Wallets

I am happy with my Secrid cardslide.

Collection - Secrid

It can be noisy when there is a single coin in there rattling but with contact less cards + payments with smartphones apps I don't use a lot of cash nowadays. I usually put the coins in my pocket when I need/have some.

Here's my Saddleback. As pictured it's holding 5 plastic cards and 12 paper cards.

Thomas, those looks great and "unwanted wireless communication" sounds way less conspiracy theorist than anti-RFID

I don't know how long I've had my Saddleback, but it's still going strong with no durability issues. Maybe 8 or 9 years now? Heard about them here on vSalon, have given several as gifts and everyone (who wants a small slim wallet) loves them.

I've got this one :: Leather Wallet | Men's Bifold | Saddleback Leather

@davids I have the Bellroy and it's real good. It was me who recommended the Saddleback several ages ago. I carried that for a few years however it never compacted. The darn things are made so well and durable that they defy wear!

Bellroy are overpriced yet they deliver a high quality product so you won't regret spending too much. ouch.

Thanks guys.

The smaller the better, but only up to a point. I'm not Strongin for God's sake.

That Saddleback looks nice Dustin. But I like the metrosexualness of the Bellroys, and will probably pop for one of their Hide-and-Seeks, along with a key-holder and a laptop case.

I had one. It was decent enough for a bifold. Nice and soft, though it did show signs of wear after a bit. Then I moved to the fairly minimalist Slimmy wallet:

Slimmy OG Slim Wallet - 3-Pocket (73mm) - Black - RFID EDC – bolstr(R) - Pocket Research

I loved it...until I decided to try going even more minimalist. Enter the Flowfold:

Minimalist - Card Holder Wallet - Flowfold

$15 bucks, holds everything I actually need, and mine shows hardly any signs of wear after roughly 2 years.

you have stellar tastes in wallets.

I got this Tumi, and am pretty happy with its compact efficiency after a week of use.

I didn't think I'd be happy folding my cash, but it's no biggie. Excuse the pun.

I upgraded my Flowfold Minimalist to the RFID blocking version. $19 instead of $15. Still tiny and perfect as ever.

[dashDustin]

well....i'm now the owner of a Flowfold, a Holtz, and a Tanner.

You could make a wallet turducken with that combo.

i've had a shell cordovan fold wallet for several years - very hard to beat in terms of compactness and durability.

Leffot in NYC is a great shop to deal with. link = The Fold – Small

You all should check out PIONEER | Premium technical wallets built to last a lifetime. I'm done with leather wallets forever.

Pro Tip: No matter how cool they look, and how sweet you think it would be to have a bulletproof ass - avoid the carbon fiber wallet.

I learned my lesson (and my membership card into the slow learners club) after it ate 3 pairs of jeans over a few months.
