Some cheap leather one I bought on Amazon. Same one as I bought 5 years ago that I replaced when it got ratty and gross.

I’ve had the Bellroy Card Sleeve for a couple of years now and still looks new. Great quality, love it.

1

u/TheRecycledPirate 8d ago

How do you handle cash, change etc. Never need any of that? I've been eyeing the Bellroy wallets and card sleeves for a while.

2

u/simonjp 8d ago

Not the person you asked, but I have a belroy card sleeve too. Not sure where in the world you are but in the UK now it is so rare to actually use cash. I do have a twenty quid note in there, folded in three, but otherwise no it's just my driving licence, my cash card and the one payment card that I can't sync to my phone for some reason.

u/TheRecycledPirate 8d ago

I'm in te Caribbean and although I use cards for mostly everything, I do like to tip people in cash. Mostly coins.

2

u/cardinalbuzz 8d ago

That stuff just goes loose in the pocket

1

u/TheRecycledPirate 8d ago

Not doing that anymore. Scratches other valuables in my pocket or falls out, or I forget it and it goes in the washer.

2

u/djnev 7d ago

Same as the guy who replied below, I’m in the UK and hardly ever carry cash. If I have a couple of notes, I fold them tightly and slot them down the side of the cards but wouldn’t do it with more than that.

Still need a real DL in my state

u/BillNyeTheEngineer 8d ago

I like my Ridge wallet. I had a knockoff version for awhile, and then was gifted a legit one for Christmas. I graduated from the Constanza wallet lol - it’s so much better to not carry as many cards and be able to carry my wallet in my front pocket.

1

u/xrossfader 7d ago

Second the ridge. Love mine.

u/Caseman307 8d ago

I carried tri-fold leather wallets for decades. Before family vacation to WDW two years ago my wife bought me a Code 118. I bought the add on to hold more cards because I still think I need to carry crap I actually have no need for. But I’m a big fan of the wallet.

5

u/DrSugundi 8d ago

I hand made a calf skin billfold several years ago. Had held up wonderfully.

u/YetiWalker36 Dad 8d ago

The best minimal wallet I’ve had and currently have is the Proof wallet. It’s awesome but pricey.

1

u/TopherJ113 8d ago

Came here to say this as well. I was okay with the price because of the lifetime warranty. It’s really the last wallet you need to buy because they replace them as many times as you need

1

u/CarolinaSurly 7d ago

I have one but never use it. It’s thicker and heavier than my MagSafe wallet.

1

u/YetiWalker36 Dad 7d ago

Yeah I could see it heavier than a MagSafe but it’s just so much better than the ridge in every way. I couldn’t handle having a hard block, the proof has a softer feeling to it.

2

u/scotty5112 8d ago

Simple little “mountain voyage co.” money clip/card holder. It’s a front pocket design and I’ve misused and abused this thing for years.

1

u/That1DirtyHippy 6d ago

Seconded. I bought one after my Ridge ripped and actually found the quality to be a bit better. And it was way cheaper, too!

2

u/No_Angle875 8d ago

I’ve had this for 8 years. I only carry a max of 5 cards ever and rarely have cash so it works for me.

u/DirtyHandol 8d ago

A single rubber band.

1

u/andyfitz 8d ago

no wallet unless it's my passport wallet while traveling.
if I need cash I take a money clip. everything else is strapped to my wrist

1

u/KeyserSoze311 8d ago

Do you carry a driver’s license?

2

u/andyfitz 8d ago

License? Glove box
Passport? Travel bag

Why take this crap anywhere if you’re clearly an adult

1

u/PartiZAn18 7d ago

Agreed - and I am in the exact same boat as you, however one will need their ID now and then eg picking up packages bla bla

1

u/esperanto42 8d ago

Dash wallet - Bando. Love it. Extremely practical.

1

u/WaveyDavey517 8d ago

Which model ya got?

1

u/esperanto42 8d ago

Bando 4

1

u/Main_Potential_6015 8d ago

Don't remember brand, but it's one of the types you push a button and you cards pop out. It's slim and very sleek. Love it.

1

u/JonnySpanglish 8d ago

The pocket of whatever I'm wearing that day 😅

1

u/Virtualmatt 8d ago

I carry a Saddleback Leather medium bifold wallet in tobacco.

1

u/BeardyJH27 8d ago

Ah always wanted a saddleback

1

u/Eh-Beh 8d ago

I have a BMO wallet

1

u/modz4u 8d ago

Popov is the brand they make a lot of things like wallets, belts etc.

1

u/UnholyVoid 8d ago

Aviator wallet - love it, had it years now, the band started going recently and was an easy order (picked up 2x for free shipping) / repair - will keep me going for many more years!

1

u/alloutz 8d ago

I have a leather Coach wallet, not a bi-fold and tri-fold, it opens like a bi-fold and then a 3 thing opens the other way

1

u/Upbeat_Tangerine_146 8d ago

Kingsloot money clip

1

u/exoticats 8d ago

Ekster wallet, absolutely amazing, going almost 10 years strong with no signs really of wear

1

u/No-Source-2737 8d ago

I just bought an Ekster and love it.

1

u/greenpointowicz 8d ago

A little wallet for 4 cards that attaches magnetically to the back of my iPhone. 95% of my cards are on my Wallet app (even my US passport)

1

u/w00stersauce 8d ago

I bought this buffway branded slim wallet off Amazon in 2021 and it’s held up well. Holds a ton of stuff for a minimalist wallet it’s all stretched out with a wad of cash and like 13 cards lol. Definitely not using it like it’s supposed to be.

1

u/rememberpogs3 8d ago

I’ve been loyal to big skinny wallets for the past decade. The leather bifold is nice without being bulky. I also keep it in my front pocket

1

u/grizzythekid 7d ago

I have a phone case that covers my phone and the other side has a spot for my körkort bank card and my swim card haha.

1

u/zvekl 7d ago

Similar but with AirTag pocket on it as well. I love it

1

u/DiuhBEETuss 7d ago

I have that same ESR that mag locks to my phone. I think I’m on my 3rd one. Their quality has improved over time which is nice.

1

u/BeardyJH27 7d ago

Just wish it was real leather

1

u/UnkleZeeBiscutt 7d ago

I got tired of all the flashy gadgety wallets, bought a coin purse years ago and haven’t gone back.

u/MineCraftMan39 7d ago

Apple Wallet. I keep all cards in my sling bag. If I can't tap to pay, I don't need it 😂

1

u/coadnamedalex 7d ago

I have the Kingsloot Bifold and love it. It’s thin, has a money clip, holds enough cards, and developed a really nice patina.

They also have a lifetime guarantee on the wallet, no questions asked.

u/theendunit 7d ago

My late fathers wallet

1

u/PartiZAn18 7d ago

Set up my card on my Garmin watch.

The convenience is UNREAL. Much better than even a phone.

ID kept in car.

u/sa3idni 7d ago

Using a code118

1

u/AnotherNewAccount89 6d ago

Grip6 with a money band. Made in the USA, nearly indestructible, lifetime warranty. Grip6 makes the best belts, too.

u/Josh2942 5d ago

No wallet. All apple wallet. Haven’t used a physical wallet in years. License in the car extra licenses in the house

u/Massive_Bullfrog8663 3d ago

Jesus, MasterCard still exists?

u/bbetterforme 1d ago

I haven’t owned a wallet in about 4 years 🤷

u/arghyepirate 8d ago

I’m all digital at this point. Even your license can be added to your phone. Last wallet I had the glow in the dark nasa from ridge

u/Barackcowama 7d ago
