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

Bifold leather wallet. Opens like a book. I was irritated by the trifold, too-many-pockets wallets, but not enough to abandon traditional wallets altogether. It's mostly about the looks: I wear more conservative clothing and would feel weird carrying around a hunk of plastic in my pocket. Plus, you can get midrange "designer" wallets for super cheap at TJ Maxx all the time. » POSTED IN:
