Minimalist Wallet/Money Clip People; get in here

[gothamhunter]

So, I'm a minimalist wallet kind of person.

I'm thinking maybe something like a money clip is what I'm looking for? Does anyone have any recommendations? I was looking at this guy's shop on Etsy.

Thanks in advanced

Edit: When I say minimalist, I just mean that I don't need a 50 pocket tri-fold wallet carrying all my receipts. Right now in my Crabby Wallet I carry some folded cash and about 8 cards. I"m also a front-pocket carrier but would move to a back-pocket with the right wallet. That or I carry in my jacket.

This may be hard to believe, but there's a fellow, Steve Montelli, with a YouTube channel devoted to minimalist wallet reviews. He does a very nice job, especially covering the smaller shops and crowdfunded projects.

Maybe you're thinking of something like the Waskerd Pinnell Money Clip Wallet.

My personal preference is for pretty close to as minimal as you can go. I carry a card sleeve with three cards and carry my cash folded in half in the same pocket, no clip or anything. The sleeve protects the cards and the cash is easy to access. I can reach into my pocket and easily pull out just the card sleeve, just the cash, or both. Never really understood the need for a money clip. I do like the Pinnell design, though, and might try it some day.

a true minimalist has duct tape wallet

I've had this one for a few years. Takes up very little space in my pocket. I hate thick leather wallets and I don't carry my wallet or anything in my back pockets, and it takes up little room in front pants pocket.

Mind = blown

An ID, debit card and fiver doesn't need a wallet/clip.

Don't be that guy.

you got loaded photos of this?


I'm a front pocket wallet kinda guy. But i'm far from a minimlist.

I've used this WALLET for the past few years. Holds my School and Work ID, DL, Couple of bucks, 3 credit cards, health and auto insurance cards.

I could slim down to 1 card but it would cost me money to slim down.


Now that i have a galaxy note 4, i'm looking into slimming down the wallet and keys.

 

[gothamhunter]

Thanks so far guys.

Quebert I really like the look of the one you linked.

I bought this on a whim after getting tired of overloading my bi-fold leather wallet for many years.

This one forces me not to carry everything. I really like it.

I've been using a Nixon leather wallet for years that I love for its small size. It's a bi-fold with a money clip inside, which I prefer.

I've been looking to replace it recently and haven't found anything I like as much outside Nixon.

 

[PenguinPower]

I use this. Little pricey, but I love it.

Cash + ID + Credit Card (in protective sleeve) + large green paper clip. Total cost of my wallet ~7 cents.

I always laugh when I see these guys with huge bulges from their over-stuffed wallets; 99% of which they will use once a year if ever.

I laugh when people don't see the advantage of carrying around multiple credit cards and insurance cards and not showing off an entire wad of cash every time I pull out my money.

Honestly, I wish more places would just take NFC payments. If that could happen I could just carry my driver's license, CC permit, and insurance cards.

It would be 4-6 cards and nothing else.

What's the advantage of carrying multiple credit cards?

If I'm just going to the store, my 'wad' of cash is $20. At most I have $200, but only when going grocery shopping. If I lived in Cabrini Green in Chicago, or South Central LA, I might change my practices, but...

The only insurance card you need when going out is car insurance, and that stays in my car. I have my Nationwide agents phone number memorized in case the card gets lost.

I use a rubber band to hold together my driver's license, work badge, personal cc, business cc, aaa card, cafeteria card, metro card, bank card, health insurance cards, and a couple of corporate discount/rewards cards plus cash folded into quarters. I keep this in my front right pocket. Any receipts I acquire throughout the day go into the same pocket and get filed when I get home.

Tommy Bahama leather front pocket card holder wallet foe DL, ATM, gas card, insurance card. Money clip for cash. Chiropractor told me 10yrs ago to get the wallet out of my back pocket. I'll try to find a pic of the TB if I can.

I have a Bellroy Slim Sleeve. I don't know how minimalist that is, but it pretty small and I love it. It doesn't really have a place for cash, but I rarely carry cash and even when I do, I keep it out of my wallet anyway.

http://bellroy.com/wallets/slim-sleeve-wallet is the actual wallet. Very nice.

 

[Remobz]

Good thread. I need a smaller wallet for my front pockets.

May not be mini enough but this is what I use --

A guy at work did this and he looked homeless. He'd pull out a ball of crumpled bills and some cards with a rubber band around them, looked ridiculous. At least get some cheap clip or something.

I use this from Duluth Trading Company. I generally carry two CC's, a debit card, work ID badge, drivers license, and insurance cards.

I've had it for ~2 years now, maybe 3. It's had some fraying of the liner on the inside of the cash pocket, but other parts that actually matter are still in good condition. Definitely small enough to fit in the front pocket.

 

[slayer202]

most of those gimmicky things look ugly and cheap. I use a cardholder with 6 card slots and it's small enough for me
