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 discovered the Jimi in...Submitted by TimK (not verified) on April 24, 2006 - 7:13am.
I discovered the Jimi in a discussion over at 43F Wiki (What to Carry) before it made the news here. I love it. I attached a key ring where they lanyard would go and have all the little bar code cards (library, grocery, Office Depot, etc) hooked on the outside. I also have a mini keyring Sharpie on there. I got the clear model so that I don't have to remove my license at the store (you can't do that with the old iMac looking colors.) Not sure if it will work for the more metropolitan types - a friend in NY ordered one at my suggestion and it didn't work for him because he had too many cards to carry. They should make a larger model. » POSTED IN:
