Wallets

King Rudi · 04-21-2020, 08:35 AM

I've been a Coach guy for years, but their wallets seem to always break my debit cards with how the card slots are stacked. Time for a new wallet. What do you guys carry and why do you like them. .......and go.

I got a RFID blocking wallet on Amazon. It has actually lasted longer than the fancy name brand one's I've used in the past, and it is considerably cheaper.

Murf993 · 04-21-2020, 08:41 AM

I didn't buy it though so I don't know where you'd get one.

kscarrol · 04-21-2020, 08:45 AM

Good to see that the Toronto PD is no better than my local DMV at taking head shot photos!!

unluky · 04-21-2020, 08:45 AM

Been a front pocket wallet guy since my early days of being on the road. I like them with a magnetic flap instead of the steel clip. Current one is a Fossil I picked up somewhere on a whim and it has been a nice one. Can hold 6-7 cards easy (more if you cram it) and a pretty good wad of cash. I HATE loyalty cards and only carry my drivers license, CCW card, ATM, and a couple of credit cards anyway - so it's perfect for me and I never have to sit on it.

Been thinking about trying one of the Bullstrap ones - I like the looks of them even thought it is something no one ever see's..........

I carry the carbon Ridge. It's a front pocket wallet. Love it, especially since I hate a wallet in my back pocket.

Looked at those. As of now it's between Ridge, Secrid, Trayvax and Dango. Leaning more toward Secrid.

Shitty thing is, that I just paid $250 for the current Coach wallet and really like the wallet. I just don't want to replace my debit card every 3 months.

I use a wallet case for my iPhone. 2 credit cards, an ID and a $20 bill. Been doing this for 5 years and the only issue is if you lose your phone, you lose your wallet. And I can't go to Costco on a whim because I don't carry my Costco card with me.

MPOWER5266 · 04-21-2020, 08:56 AM

A cheap Ridge knock off from Amazon.

Money clip which was a college graduation present....23 years ago! Tried going back to a wallet but they are so uncomfortable in comparison to a money clip.

dinonz · 04-21-2020, 09:02 AM

I have a BMW M wallet, but besides being a nice wallet, I chose it for the storage because I carry a *LOT* of stuff - and unlike most Americans it seems, I carry my wallet in a front pocket - I never put anything in my back pockets. But I have:

Drivers License
Green Card
Global Entry Card
Primary Amex Card
Business Amex Card
Health Insurance Card
Dental Insurance Card
Gas Amex Card for using at fuel pumps - low limit if hacked
Bank Debit Card
backup Mastercard for places that don't take Amex

And that's after I've removed my TopGolf member card, TacoDeli VIP card another other membership cards (Hagerty etc.) that you seem to need these days.

ASAP · 04-21-2020, 09:06 AM

I have a small LV card holder...its almost perfect in size. I rarely carry cash and couldn't imagine going back to a large wallet.

M_Six · 04-21-2020, 09:14 AM

Basic LL Bean wallet most of the time. I have a super-slim ID card/CC/few bills wallet I use when I'm out for a ride on the bike.

This is the one I have, cheap and minimalist:

I'm using a carbon fiber money clip that I bought on October 2017 for $12.99, now it's $9.99 amazon link to it

it has stood up to a young kid, countless drunk shenanigans for almost 2.5 years with only surface level scuffs on it. my only gripe with it is because it's a money clip my cards scratch so I carry two "bumper" cards with it
