Studies show that blue is consistently the most popular favorite color on the planet. Consequently, you can find everyday carry gear finished in all kinds of different shades of the hue, from baby blue to teal to navy and everything in between. With its particularly rich and deep tone, we’ve grown quite fond of the increasingly-popular Aegean blue that’s been popping up more and more in the EDC space. So, we scoured the market to round up some of our favorite pieces of kit that sport this distinctive finish in this week’s everyday carry loadout: Aegean.
Article Overview
Victorinox I.N.O.X. Automatic Blue Dial Blue Rubber Strap Watch Set
Engineered and manufactured in the brand’s own factory in Switzerland, the I.N.O.X. Automatic from Victorinox employs the same uncompromising precision and quality that’s been imbued into its Swiss Army Knives for well over a century. Presented here in a blue dial with a matching blue rubber strap with a tool-free quick-release function, the premium watch also boasts ISO-certified shock and water resistance (200m) inside of a lightweight 41mm carbon composite case. For this release, Victorinox has bundled the timepiece with a limited-edition Swiss Army Knife with matching blue scales and blacked-out steel tools. Alongside making for an extraordinary gift for any adventurer or everyday carry enthusiast, this completely Swiss-made bundled set makes for an exceptional option to kickstart your EDC and build the rest of your daily carry around.
Pioneer Molecule Cardholder
Crafted from 3XD — a super rugged proprietary 3-ply nylon with a DWR coating — the Pioneer Molecule Cardholder is a masterclass in everyday carry minimalism, consisting of a small 4.25″ x 2.8″ x 0.16″ form that features card slots front and rear sandwiching a cash slot that can house folded bills. I’ve personally carried this wallet for over half a decade and despite having tested dozens of other wallets, have no intentions of removing the Molecule Cardholder from my everyday carry.
Fisher Bullet Space Pen Cerakote Elite
With a solid construction, a sleek form, and the ability to write upside down, underwater, or even in space — hence the name — the Fisher Space Pen has long been heralded as one of the best affordable EDC pens in existence. This particular 400 Series Space Pen steps things up with its standard brass construction being fortified in a matte navy blue Cerakote before being paired with a matte black-finished clip — a color scheme that perfectly matches the above watch and SAK set.
Olight Seeker 4 Pro
The Olight Seeker 4 Pro is a true pocketable powerhouse of an everyday carry torch, with a hardwearing anodized IPX8-rated aluminum body, a TIR optic lens, five brightness modes plus a strobe setting, a more-than-850-foot throw, and a whopping 4,600 lumens on tap. Sure, at 5.24” in length it pushes the boundaries for what’s acceptable for EDC, but if you’ve got the spare pocket real estate or a sling or backpack to haul it in, we’d highly recommend this fourth-generation Pro-spec Olight torch for practically anyone.
