Open Thread: What's your favorite minimalist wallet?
Merlin Mann | Apr 21 2006
Like most 43F articles on economical carriage and stowage, the Jimi post attracted a lot of interest. Makes me think it's time for an open thread: What's your favorite minimalist wallet? Jimi? Slimmy? Moneyclip? Coin purse? Goin' commando? Spill in comments (and feel free to link to canonical product pages or price compar-i-nators like Froogle). My own winner for minimalism? Starting before a trip to New York in the late 80s, I started wrapping my driver's license, ATM card, and a bill or two in a couple of my Goody pony tail holders (shut up). I think that was my wallet for at least the next two years -- until I got my first real job and decided to go cowhide again. Still, it remains one of my favorites. 212 Comments

I think there are two fundamental questions:
I'd be interested in seeing what people say is "must have." The obvious choices are a credit/ATM card, ID, and cash - but what about your health insurance and/or dental plan cards, membership cards required for places your frequent, mass transit card, recent receipts, etc? For example, I have all of that plus a few small photos of my wife in one of those wallets that folds around your cash (with the metal hook to hold it in place), which i keep in my front pocket (even though it is a bit too big). » POSTED IN:
