The goal of a survival kit is simplicity with maximum effectiveness while combining only the necessities in a light weight form. A survival kit merely as an example in that every gentlemen should be equipped with a couple items to assist him to thrive in any situation, with in reason, that life may snowball at him. By no means does anyone want to see one walking around with pockets jiggling with change and bulging with every little necessity one needs. I suppose the world needs these people but don't be one of them.
Above are the few things I never leave my apartment without. The items in the picture should not be foreign to most but it is how one does it and the detail put into them.
1. iPhone 3G - A clean, simple look, reliable with no sliding keyboards or moving parts.
2. Lodis - A thin, smaller wallet that will not take up to much space and perfectly nest one's credit cards, i.d., and misc. cash.
3. Jack Black - If you want to use them correctly get this lip balm.
4. Parker - A vintage pen I like to carry around. Never trust a phone or a Bic pen with teeth marks for taking down a number. Resort to a durable pen and a cocktail napkin if handy. It is old fashioned, classic and reliable.
5. Hotel Chantelle - Matches of the last lounge I visited.
6. Struhrling - A Swiss watch should be on every gentlemens' wrist. Spare us from the digital calculator watches.
7. Apartment Keys - No park benches please.
Warning: These items are tailored to urban living. Not recommended for a rural survival kit.
