Found this EDC pouch on cheap online Chinese dollarstore site Temu. Anyone use this or something simila? How do you carry your core EDC items "fashionably"? As someone that doesn't always have pocket space, I ordered and can't wait to get it!

Here's where I found it https://share.temu.com/8IilwA6TlnA

Isn't the concept of EDC at its most barebones just "here are the things I keep with me every day?"

I don't see how that's cringe.

That's how it started but now people go out of their way to have the most mall ninja edc setup, trying to one up each other with weirdo items and obsess over knives and all sorts of things. A lot of the posts you see on reddit you need like 5 pockets to old all the shit because they are so try hard that's when it crossed over to cringe. Even this post here like you need a little man purse to hold your edc because it's gotten so vast.

I'm a woman, but I resent this. Men should be able to carry bags if they so choose and I demand pockets because I hate carrying purses. This does not strike me as neck beardy even remotely.

man purse

That's just called a "purse"

I disagree. I put an organiser like this inside my nornal backpack so all the little bits don't become a soup of unfindable things.

Stuff like ibuprofen, plasters, hand sanitiser, a pen etc.

I know what you mean about the mall ninja stuff though.
