Tailoring your EDC (everyday carry) for each situation doesn’t have to be complicated. It also doesn’t have to be overboard. The truth is, that what you carry to work probably isn’t practical to carry while at school, to the gym, and definitely not while running. To touch on the latter, running, I don’t claim to […]
