Believe it or not, the holidays are right around the corner. That means there’s only a few weeks left to get your holiday shopping done. And if you still don’t know what to get for the person on your list who loves EDC gear, Dango has you covered. In this guide, you’ll find some of their best-selling everyday carry products, constructed with the rugged and precise design language Dango is known for.
Dango MC01 Titanium Money Clip
There’s a reason why the Dango MC01 keeps popping up on our recommendations: it’s compact, convenient and tough as nails. So if the person on your list isn’t a huge fan of credit cards or electronic payments and prefers to carry cash instead, the MC01 would make a great present. It features a two-part construction: a springy and strong titanium clip that allows it to securely hold 1-50 bills, and a 6061 aerospace-grade aluminum plate provides rigidity and structure without the weight. If they keep need even more storage, an additional silicone band can carry up to 10 cards or 30 extra bills. To make this money clip pocket friendly and multi-functional, the MC01 features an attachment point for keys or a lanyard as well as the ever useful bottle opener. It’s available in Champagne Gold, Satin Silver or Jet Black, so you can pick the one that better suits their style.
Dango Watches
Whether they spend their days at the office, at home or in the outdoors, they’re going to need a timepiece that can keep up with their needs. That’s why Dango designed a vast catalog of watches built with the same attention to detail and performance as the rest of their EDC offerings.
The Modular Watch series comes in three models, all built with different scenarios in mind: the Trek, the Dive and the Chrono. Despite this, they share the same rugged 45mm case made out of 316L stainless steel, protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
If they need a durable all-around watch that also can blend in the concrete jungle, the Trek is your best bet thanks to its military-inspired look and a Horween leather strap. If they need a wide range of time-keeping functions instead, the Chrono will have their back thanks to its three different subdials. And if their adventures often end up under (or around) water, the dive should be able to take care of that with its rotating bezel and 200M of water resistance.
If they spend more time in the city, one of Dango’s Everyday Watches series might be more suitable instead. Divided into three models as well, the Dapper, the R-SPEC and the Spec-Ops were designed with a specific lifestyle in mind, so there’s bound to be one that matches your giftee’s preferences.
True to its name, the Dapper features an elegant design, perfect for formal occasions. It features a minimalist face accompanied by an Italian Leather strap. If they like all things fast, the R-SPEC will definitely be more up their alley. It features a carbon fiber face complimented by a dial designed to look like a speedometer, with red accents all around. And if they need a timepiece that can keep up with even the toughest of missions, the tactical design of the Spec-Ops wil step up to the task. Matching the needs of first responders and law enforcement, the Spec-Ops features a design focused on high-legibility, supported by a tough as nails construction.
Dango EDC & Side Trays
Having a dedicated space to place your gear is a great way to keep it organized, safe and at the ready for the next outing. So if they’re the type to just empty their pockets wherever at the end of the day and seem to be in a rush to find their gear before heading out the next morning, you might want to gift them a Dango Tray. CNC-machined out of a solid piece of aluminum, these durable but lightweight trays have a slot for pretty much everything in their daily carry.
As the largest offering in the collection, the Dango EDC Trays stays true to its name, featuring four compartments in total to keep their essentials in place. Thanks to its built-in cable pass-through, the largest slot is perfect to hold their smartphone; it even features small cut-out in the corner to work as a stand for it. A narrower slot in the middle will be able to hold things like their watches, flashlights or knives. Finally, a smaller slot in the bottom right will be a perfect spot for a wallet while the smallest compartment could be great for loose change or a keychain thanks to its rounded edges.
Designed both as a more compact alternative and a handy companion to the EDC Tray, the Dango Side Tray is the way to go for when they don’t have enough table space or don’t have a larger load out. Unlike The EDC Tray, the Side Tray is composed out of only two compartments. The larger one features an L-shape, and is perfect for mid-to-bigger sized gear like a wallet, knife, flashlight or even a multitool. This larger compartment also features a cutout in one of its edges so you can charge your phone while it rests there. The smaller compartment can act as a suitable place for a keychain, loose change, pens, or compact gear in general.
No matter which one you go with, they both can be upgraded with DTEX anti-slip panels. These will help their gear stay where its supposed to be while protecting it from scratches and bumps.
