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.

    Just go for it! I’m seeing it more and there’s no reason to carry a huge backpack when you only need space for a handful of things.

    I got a waxed canvas cross body sling bag that carries everything I need with some space to add on for one offs.

    In my bag is:

    • Waxed canvas tool roll with my late grandfathers Gerber multitool, Schafer Old Timer knife, knipex 125, sharpie, pens, field notebook and flashlight

    • Waxed canvas pouch with mini first aid kit (supplies for me and the dogs), vetwrap, usb wall adapter, multi type charging cord, and power bank

    • 32 oz. Nalgene with water

    • Collapsible dog bowl

    • dog poop bags and glasses cleaning cloth in the small pocket

    • clipped in different spots is a locking carabiner for leash hooking and used poop bag holder with clip

    I carry it less this time of year. It’s getting cooler and the dogs don’t need water in the winter weather like in the summer. Plus, I have most of the stuff I’d need from my bag in the cars winter kit and some winter specific stuff.
