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 use polypropylene card sleeves...Submitted by Melissa (not verified) on April 27, 2006 - 8:37am.
I use polypropylene card sleeves designed for baseball cards. They are less than $1 for a pack of 100 sleeves, and last about 2 months each, depending on usage. They hold about 5 or 6 cards, or fewer cards plus folded cash. If I don't have a pocket (blast those women's clothing designers who refuse to include pockets), I put the card sleeve into an Eagle Creek travel wallet that can go on a belt or a cord (the older, smaller version of the Express Pouch: http://www.eaglecreek.com/40230.html). This also holds my keys, coins, and cell phone, if I have to carry them. » POSTED IN:
