best everyday carry items in shades of black

This hand-picked collection of everyday carry items are here to improve your life starting now. All of these items come in an array of colors but the pieces featured here today all come in various shades of black. I’ve chosen this color scheme today because they all fit so seamlessly with your other existing daily gear. You can buy the full collection or pick and choose your favorites by following any of the product links below!

First up today is the Lightwell Field Watch MKII from Centric Instruments. This is a perfect watch for everyday wear. You can dress this watch up or down depending on the occasion but it’s a perfect wristwatch for when you want to switch things up. It runs on a Japanese-made Seiko quartz movement that is powered by light and the case is made from surgical-grade 316L stainless steel. The dial on this watch has been coated with Superluminova BGW9 for full visibility in low light conditions. It’s also water-resistant up to 100 meters.

Below that watch, we are looking at the SeaVees Huntington Middie shoes. They have a soft suede upper that’s comfortable from the moment you slip them on using the rear pull tab. The SeaVees signature herringbone rubber outsole gives you all-day comfort and the custom perforated footbed gives you extra cushion under your feet. These are perfect all-day-every-day shoes.

The Lisboa Porto Shirt in Charcoal Windowpane is made in Portugal from a super comfortable 100% cotton. This lightweight flannel gives you the optimal amount of warmth and breathability you want in a 4-season shirt. It is designed to look great tucked or untucked, whichever you prefer.

Here we have the Lululemon ABC Pants which have become my favorite pants of the past year. I have these in Black and Navy and what’s great is they can be worn on the golf course, working out, or the classic five-pocket style with lululemon’s Warpstreme™ fabric gives off the look of a normal pair of chinos so you can wear these to the office or when traveling. They are breathable, moisture-wicking, reinforced at the seams, and they have a 4-way stretch to make them the most comfortable pants you’ll wear in 2020.

Next up, we check out a unique everyday carry pocket knife from Deejo Knives which features a dope custom blade tattoo. These are some of the most customizable knives on the planet, they are super light, and ideal for everyday carry. They allow you to pick a unique ‘tattoo’ to make the knife your own as well as choosing the blade and handle features.

I’m loving the Billykirk No. 297 Standard Issue Backpack that is built with 7 oz Martexin waxed sailcloth. This ensures the backpack is extremely weather/water-resistant and abrasion-resistant. This backpack is handcrafted in Pennsylvania, has an interior 15″ laptop sleeve, countless pockets throughout, and robust brass hardware.

The Ridge Aluminum Wallet + Money Clip is a favorite of everyday carry enthusiasts worldwide. This expandable wallet will hold between 1-12 cards, only weighs 2oz, is RFID-blocking, and has an integrated money clip that you can use to hold cash or clip onto your pocket.

The The Mehlville by The James Brand is a dual-compartment carabiner that’s perfect as an EDC keychain. It is machined from a solid block of aluminum and the anodized finish ensures it won’t break down and corrode like cheaper options. It also has a notch for opening bottles!

We round it out today with the Nomad Horween Leather AirPods Case. These vegetable-tanned Horween leather sleeve for your AirPods has a gorgeous leather patina that only looks better with time. Don’t get me wrong, this AirPods charging case looks great straight out of the box but it ages to perfection.

Last up is The Notetaker by Bellroy, a ballpoint-tipped pen for smooth writing. This pen is sold with a black ink refill and it features durable ceramic anodized aluminum construction.
