Going Prepared

Motorcycling creates an everyday carry context unlike almost any other. Riders are exposed to the environment in ways that car drivers are not, separated from their gear by a layer of riding equipment rather than an enclosed vehicle, and operating in conditions where a mechanical issue or roadside stop requires self-sufficiency that a car driver can often defer to a phone call.

Most everyday carry guides treat daily life and outdoor life as separate contexts requiring separate gear. The reality for a significant portion of the EDC-minded population is different.

Car camping sits in a category that gets less attention than backpacking in most outdoor gear discussions, which is strange given how many people do it and how much room there is to do it well.

Going Gear carries more than 3,000 knives from the most respected manufacturers in the industry, spanning everyday carry folders, tactical fixed blades, hunting knives, high-end collectibles, and everything in between.
