Hey, first post here. I used to carry my main edc on my belt, and my secondary in my pockets/iwb. That got bulky, and it was a chore to transfer everything to a new set of pants so I made ankle holsters.They are very discreet, and are suprisingly comfortable.
I can carry under dress pants easily, I would never get away with this stuff in my pockets.
On my belt.
Leatherman surge in Rae gear sheath.
Leather guard with magnets inside to stop leatherman and flashlight from banging against each other.
Thrunite tc15
2 reusable zipties and key in belt.
In my pockets.
Unihertz Jelly Star.
Samsung galaxy buds 2.
Niteize multicard and diamond sharpener card. (The guts of my wallet)
Right ankle.
Bic lighter.
Nitecore Tiki.
C-C usb with A and micro adaptors.
Leatherman bit adaptor.
15 ft of 80lb twine in melted straw capsule.
Various jigsaw blades for my leatherman.
Lockpicks
Not wearing in pictures.
Quick deploy paracord anklet with about 20ft paracord.
Ironman triathlon.
Left ankle.
Buck nobleman.
Delrin locker with spare 18650.
Disposable gloves.
Elastics.
Earplugs.
Bandaids.
Smaller earbud tips.
If you see any areas where I am lacking, please let me know. I use everything here.
I made the leather gear. If you think of anything that I could add that would be helpful like another pouch, let me know. 🙂
I appologize for my unsightly ankles. 😂

That seems like it would be terribly uncomfortable and annoying.
This is amazing.
Props for ingenuity, OP.
I can barely stand it when my socks bunch around my ankles, I can’t imagine my irritation if I tried to wear these.
A couple questions:
1. Why the zippers if they’re also laced (as I think I see here)?
2. How do you deal with sweat accumulation and the inevitable stank that develops?
3. Is the material against your skin elastic? If not, has slipping/shifting been an issue?
*Tell me EDC has jumped the shark without telling me EDC has jumped the shark.*
Winter boots are an issue with these, that’s unfortunate.
I thought it was cool to hide things in my ankles when I was young, but now that I look at this picture, I don’t think I was wrong. It’s amazing that you made that pouch yourself. I’d love to have that one too lol
Whats that black strip in the belt?
I love it!
This is… Fuckin Kool!
Definitely get MacGyver points for the creation but man some of you people are way more dedicated that I am to carrying too much stuff everywhere.
Thanks i hate it
Higher chance of losing your stuff because of the increased motion at your ankles compared to your waist.
Sweat dripping down your legs all over your stuff.
You look like you’re on double house arrest.
What’s not to love?
Some people will do anything to avoid using a pack or satchel.
Idk how I feel about the twin ankle pouches maybe just one, but that’s just my opinion if they’re functional then do as you please
This is why I love this stupid app. Fuckin amazing dude
This is the most stupid thing Ive seen and I love it. This inspires me with the bicep pouch 2.0 for a summer. Something like the joggers do with their phones
I feel like r/edc is in its seventh season, the writers are tired, and we’ve just been introduced to Ankle Wallets—our precocious adopted child character that is a Hail Mary last hope to revitalize the show in a mad attempt to get to season 8. But alas, no matter how endearing little Ankle Wallets is, it won’t be enough to get r/edc across that finish line.
I’ll see you guys in syndication where we’ll just be happy to relive the classics for a little while each day.
That is, until the 2027 reboot of r/edc that will introduce a whole host of rough and ready characters for the new dystopia! Syphoning socks! Rangefinder sunglasses! 22 Long Rifle Bandolero Underwearo! All available on Temu!
