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 an Eagle Creek...Submitted by Yggdrasil (not verified) on April 27, 2006 - 11:14am.
I use an Eagle Creek Zip Travel Wallet. It's perfect. I carry ID, 2 CC, 1 ATM card, Insurance, and a couple of others (supermarket, REI, Library, and such), as well as currency. This thing zips shut securely and is still small enough to sit on very comfortably. One space saver: instead of full-sized cards, I use those keychain-dangles when available: 3 of those take up the same space as 1 card. Sadly, Eagle creek doesn't make the zip wallet anymore. They've replaced them with the "slim travel wallet" mentioned above, in bi- and trifold. I have one of the bifold as a travel backup: tiiiiiiny. » POSTED IN:
