15 Must-Have EDC Travel Essentials

[@yikes4192]

500$ watch 140$ wallet 80$ tripod? some of these things don't scream EDC to me, just overpriced luxury items...

[@anthonygadd295]

Plus they’re always the same products. Always. It’s like an advert for the brands.

[@anthonygadd295]

Plus, the info is wrong. Bellroy Lite range is ripstop POLYESTER, not nylon.

[@AndyNick211]

$500 is very cheap for a watch. Nowhere near “luxury” lol

[@boogeyman423]

​@@AndyNick211are you hearing yourself? A decent quality watch that will last is 30$, anything above that is considered luxury.

I have the EDC27. Love it to death, but sometimes the proximity detector glitches out and turns on randomly, reducing the brightness unwarranted. Not sure why.

[@giortaro]

I was once, one of these edc enthusiast. Bought every thing that's labelled "best edc/ must have edc items" etc and throughout all of the time, i realise i never used most of the edc stuffs apparently. Hence i resort to just a simple sling bag and bring my wallet phone power bank earbuds and keys and a notebook (surprisingly i uses a notebook a lot) so yeah, for most of the people these are usually the items they carry around, they don't need to have all of these stuffs but hey, we all have that phase so i understand.

Yea I realise these kinds of videos are just telling us to buy more things that we don't need.

[@no.9516]

production value aside, Absolute zero thought went into this list.

[@Shawn-fw6uf]

Why u say that

[@no.9516]

@@Shawn-fw6uf they just make lists for the sake of content creation. The gear is rarely used or actually considered. It is just for a thoughtless aesthetic and it is often the same brands so this entity is starting to approach influencer status. Many of the things in this one didn't even make sense.

[@ColeSchultz-i3h]

@@no.9516yep, I have been having to skip through so many of these recently. It’s definitely NPC thinking in a lot of these videos.

[@cellar-door]

guaranteed that people who actually buy these don't actually go outside

[@SethLigo]

ah yes, a $500 watch but no way to plug anything into a wall in another country. The multicharger cable is a great backup, and the a6 water bottle has proven convenient when I'm work-traveling. everything else on this list is unnecessary or overkill, and I've got dozens of countries and years abroad under my belt. This is just deadweight.

They really seem high quality I am definitely going go snag one

Glorified Bellroy ad lol

For this guy, EDC means Every Day Commissions.

[@samuelromano4116]

Amazing idea to put the water bottle in the same compartment as the laptop!!!🤣

[@Tomijee]

Casio GW-M5610U or GW-5000U is still best EDC travel watch. Mechanical watch is nice, but true edc title goes to g-shock.

[@kamuda1982]

Almost everything imho is overpriced . The James Brand The Halifax 50$ ????? Really ? ? 50 bucks? Wallet 150 ? Almost if not Every KZbinr whos doing berloy as EDC is sponsored . Sorry but its not EDC. Way overpriced luxury. Nothing else. To much sponsorships. Come down to the earth. $900 or more EDC?

[@PunkieDudie]

I never thought I would want a water bottle so bad, but here I am. Looking to get one. *checks price* holy... never mind. I'll wait for a Black Friday sale...

[@justglenc]

Seiko 5 Sports SSK001 for the win, under rated watch, best value for money for the type and price range. Of course, a $15 heavy duty Casio W800H also works for EDC 😄

[@patrickphanthanusorn8803]

Love that you put the price right next to the item names. It's the small things that bring so much joy. Great display of content. I'm looking to grab that flashlight. Love the slim design of it.

21:21 "Tech changes fast. Case in point, the iPhone 15 featuring a usb-c port upgraded from the standard lightning cable" I don't think that tech changed that fast. It took them 5+ years since usb-c became standard on other devices.

[@granttaylor8179]

You mean 9 years. My old Lumia 950 from 2015 was USB-C.

[@AngadAnand1]

Garbage suggestion imo

[@helij9365]

What happens if I don’t have these “MUST HAVE ESSENTIALS”? Am I less of a person? Do I have less value as an edc’r? Stop foistering the consumerism.

[@zoamel8066]

I NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY EDC CHANNELS ALWAYS HAVE FIELD NOTES…WHO THE FUCK IS OUT HERE ALWAYS WRITING NOTES. I’VE NEVER SEEN A SINGLE HUMAN USE FIELD NOTES IN MY LIFE WHY ARE THEY IN EVERY EDC LOADOUT. I’ve never once thought i cant leave the house without my tiny notebook

[@ArkansasPublicHunts]

Do NOT put your prescription pills in that pill organizer for travel. You must have your prescription bottles with you. You will absolutely get arrested if you do this.

[@bigoodis]

God damn, don’t you guys have manicure salons in the country? You can’t make the “aesthetically beautiful vids” having hands like that. It costs nothing to make them look ok

[@TheJobtate]

Every one of these EDC videos that doesnt include a cheap pair of Mechanix Gloves is made by an uniformed content creator who lives in an astroterf world. End of story.

[@JohnnyRando705]

jfc $100 pen?! Ill just EDC 10 $10 bills and pay someone to find me a pen. After 5 years I bet im still ahead.

[@andreaswahlberg100]

EDC is nothing more than jewelry for the modern male.

[@wayneiam6419]

That case is no good without individual covers. I can see TSA opening that upside down and spilling your pills before a trip.

