Mythbuster Adam Savage Drops the EDC Two Bag (and It’s Just as Good as the EDC One)

Famed gear guru and former Mythbusters host Adam Savage is at it again, but not with blowing things up, per se. Instead, he’s exploding outward onto the manufacturing and merchandising portion of the EDC gear scene with another everyday carry bag. And this one he crafted with the consumer in mind – it’s smaller and cheaper, yet still retains the same tool bag aesthetic and utility as the EDC One.

The EDC One, made in partnership with San Francisco-based company Mafia Bags, was overwhelmingly well-received when it launched in November 2017. Constructed out of upcycled and salvaged sailcloth, this carry-all bag from Savage Industries featured everything a guy needed when storing and transporting their essentials easily from one job or location to the next.

Savage Industries’ EDC Two is still made in collaboration with Mafia Bags, still inspired by Neil Armstrong’s Apollo 12 McDivitt purse, and is still very much a durable tool bag, boasting the same virtually indestructible sewn recycled sailcloth as its predecessor.

Now available in white (so you can see your tools) and a sleek black, the EDC Two is also going to be an unlimited release, so you won’t have to worry about not being able to get your own. The bag is downsized into three pieces of fabric, weighs just over a single pound, and is even more versatile that its predecessor, featuring a pencil holder, web strap, and a wide spring steel supported clam-shell mouth.

Along with these bags, Savage Industries is also selling plans for both constructions, so you can go out and sew your own creation.

Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Everyday Carry Bag!

Sewing looks harder than it seams (we had to go there), but Savage Industries makes it easy for you. Besides, finishing a product with your own two hands is quite the accomplishment and sewing your own bag will save you money in the long run. It’s easy to see why Adam Savage hopped into the merchandising environment, being the craftsman that he is.

Now, you can head on over to adamsavage.com and pick this puppy up for just $145. Or maybe it’s time to get sewing on your own creations and start selling your favorite design of an improvised EDC bag someday.

Porsche, TAG Heuer team up for Carrera Chronograph honoring the 911, a timeless classic
A gorgeous timepiece in honor of a true classic
TAG Heuer Porsche watches on wheel

There are fewer sports cars as iconic and persistent as the Porsche 911. Performance has improved, and some features like natural aspiration and air cooling have gone the way of the dinosaurs -- but at its core (and in its styling), the 911 is pretty much the same rear engine beauty that Porsche unveiled back in September 1963. It is currently celebrating its 60th anniversary, as is a much-loved piece of chronography -- the TAG Heuer Carrera.

So it’s only fitting that TAG Heuer, an equally iconic Swiss watchmaker with strong racing links, has partnered up with Porsche to commemorate the German company’s flagship motor. The “Carrera Chronosprint x Porsche” is a beautiful chronograph and a fantastic bit of engineering. Its styling manages to cram in more references to the 911’s 60-year history than we can count without looking garish or overstated.
