What is Milspec and Minimal all about?
Milspec and Minimal is a blog focused on everyday carry (EDC) — specifically, gear that actually works. No hype, no gimmicks, just real-world tools and essentials for real people across all walks of life.
Who is this blog for?
Anyone who values practicality, preparedness, and efficiency. Whether you’re military, law enforcement, a nurse, lawyer, project manager, CEO, pilot, mechanic, or engineer — everyone’s EDC is different, and this blog respects that. If you carry with purpose, you’re in the right place.
What kind of content can I expect?
- Honest gear reviews — no BS, no fluff
- EDC loadout ideas for different lifestyles and professions
- Tools and tech features that focus on function over flash
- Mindset pieces on readiness, minimalism, and real-world utility
- Field-tested insights — not theory, just gear in use
Do you get paid to review gear?
No. Reviews are independent and honest. If that ever changes, it’ll be clearly stated. The goal is credibility, not clicks.
Why “Milspec and Minimal”?
The name reflects the mindset: military-grade durability and minimalist practicality. Gear should be functional, reliable, and streamlined — not just cool-looking.
How often is new content posted?
New posts are published regularly — typically weekly. Sometimes more, sometimes less, depending on gear worth covering. Quality over quantity.
Can I suggest gear to be reviewed?
Yes. Got gear you swear by or something you’re curious about? Reach out through the contact page — suggestions are always welcome.
Are you on social media?
Not yet. For now, this blog is strictly written content — focused on quality writing, not chasing algorithms. That may change down the line.
Can I support the blog?
The best way to support is by reading, sharing posts, and joining the conversation. Down the road, there may be merch or other ways to support — stay tuned.
