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 recently ordered a Jimi...Submitted by Roadkillkid (not verified) on April 21, 2006 - 8:31am.
I recently ordered a Jimi - in 'Kitt from Knight Rider Black' of course - and it arrived in the post today. It's a strangely liberating feeling deciding which of my old wallet's detritus to bin, and which to keep. The mom n pop record store loyalty card bit the dust, as well as the Barney's coffee 'Every 5th coffee free' punchcard, but my life is so much less complicated because of it. Maybe the people who produce Jimi could use this post as a testimonial? Hmmm. "Jimi helped me think out of the box" No, didn't think so. It's cool wallet anyways. » POSTED IN:
