  • Eh, not quite like that. I have a pocket organizer that's similar, and a passport sling that I use when I can't carry my phone in my pocket and want room for a few extras.

    Can't say that this particular design would work for me, but I tend to dislike weight from my neck. Cross body that partially hangs from the neck is okay, lighter things are okay, and I can usually cope with something for short spans. But this is something you'd carry all day, and none of the carry options would really work out for me.

    Myself, I favor pocket carry for the kind of things pictured there, with a smaller organizer for one pocket. Anything else is in my big bag. The size of this one to accommodate the phone makes it bigger than what I settled on for my pocket organizer.

    The benefit of this kind of carry though, comes in when you're going to have to leave your stuff somewhere temporarily. Like, if you're in and out of a place that's restricted, it's nice to be able to shove this kind of thing in a locker or your dash pocket rather than emptying your pockets every time. I ran into that post COVID at the town offices. I was having to meet with the sheriff a few times a week, and didn't feel right bypassing the rules just because of the situation. That's why I got a pocket organizer. I could just pull it and leave the knives in the car along with my kubotan, pocket my keys, and not have to fuck around.

    I got over that eventually though lol. When I go there now, I don't even bother stashing my 45 in the car safe. I just go in the side entrance where the deputies know me and head in.

  • Aside from my phone and wallet, I only carry my keychain. Each goes in a separate pocket.

    I do keep two small tools on my keychain:

    • A small, bladeless multitool. Can take on flights. Looks like this particular one is no longer being manufactured, but there are a number of vendors that make a variety of tiny keychain multitools. Just a bit over 1 3/4" long.
    • A tiny folding knife, which IIRC is a Spyderco Bug that I got on sale. Slightly smaller than the multitool. I remove it if flying.

    Doesn't really require much storage space.

  • I have a small pouch, just one compartment, that fits in my back pocket. I keep any relevant cards (ID, credit cards, etc) in there as well as the things I like to have on a daily basis like my earplugs (because noise sensitivity is a fucker), mini multi tool, lighter, my meds, fidgets, and whatnot.

    On days when I have more stuff I want to bring, I have a Lunchbox backpack that’s actually a really great size for day to day stuff but isn’t a massive backpack

  • I have this pouch just branded with olight though, use it to keep my multitool and bits, pen, knife and change in the glove box of my truck.
