Beginners Beware: Overhyped EDC Gear ⚠️

In today’s video, we’re talking about the most overrated EDC gear and concepts that everyone buys — but few people actually need. From overbuilt tactical gear to titanium everything, I’m breaking down the gear that looks cool on Instagram but doesn’t really add much value in everyday life.

If you’ve ever wondered what EDC gear is actually worth carrying — and what’s just hype — this one’s for you.

We’ll cover knives, multitools, flashlights, and even mindset traps that can waste money or add bulk to your pockets. This isn’t a “hate” list — it’s a real-world take from someone who carries gear every single day.

Whether you’re new to EDC or refining your setup, understanding what’s overrated helps you build a carry that’s lighter, more useful, and more you.
