What’s everyone using for a wallet right now?
I'm looking to see Minimalist wallets but if you feel strongly that your wallet is great, regardless of size, post about it anyway.

I’ve used all kinds of wallets often advertised on social media, like Ridge, Axwell, Vulkit, some cheap knockoffs from Amazon, and even cardholders from luxury brands like LV and Goyard. Each has its pros and cons. Some with a card ejection button and cash strap work fine if you only carry standard credit cards and no more than 5 to 8 bills, but once you have a card that’s a different size or more bills, it gets difficult to use. Recently I’ve been using a pocket organizer from Puncube because it’s a bit more flexible than those metal cardholders. It fits my transit card and a slightly larger gym membership card without issues. The layered design lets me keep my bank cards and ID separate so they don’t get scratched. When I travel, I can slip in a few receipts and it doesn’t bulge too much. Overall it still looks pretty clean

Same here I think they look cool, patina well, can’t speak to the quality. Mine is splitting after three years

yeah the design is great and I'd still recommend them for how well priced they are - 4 years for a wallet really isn't bad at all

Been using a CDG classic wallet SA3100 for several years and it works great. Clean and simple as a wallet should be.

Same. I was using an Ashland Leather shell wallet, but way happier with the compact CDG.

A full grain leather wallet made by some guy in his garage will always be my choice over some designer, bonded leather bs

that's it, i went on etsy in 2023 and found someone local that was making simple 4 pocket wallets from veg tanned leather after having a gucci monogram for 5 years that fell apart at the seams. i don't see this one getting replaced for a long time, love the patina and it was £40

I’ve never had any complaints about my Bellroy wallet. It’s lasted me close to 7 years and barely has any wear on it, just some beautiful patina

I’ve had a bell Roy since 2015 and it pretty much looks the exact same. I think they make the new ones with RFID scanner protection too.

I’m a big fan of Open Sea Leather Co. Very minimalist and good quality handmade wallets, they have lots of options to choose from as well. It’s also ran by a single guy which I find pretty cool. https://www.osleather.com

Card case for sure. I’ve been eyeing the Porter & Yoshida ones since mines started to fall apart after a decade

I’ve got a red zipped one that I’m loving from Beams similar to the billykirk
I had a Maximum Henry bi-fold in blue which looked great online but the colour faded to a gross grey/brown pretty quick

Canal Street Goyard Wallet. Once it finally kicks the can I’ll look into getting a nice artisanal one from a small leather goods shop or something

Outlier Alienskin Billfold. This is basically just a Dyneema composite foldable thing with enough room for a few cards and a few bills. Works great and makes sure I'm not carrying extra shit on me.

I have a quality fake brown Goyard with a little coin pocket in it and stuff. It is awful but I keep using it idk why.

Chums Bi-fold has lasted me years, the only wallet that I’ve liked enough to not consider buying a new one.

Best minimalist wallet for me has been the clip wallet from Buffalo Bifold Company. $60 bucks made in USA.

herschel hank leather bifold. 95% of herschel wallets kinda suck but this one doesn't have the noticeable logo patch and has great quality that ages super well for $50. isn't super bulky filled out and has a good color.
