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

Until I grew up into chickdom, I roamed the mean streets with my guys carrying only a pocket comb, some chapstick and whatever cash I had in my jeans' pockets (this was the 80s and 90s, so we're not talking much pocket room - we all wore pants so tight that you could read the wash label of our underwear without peeking inside). Now that I've gone all girly, I've moved from pockets to big bags and back down to small, minimal purses. Although I can still get by with my street gear (which has shifted slightly to a bank card, lipgloss, Swiss Army knife and a driver's license) when the need arises. » POSTED IN:
