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

Someone already said they wore through theirs, but my Coach Card Case has held up for several years and is the perfect size for me. Driver's License, bank card, and two credit cards in the outside slots, Metro Smartcard (which can be scanned through the wallet), insurance cards and cash (folded once only) on the inside. I'm pretty sure the only way you would trash this thing is if you tried to jam the center pocket with too much stuff, which kind of defeats the point we're going for with these. Oh, and I use mine front pocket only, but that has more to back/hip issues than pick-pocket worries. » POSTED IN:
