Every year on May the 4th, the Star Wars community shows their love for the franchise with events, commemorations, and most importantly, merchandise. This pun on the series catchphrase “May the Force be with you” gives fans a chance to celebrate and geek out about their favorite movies, and for EDCers, that means showing off their favorite pieces of (mostly) practical Star Wars gear. Whether it’s as simple as a toy or a keychain to add a small bit of flair or a design integral to the entire loadout’s aesthetic, the Force is strong with these EDCs from our community. May the 4th be with you.
