Winter 2024 EDC Update! New Knife, New Hat & Returning Classics

[@madamecampsalot6384]

That's a sharp looking hat! The band is gorgeous. And I love suuspenders; they do the job and look good.

[@simplemanduke7128]

Always look forward to your videos James. You've got a good recipe for presentation and execution. We've seen you grown more comfortable in front of the camera. Your Kung is getting STRONG!!

[@raymonkent5835]

Suspenders ! Great idea for keeping your pants up while carrying.

[@SubUrbanNinja-EDC]

As always an envious EDC. Love it. All I can think of is maybe: Compass, mirror, emergency space blanket (I hear the desert can get very cold at night), and maybe a monocular for spotting things long distance? And maybe just for fun...a slingshot with ball bearings incase you want to hunt small game without making a lot of noise. :-)

[@SOS_ADVENTURES]

Lots of good stuff! I know you enjoy making short films, and after seeing those suspenders and old west pics, I’m thinking you should shoot a western.

[@gregorymccullough3801]

Looks like you've got it together. The only thing I thought was missing was a ground pad or tarp. I live in Alaska and our ground is always cold and wet.

[@josephbenton3471]

I've been wearing suspenders for over 25 years James. I had a hernia operation in 98 and that's where they became a must have for me. Plus I can't stand pulling my pants up every 2 minutes either. They look good on you though and I were them with a belt also. I've been wearing the Carhartt and Dickies suspenders for decades, but I'll have to look in to those Redheads.

[@ronald-d7u]

I'm an old lawman and have worn braces as we call them in the West for decades and still do with a belt. Yes my EDC demands some extra support. Your load out is good for your area up north it is a mite different but all good. Have a Merry Christmas.

[@terrym1065]

Merry Christmas James, Cuervo and families. As I've said before, EDC is subjective depending on many things. Your EDC is a good fit for you or anybody venturing out in the wild for a short time. EDC for most people though is a cell phone and car keys, little do they know. Nice film as always, well done, thanks.

[@danholmblad9925]

Real life information. That's why I watch you God bless.

[@Konstantine_marine]

I enjoyed looking at your gear very much. Gave me some ideas thankyou.

[@johnstrelow2533]

14:00 have you tried the Grayl water filters? What about the new carry cases for them? They have a fanny pack and a sling one similar to this water bottle Keith

[@grendelflyy]

Hell yeah. I always look forward to your edc’s

[@hollowbuilt]

I keep thinking that James has too many ways to make fire. Then I think how cold I have been in the outdoors…..good thinking James!

[@billmoody9736]

Belt and Suspenders - Ya can't never be too careful😁

[@Diebulfrog79]

Happy holidays, kids: from an old school uncle- poncho liner, space blanket tarp, a bunch of hand warmers for the sleeping bags, 2 quart pot. A tin can stove or charcoal starter. I let you guys think about the uses in the Winter 🥶. I’m recovering from a hospital procedure. Merry Christmas and do a short 🎄🎄🎄

[@BackatTheRanchSTX]

Great EDC Update Video. I am over due for one myself, it’s been over a year and a half since I made an EDC video update myself. I just realized that we carry the same or similar scissors. Keep up the great work.

[@michaellee6167]

Very good EDC video...always good ínfo and really good on how you get your information across to everyone...thanks and God Bless..

[@madtownangler]

You should do a video sometime about what you keep in your truck for emergencies My mother drove an hour to work everyday. The winters can get pretty cold and icy. So my dad made sure she had a bunch of winter stuff in the back seat rather than the trunk of her car. She always had a really nice sleeping bag and made sure she had a half tank of gas at all times.

[@garylinton3374]

Your right hat is it I'm in Arizona hat is everything ❤

[@marcusshumway4946]

Love the suspenders, I been wearing the same with a belt. Mostly as you age you start to loose your butt and I hate hiking them up. Great video

[@six10creative]

Excellent EDC brother! That Ruger is a classic!

[@olhiker9951]

Suspenders and belt 👍🏼

[@tammypeters6020]

Functionality is key. ❤

[@rickwhitson2804]

James I really like that knife. Sweet

[@santossalinas4221]

That hat is nice.

[@stayconnectedoc]

Such Fashionistas! I am now at the age where I have no butt to hold up my pants, going to get some suspenders for sure. New Kool...

[@jimnordquist995]

That is a nice hat!

[@simplemanduke7128]

Haters gonna hate on suspenders with belts. I made the jump 5 years ago. I'll never go back. And no one has my chonies or man peach since, my crew thanks me regularly.

[@jrhaskins76]

Great video James a little bit different than us up north

[@cocovasquez1]

Love the EDC vids!! 🤘🏼💪🏼👏🏼

[@robertmaes7141]

Good job James !!!

[@mfavia620]

Cool looking brim and background. Thanks for sharing and ATB Mike from Chicago

[@perfectweather]

I love that knife ❤

[@brianbaldwin3700]

Many ways to start a fire. Smart man.

[@randymartin5521]

Depending on the forecast, you might want to add gloves, a wool watch cap and/or a scarf. I can't stand jackets and coats with hoods attached, they're usually bulky and just get in the way, so I chose to carry a scarf and a wool watch cap.

[@JeffreyCotle]

James beautiful knives. . God bless😊

[@robertauld2242]

Hey James I also use suspenders especially if I’m carrying. Mine don’t snap on my pants: mine are made by Perry Products and they have plastic hooks made to hook over a tough leather belt. Mine work great with my Crossbreed Holster leather belt.

