    Never leave home without one. I’m always amazed others don’t do it as well.

    I carry a 5.11 Rush 72. Uually there’s:

    • a camera; Fuji X-S20
    • contact lens cleaner and storage
    • small bicycle pump
    • 2 sunglasses (Oakley M2 & Ray-Ban Wayfarer)
    • sunscreen during summer
    • floppy boonie hat during summer
    • one/two pocket knives
    • a single watch storage case, usually with a watch in it
    • a strip of blood pressure medication
    • two powdered ibuprofen painkillers
    • a bandaid or two
    • a pen

    And there’s bound to be something like a roll of candy, a snack, a water bottle, etc in it at any given time.

      I love those Wayfarers. I have a pair of Foldies (knock off brand that fold into a sort of little cube) in light blue. Polarized sunglasses are the best!

        They are excellent; very comfortable and always in fashion for those who care. My particular ones are non-polarized.

        The Oakleys I have ARE polarized, and for a lot of situations it’s really handy for sure. Great at cutting annoying reflections on water, allows you to see through glass with reflections, etc.
