I’ve used this wallet for a couple years now and really like it. Searched for about a week and settled on this one. Well I mine is Napa Walli brand and I purchased it from Amazon. Now when I search it came up with this:

Wallet looks exactly the same.

I backed this on Kickstarter and love it. Carries 6 cards in the actual trigger mechanism and another 2 or 1 plus some cash in the outside. A true minimalist design. On sale now for up to 50% off and free overnight shipping. I just bought a second one.

While not nearly as streamlined as a rubber band on a few cards, I have been using a vaultskin RFID front pocket wallet for several years now, I'm happy with it:

Do the cards inside the trigger part have to be hard plastic cards? I have a few cards that are paper, would those get stuck inside?

I've been using a SlimClip in the front pocket for probably 15 years now.

Do they? I looked at a few links and saw no mention of RIFD blocking.


I just picked up a YouTube channel called walletopia. They guy makes an interesting argument that RFID protection is now just a marketing gimmick because less than 1% of cards use the vulnerable technology. That coupled with the cost of the equipment to sniff out the cards makes it unlikely that a sophisticated thief will spend time being in one location to get a 1% hit. The guy said cards have moved on to more secure contactless technology.

If so, I'll agree wholeheartedly.
Yes, I have a few more but planned on gifting them to nephews over the next 10-20 years.

This is definitely the best looking of the leather options.




"I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989

I have had a ridge wallet for years now - you can have one with both the elastic and the clip both - I just ordered the clip separate and added to the one with the strap - its done great holding a bit of just in case cash in the clip and I use the strap to hold folded receipts (except CVS... ) till I get home

Got one for my wife last year as well and she loves hers

I'm a fan of the Big skinny card holder.
https://www.bigskinny.net/wallet-card-cases.html

Thin leather case, doesn't fold, holding up strong after 3+ Yrs.

Very happy with it!

Flowfold. Made of carbon-fiber sailboat sail material. Very tough and very thin.

I bought the Ekster wallet over christmas but, as I said before, I came across Walletopia on YouTube and have been watching his videos.

I decided I'm going to get this wallet come January. It's handmade and owned by an active duty sailor. He has other models but this one fits the bill for me.

I've been using a Magpul DAKA Essential since 2012 or thereabouts, when it finally started to fray I bit the bullet, spent another $20 and bought another one. I can hold 6 cards and 1-2 folded bills. Anything more and you are going to stretch it.

Been carrying a Tumi nylon and leather one for about 3 years and while it's still serviceable the leather around the clip worn through a year ago.

The Mrs. got me a Kings Loot one for Christmas, it is a little bigger since it is a bi-fold design but still fits in my jeans front pocket.

Supposedly RFID resistant and carries a lifetime warranty.

A bit too complicated compared to my Tumi but the leather is nice...if a bit thin.

Mine just came in and yes it does work with paper cards if they are sandwiched in between hard plastic cards.

Hey guys. Sorry for reviving this one. But do any of you have Bellroy wallets? Are they as good as they say? Want to buy a new one.

You can check out the leather wallets from Von Baer. They're crafted with full-grain leather. It's best to get a full-grain one because it develops a nice patina, which makes it nicer over time. You will spend a bit more, but it can last you decades.

Yikes!
I've been using the Allett for over a decade and they do the trick.
Very thin and durable.
But in recent years the price for them and the others like them have gone up a lot.
My recollection is they were $20ish and now it's more like $50.

Just peel off a couple of those cards and get a small sturdy money clip?

I've got (rummages in pocket) a clip I've carried 10 years that has 3 cards, one license and 4 $20s. I have a wallet in my backpack that goes most everywhere that has a couple other cards plus insurance, a couple $100 and usually 3-5 more $20. I tend to use cash very seldom so this works great and I can travel light. I don't need all that other crap very often either.
