone, wallet, and keys on a lanyard. Whatchu got?

Edit: I ought to be a little more specific with my EDC, since most people are kindly taking the time to do so.

Phone: Pixel 8 Pro Wallet: bulky leather wallet, I don’t even remember the brand, I’ve had it so long. Keys: a stylized lanyard with various house keys, car key fob, and a keychain that reads “I hope your day is as good as my butt” from my wife. I have to keep that, you understand.

Misc: Burt’s Bees chapstick, Listerine breath strips, and occasionally a utility knife depending on my destination.

      For me, it’s neat to know what other people carry. We’re all different people with different stuff and things, and it’s fun to learn about people I reckon. Totally get what you mean though, it’s very mundane lol

      I’m always curious because I stopped carrying a purse as it made me feel more femme than I like, and since then I’ve wondered how dudes get through the day with only their pockets.

        Either we stuff way too many things in our pockets, or we too have some kind of bag. I don’t think I ever go out of my place without my backpack if I have to bring more than my key/wallet/phone combo.

        We sometimes also opt for irresponsibly not carrying what we need to get through the day.

      It is a bit extra, but I got put on to a lot of different practical utilities such as YubiKeys this way.
      I also found the life-hack of adding nail-clippers to my carkeyring. It’s definitely obsessive to an extent tho.
      Fortune favors the prepared!

      Imo: just getting new ideas for ways to reduce/consolidate the number of things I have to carry every day. I switched from a regular wallet to an ultralight wallet (Ridge, but there are much cheaper alternatives) and it has been helping out my back a lot. It’s also nice to get recommendations for multi-tools and stuff.

      I only everyday carry my phone, car keys, apt keys, and wallet, and I often leave my apt keys locked in my car so I have one fewer thing to carry.