[@JohnDoe-s1v]

i would argue the new arcfeld pro from olight would be better for multiple reasons wireless charging for convenience and the fact its the same price as the nightcore. and they found a way to add a powerful laser pointer and a really powerful uv light and a 1300 lumin flashlight in a smaller compact size than the nightcore. sure you can argue proprietary cable but they sell a adapter that can fit on a keychain or necklace and can wear as a pendant that requires a standard usb c cable you would be carrying anyway to charge your devices. for only $15 additional. and then you can use the cable it comes with as a nightstand cable and flail your arm around at night and it will figure out where the strong magnetic charging cable is and auto connect. much easier than trying to find a flap of plastic or rubber at night and finding the cord and plugging it into the hole with accuracy. and you may make the arguement that nightcore has a 3,000 lumin but they dont tell you its a turbo mode and auto shuts off to prevent overheating so its more of a i need to blind someone tactic more so than i need 3,000 lumins so unless you work security or need a flashlight that can blind someone in a form of self defence which is a laughable excuse to own a flashlight the olighht arkfeld turbo would be more than enough plus it melts into your pocket since its flat and you don't even notice its there until you need it. plus it has a hat clip and a regular clip built in 1 and the nightcore can't do that.

[@aidanwarren915]

I don't know if you can change it post mortem but some of the section tags are misnamed.

[@Hiconsumption]

Good catch! Just updated, but it will take KZbin some time to register. Thanks again 🙏

[@Eirikr83]

Bellroy is the same generic backpack from Vietnam just more expensive

[@hm-henriquematias]

Finally an EDC without crazy pocket knifes, I saw tons of EDC with knifes with guys who clearly don't leave own neighborhood

Memo A6 Water Bottle could be improved to a complete rectangular design instead of the top cap design!

[@oal2928]

most of this is really bad I must say, besides the notebook maybe

[@EllTorn]

a almost impossible to properly clean water bottle, genius.

[@Guapodcast]

Water bottle looks cool but dificult to clean.

[@bob_the_bomb4508]

Maybe just keeping water in it will help, plus bicarbonate of soda will clean it.

[@anthonygadd295]

Info incorrect on even the first product. It’s polyester, not nylon.

[@tomswan3401]

The travel essentials for the modern hobo.^^

[@bingefreak1]

I'm a Fenix guy myself but that nightcore looks pretty sweet

[@zino0007]

Sling lite have a second pocket inside the mane compartment. On the left side.

[@literallypioneer3768]

in 3month experience, I think the lite ready pack is quite small for men. I'm not a big guy but when I wear the backpack it seems like I wear wife's backpack. People say Bellroy's bags overrated. Some of the points I agree with that. But there are no alternatives so far. I hope many bag companies would make experimental and challenging bags more in the future.

[@jmssun]

14:32 taekwondo/Karate hand?

[@jonuiuc]

I owned a that lite sling 7L, I think you are better off with the smaller one, the strap width is a smidge thin for the weight you can accumulate if you are going to take advantage of the internal volume. 4L size is a better match for the more lightweight build. I also own the venture sling 6L and despite the name it actually fits slightly more internally and the more robust structure and wider straps are better suited for the weight of things you can fit in that size. I also got the boundary rennen ripstop after looking at the lite venturefor a packable backpack, similar material and weight but I liked the wider shoulder straps on the rennen. I'll have to look up the sony earbuds and the nitecore flashlight you show here.

[@davidmarshall6409]

I have the 7l and think it’s the perfect size.

[@james_wheelz]

love that yall recommended a pill container cuz now i found a much better solution then junk i find at cvs (which make good for storing my pills at home but not durable enough for travel)

[@jmssun]

19:12 how can a bottle shaped like this be properly cleaned

[@nexus_force]

As a German citizen and owner of the Belroy Travel Wallet, I can confirm that the German passport fits without any problem, too

Thumbs down for strobbing me without a warning.

[@RealSorak]

What is the brand of the cylinder water bottle that is matte black in the beginning of the video? The one that comes out of the bell Roy backpack?

[@yunusalih]

21:35 looks like someone messed up the orientation of the cable positions, magnets should face each other in order to hold it shut.

[@dashdigital5869]

very cool stuff. the seiko watch, sony earbuds, and that tripod are probably my favorite from this list. do you know if the tripod works on android phones?

[@timhuber2814]

It isn’t directly compatible with Android models, but Peak Design sells a universal adaptor for it (which is compatible with all its Slimlink system gear). They also make a fantastic phone case for a variety of smartphones and all of said cases are compatible with the tripod (and their handlebar mount and the rest of their Slimlink kit)

[@algauthier]

Men’s accessories? Why would you gender your video? Why you would exclude more than half the population? Why would you assume women don’t want these things? There is absolutely nothing that is relates to gender in your video. Please be more inclusive and not so stupidly discriminatory.

[@trimorth5996]

this isn't discrimination lmao, it's called marketing. stop being so soft, a title is stopping no women from watching this video and buying anything they want.

[@algauthier]

Who said it was discrimination? Why is being soft something I should avoid doing? Why don’t think that women will not be put off by that? It’s a choice of presentation, not marketing. That doesn’t make it a good choice. You may still have different views, but that doesn’t make my comments invalid. There is no value in excluding anyone, to the detriment of KZbin income and income for the companies represented. It’s also not soft to point out when someone has a different view on something, It’s strong, and if it were soft, it’s nice to be soft too.

[@Mike965x]

Not everything is discriminatory, just because you don’t like it. The title is “Must have EDC Travel Essentials”. Where does that say “men’s”? I’ll wait.

[@timhuber2814]

HIC is a men’s lifestyle publication. It describes itself as such on its site. As such it does clothing and gear guides that are for men. Sometimes those guides are for non-gender-specific product spaces like the one here. That doesn’t change that it’s a piece being produced by a men’s lifestyle space for its target audience.
