how people actually use their kits
There isn’t one correct way to use a kit.
That’s kind of the point.
Once people have one, it usually just… finds its place.
Here are some of the ways we see kits actually getting used.
parties, kickbacks, random hangs
This is the classic one.
Someone pulls it out, everything’s there, and suddenly you’re the most prepared person in the room. Not in a try-hard way just in a “wait, how did you do that so fast?” way.
Being able to roll clean, perfect joints wherever you are is a low key party trick. People notice. You don’t have to announce it. It just happens.
park days
Thrown into a tote, backpack, or purse and forgotten about until it’s needed.
Park hangs, picnics, sitting on a blanket, people watching. No scrambling. No borrowing. No “wait, does anyone have…?”
You don’t have to set anything up.
You already did that at home.
hikes and outdoorsy days
This one surprises people, but it makes a lot of sense especially in Seattle.
The PNW has a huge hiking and outdoors community and a lot of people like having something contained and discreet that doesn’t require thinking mid-trail or at the end of a long walk.
The kit stays shut.
Everything stays clean.
Nothing gets lost in the dirt.
It’s there when you want it. Invisible when you don’t.
living in a purse or bag full-time
For some people, the kit just becomes part of their bag.
It moves between places without being repacked. Work, weekends, errands, nights out. Same setup every time.
You stop thinking about it entirely which is honestly the best use case.
at home, always ready
Not everyone takes it everywhere.
Some people keep their kit at home, on a table or shelf, so everything’s always together and easy to grab when needed.
No drawers.
No scattered pieces.
No resetting the setup every time.
travel, trips, and “just in case”
A lot of kits end up coming along on trips without much thought.
They’re easy to toss in a bag, easy to find later, and don’t require re-deciding what to bring every time you pack.
It’s one less thing to plan around.
customized… or left exactly as is
Some people open the kit and immediately make it their own.
Others never change a thing.
Both are normal.
Some kits get personal fast.
Some kits stay exactly how they came.
There’s no wrong version.
what this usually means
Most people don’t buy a kit because they want more stuff.
They buy it because they want things to feel easier.
Less scrambling.
Less thinking.
Less “wait, where did I put that?”
The kit just slides into life wherever it fits and that’s different for everyone.
If you’re wondering what it’s “for,” the answer is usually simple:
It’s for whatever you want it to be.