[@mtnbound2764]

good stuff!

[@davepickett2232]

Good Video!! Keep the suspenders!! Merry Christmas!!

[@GoodPhotos]

I had stopped carrying my Leatherman Wave once I got into Swiss Army Knives, but I really missed having pilers. I tried a Gerber Dime and it’s cute (much like your squirt) the pliers aren’t that robust. I find the SOG PowerPint to be the perfect compromise.

[@jameshuggins4300]

I mostly wear overalls when im not at work but.... if im wearing pants it's belt and suspenders!. I need something to hold my pants up😂😂😂. Great to hear that your hand is getting better. 👍

[@madtownangler]

Those rechargeable coats are nice. I started using one while deer hunting. It uses rechargeable drill batteries i cant remember what brand (the red tools) I have been using it while nightfishing in the fall Right now most of the smaller and shallower lakes are covered in ice around here and we just had a little 1/4" of snow last night. It was close to zero degrees last week and its been about thirty for the high this week

[@JeffreyCotle]

James ain't nothing wrong with suspenders. Keeps your pants up. Who cares what it looks like. What works is what matters. My ruger super Blackhawk hunter 44mag is alot of weight. I carry in a chest holster. 😊

[@garylinton3374]

Love your show u are awesome 👍😎

[@jaimeleondelaparra3877]

For sure a first-aid kit would be wise in the ole haversack. I would even throw in a tourniquet with some heavy bleed gauze when packing a firearm. Nonetheless, a legit EDC loadout.

[@santossalinas4221]

Suspenders are a great idea especially for people like us that carry alot of gear in our pockets and on our belts.

[@JO-rk5gu]

Also great for people that have the syndrome 'noassatall' 😊

[@santossalinas4221]

[@oxxnarrdflame8865]

Always carry water, not just to drink but to flush eyes or clean a wound. I always carry on my person two flashlights and two knives. I’ve carried a pocket knife and handkerchief/bandana since grade school. The handkerchief after once in school I sneezed, snot everywhere and very embarrassing. My dad always said “a gentleman always carries a handkerchief” sound advice.

[@kenlew4945]

You're not the only one on YT content creater that wears suspenders. Other YT channels that I watch who also wears suspenders are Buckin' Billy Ray Smith and Essential Craftsman that I do know of.

[@FredFreiberger-pk6wc]

I wear suspenders also

[@JeffreyCotle]

Remember when cold wool. Nothing better especially when off grid.

[@denofearthundertheeverlast5138]

What did you use inside the Onewind Cape tarp as a floor? I just loaded that shelter into my cart on amazon, thats exactly what I've been looking for too. Thanks!

[@JeffreyCotle]

Hi James. Awsome video. .from Pennsylvania buddy Jeff. Hats are very important. I love my outback wiskey hat. I always wear wide brimed hats. Keeps the weather off. God bless merry Christmas 😊😊

[@762nation6]

Aren't all scissors 1 handed .. lol .. love the edc keep up the great videos

[@maryistulsafox]

How much water can that bad carry?

[@cliffordbaldwin9157]

I want to know where you get them lighters

[@JunkyardFox]

@@cliffordbaldwin9157 check the description box

[@jamesmiddleton6464]

Maybe I missed them but gloves? Especially in winter.

[@MichiganSilverBack]

Oh no bro.. suspenders ok, but you need some nice leather ones!

[@markwilkerson-dz8pe]

it's called growing up I'm 58 yrs old same thing James no worries people worrying about that fashion are not outdoors men they may die while looking good but we'd say what a dip shit you need a leatherman micra scissor based mini tool with a bunch more tools one of the first mini tools they put out and still do I remember a very young man in elspao with about 500 subscribed I stopped because I was born in elspao been hanging out sents as always great video James happy holiday love your scissors might go fined one

[@michaelgamino4685]

I’m so upset with myself right now that I never even considered putting a pocket clip on my chapstick 😮 Game changer 🤯

[@maryistulsafox]

Every, old, guy I know😂. No butts😅

[@wlphantom]

No watch?

[@LisaTurner-d1b]

What ? You live here in El Chuco too

[@brandong2040]

From a practical perspective, I don't understand the hate for a belt and suspenders together.

[@jamesmcgee2447]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@True-Tails]

👍🍻

[@madtownangler]

I wear my keys clipped to my belt so i cant rip them off by accident and my wallet is on a chain. I flew on a plane a few weeks ago and it was wierd having my wallet in a fanny pack. Couldnt wait to get back home.

[@kevola5739]

Over time, your lifestyle and personal taste will determine the look that is you. Fashionistas do nothing but spend all their time in front of a mirror. Whether you look like a stormtrooper or a conquistador, it is due to the life decisions you have made. It is a reflection of the evolution of your life.

[@johnbensonism]

Never trust a man that wears both a belt and suspenders.

[@JunkyardFox]

You’d be a damned fool to trust James Harris regardless of wear 😂

[@johnbensonism]

How can you trust someone who can’t trust his own pants. ~Frank once upon a time In The west

[@madtownangler]

I had to wear suspenders with sweat pants for a few months last year so you dont look funny yet. Couldnt wait until i first put on pants and a belt. Took me six months before i could tie my shoes though

[@robman247]

You should have a boo-boo kit for real at least a small basic one or make one like I did a small one 🩹 and don’t for get disinfectant man that saved me once and a burn 🔥 ointment packet found some online Walmart those came in handy 😂😂😂😂 like gotcho 👍👌✌️🫡🇺🇸
