Open Thread: What's your favorite minimalist wallet?
Submitted by Merlin on April 21, 2006 - 4:55am.
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.

I go with the money...
I go with the money clip with card holder attached, although it is getting bulky now. I need a new solution soon, but when my money clip is full will a new solution come to fruit. I just couldn’t stand the wallet anymore, the fat thing on my ass making me sit sideways causing back problems. Now my problem with the money clip that I have is that it looks like I am carrying a large wallet in my front pocket…maybe if I stopped wearing leather pants this wouldn’t be an issue, I mean I switched to clip from wallet when I started wearing leather ass chaps so….(ok that last part was a joke.)
