This is what I typically carry in my pockets most days. I have a fuller load out in a sling bag that I take depending on the day’s activities, usually if I’ll be out and about with the dogs.

I wish it was more normal for men to carry bags/ purses or fanny packs etc all the time. Both casually and professionally.
Man purse IS how I execute my EDC. It's great to have a bag that I (generally) always know has my wallet, keys, and things that I need for going out, as well as more circumstantial stuff like gum, cleaning wipes, and an umbrella. I got a $20 one on Amazon that was fine, but eventually replaced it with a much nicer bag from 5.11 Tactical. I have gotten some judgment about it, but most people either don't care or also think it's cool. I may have made a few converts even?
Anyway. Man purse. Highly recommend. Never going back.
I bought a really nice EDC bag from alpakagear. Well made and doesn’t break the bank. A few of my coworkers will likely become customers shortly too.
