field kit

Gear for outdoors

A field kit is a portable collection of tools, supplies, or equipment assembled for use away from a home base or laboratory.

Scientists carry field kits for collecting specimens, medics carry them for treating injuries, and soldiers carry them for equipment maintenance.

The contents vary by profession, but the organizing principle is the same: everything needed to work in the field, packed for transport.
