News, reviews and articles about wallets.
I had a chance to review a great little wallet from A-SLIM, the Sapphire Black Chikara. After using the wallet in real world situations I can say that this wallet is exceeding my expectations when it comes to the smaller slimmer thin billfold wallets.

I have been hunting for a small, thin, efficient, rugged wallet for years that isn’t overly expensive.

Wallets are a simple device on the surface, basically designed to carry your cards and cash. Not unlike many, I have complicated my wallet by adding things like a pen and pen knife. I have been pretty loyal to my old wallet for a while since it was custom made for me. But wallets have

I know there are many walletaholics here on The Gadgeteer and sadly I’m one of them. After becoming a front pocket carrier I appear to have accumulated a wallet for different occasions. My EDC is a Saddleback Leather Small and when I need a more minimal wallet I put a subset of my cards into

Wallet phone cases have been around for a while. Not the slip-a-few-cards-in-the-back cases, but the fold-over, cover-the-screen type wallet cases. Most have an elastic band to hold them closed, but they are all fraught with difficulties, not the least of which is holding your entire wallet up to your ear during a phone call. Enter

I’ll just come right out and say it. I’m a big fan of Bellroy’s wallets. I’ve tried their Slim Sleeve and their Elements Pocket wallets and have really liked both of them (I still have the Elements Pocket in my regular EDC rotation). When Julie gave me the opportunity to try out Bellroy’s latest wallet,

I’ve recently become a front pocket wallet convert. Instead of carrying a bunch of credit cards, a wad of cash, loose change, loyalty cards, receipts and other flotsam in a zippered wallet that I carry in my gear bag, I’ve pared down to just a few cards and a few folded dollars in a wallet

Although it seems like smartphones are trying to replace traditional wallets, we still need a pocket holder for our cash and credit cards. The wallet won’t go down without a fight, but it does continue to shrink in size. The X2 Slimmy wallet from Koyono is a minimalist wallet that was successfully funded on Kickstarter early

I’m still on my own quest for the “perfect” wallet. And although this quest may never really result in actually finding the “perfect” wallet (for me), it sure is fun along the way. Lately, I’ve been on a kick to find a very minimal, thin, everyday carry wallet. When Julie offered the opportunity to try

I travel outside the USA for work several times per year and one thing I am a bit paranoid about is carrying my passport with me everywhere I go. I even take it to the hotel gym with me. However, I also always carry my iPhone with me and often I want my wallet as

I have been using a front pocket wallet for over a decade, but still haven’t decided that the one I’m using is my ultimate. I remember a year or two back reading about the Tribe Wallet on Kickstarter, but hadn’t backed it. Not sure why. When Julie offered the team the Tribe Wallet 3.0, a

I LOVE the concept of a minimalistic wallet. Every now and then, I do my best to empty my wallet of nonessential bulk. But sadly I never even get close to what I would consider sleek or slim. The artisans at Leather Works have created just that, a thin, well-made wallet designed to carry around your

Wallets, like gear bags, are an every day necessity. But they can easily become stuffed with items that you don’t really need or use, becoming more of a burden to carry than a useful accessory. I think that’s why we’re seeing so many minimalist wallets on the market right now. People are tired of clutter and bulky

I keep wanting to switch to a minimalist wallet, but there’s one thing that prevents me from doing so – having to double fold my cash. Call me crazy, but I don’t want to fold my cash in half and then fold it in half once more, just to fit it in the wallet. The
