Minimalist wallets are fashion aesthetics and have evolved to be EDC due to their sleek and sophisticated design which makes them simple yet functional.

A standard minimalist wallet like the Shuffle minimalist wallet can be comfortably paired with other EDC essentials to make a fully equipped EDC kit.

In this article, a guide on how to curate an ideal EDC kit is discussed.

Minimalist approach to EDC

Everyday Carry (EDC) involves the daily necessities in one’s life. These necessities are carefully selected and can be customised mostly based on personal preferences, needs and lifestyles. These necessities include a phone, wallet, knife, keychain, flashlight, power bank, pepper spray and even a watch. 

The minimalist approach to EDC incorporates simplicity and quality. This means that when going for an EDC, the most important things are considered rather than taking a bunch of things that might not likely be useful resulting in having loads on oneself. 

Elements of a Minimalist Wallet EDC Kit

For the curation of an ideal EDC minimalist wallet kit, some details should not be missed. These elements are:

Slim design

Minimalist wallets are built to be compact and sleek while having compartments for cards so whatever will be found in the wallet or attached to has to be of sleek design. This allows it to fit perfectly which will enable the wallet to still maintain its design size.

Integrated technology 

Minimalist wallets are originally designed with technological features like RFID blocking technology, Bluetooth tracking and other features that ensure the security of the essentials.

Key holder

This allows for one’s keys to be secured, organised and not all over the place. The keyholder can be attached to the body of the wallet or secured within the wallet. The keys can also be tracked. 

Multi-tool card

This includes tools like pocket knives, flashlights, bottle openers, and other useful tools that will surely be used during the day.

Phone accessories 

Accessories like phone stands, slim power banks, multi-tool phone cases or just the ordinary phone case can also be found in a minimalist wallet 

How to Build a Minimalist Wallet EDC Kit

Knowing the necessities needed for the day, putting together an EDC kit alongside one’s minimalist wallet should not be a hassle. Here is a guide on how the ideal kit can be built.

Wallet selection

Choose a sleek and compact minimalist wallet that fits your preferences, needs and unique style. The minimalist material should have solid, quality material to ensure durability and practicality. It could be leather, nylon, plastic, steel, aluminium or a combination of any. With a good minimalist wallet selection, pairing with other EDC essentials won’t be a problem.

Integrated Technology 

While choosing a minimalist wallet, ensure it has integrated features that ensures safety of content. Features like RFID-blocking technology, Bluetooth tracking or AirTag, Biometric verification, Voice activation or Smart cards (Dynamic CVV). These features will ensure and prevent unauthorised access or theft.

Multi-tool card 

The multi-tool card comprises practical tools that can come in handy in everyday activities. These tools include but are not limited to flashlights, penknives, bottle openers, pry bars, USB drives, tactical pens and pepper spray. The card can be tucked into the wallet but ensure it does not alter the size of the wallet by making it bulky.

Accessories organisation

Pick accessories that align with your needs and preferences. Accessories like phone cases, power banks, earphones, phone stands, notebooks, pens, and watches can be added to the minimalist wallet EDC kit as long as it is essential and would not make the wallet bulky.

Personal aesthetics 

The overall look of the minimalist wallet EDC kit can be customised to suit personal style and preferences. It could be customised by colour, or by material, that is, making it uniform or a combination of different colours, materials and designs.

Test and adjust

After curating the ideal minimalist wallet EDC kit, take it for a test run and analyse if it is functional for everyday running around. Regularly go through your EDC kit to ensure that there is a balance between simplicity and functionality. Make changes when necessary to ensure the sleekness of the minimalist wallet is not compromised.

Conclusion

When curating an EDC kit, it is good to consider durability, practicality and functionality in everyday life. 

Minimalist wallets are EDC and when paired with other essentials, their sleek and compact design should not be compromised and made to be bulky.
