What wallet are you using?

So, I’ve been getting a lot of heat from the peanut gallery in my office about my wallet - or literally lack therof. See, I don’t actually own a wallet. I just keep all my cards, I.D, and cash bundled together by a rubber band and use that as my wallet (some days I don’t even have the rubber band and just go with it too).

But, since my amex card got replaced with the new RF chip technology, I am somewhat nervous about hackers trying to steal my stuff, and them printing it out onto a new card. So, I’m ready to conform to societies bullshit ways and start using a wallet. What y’all got that’s thin? I would rather my identity be stolen then ever wander around the streets with a fat wallet. 99% of the appeal of me using a rubber band is just because it’s the lowest profile (and easily accessible).

Help me, help myself.

I thought the rubber band thing was reserved for the made men down in jersey

I use a leather wallet my mom gave me many years ago when I was a teenage… it does the job. If it’s lasted this long, it may be the only one I ever have.

Life tip: every accessory should be a Tactical version, as you never know when you will be stranded in the forest and forced to rely on items on your body to hunt, skin and cook deer. Your coworkers won’t be laughing any more when your wallet saves them from a fire or terrorist attack, or when you use your manliness to cuckold them in front of everyone (unless they are into it, I guess).

So, rubber band is would never fly for me now but I used to do similar things when I was your age and it seems like we have similar checklists (low profile, etc).

I used to use these which are nice and minimalist. They can be a bit of a pain until it breaks in, but once it does, cards mold to their leather sleave or vice versa and you can flip them in and out pretty simply with your finger.

Alternately there’s this one with the money clip but I always avoided because I didn’t like the idea of the pressure point from the money clip over time on either me or my clothes.

Now I just use an aluminum money clip I got somewhere that’s very simple and looks like the “Alaska Bear” one in this list (I also keep it minimalist) I carry ID, Work ID, two cards and a couple bills worth of cash in case somewhere is cash only. If you still want to do rubber band but want RFID blocking, the ROCO one in this same list might work for you.

Edit: I think mine was from Etsy and they have a ton of things under money clip.

$75 for a wallet?!?!?!

If your mom is still in town, she can buy it for you!!! :+1: :heart:

It makes me feel pretty.

OP, if you want Coach or that kind of item, you can get them for cheaper on Ebay. The official store will only sell current year products. The old stock trickles into the grey market, and you also get some inventory from overseas that they can’t sell in those countries.

Coach outlet may have some good deals.

i stopped using wallets for the last 5 years. i usually use cell phone wallet cases that dont look like wallets. this was mine. it uses magnets to keep it from opening. but its a lil tight.

granted i always hand over my phone to random chicks to get their digits. no one has ever tried to run away with my phone. lol also in vegas xs we had bottle service right in the water and i was throwing my phone around and leaving it out in the open to get jacked cuz i went into the water and stuff and i didnt want it to get wet. thx god the people there are of high quality. cuz if they took my phone. they woulda gotten my dl, credit card, and my emergency $20 etc. bad decisions all around. but as tyga once said, my nigga im faded. also it was a bit disgusting. one of my friends supposedly hooked up with a bride to be in the xs pool that was a friend of one of our friends. she was aight. i get that theres chlorine. but just imagine how often that happens in those pools. the amount of ppl with stds and crap swimming around like mud butt.

there are other wallets like this taht may be better:

this 1 is a bit revealing:

Yeah but then you start running into the risk of fakes which are rampant anymore, even on Amazon. Different utility for everyone, but that is what has scared me off of those platforms lately.

coach = poor

Louis Vuitton makes nice men’s wallets

I’ll address these both at once. There is no way any non-castrated male should be using a print pattern wallet, which is by and large every designer above Coach.

I don’t really know these brands to be honest. Who is Coach? And what will this say/signal about my lifestyle choices? I should also point out, I don’t even use a cell phone case. I can’t be bothered with the already outrageously large size of the phone in my pants, and on top of that be weighed down by some stupid rubber case.

I guess what Im asking is, will the coach wallet make me look sophisticated? Or trendy? I’m certainly no hipster, and don’t have a man bun. I wear flip flops, tank tops, and pastel shorts everywhere I go - hence the no phone case, and rubber band wallet (it just works).

Lol. Back when I had it, I went with the Coach one because it was completely plain other than an embossed logo barely visible in the corner. So I wouldn’t give that thought. Some girls noticed it and liked it although rarely. I’ve heard it called the poor person’s Gucci so maybe that gives context. Anyhow, I just got it because it was plain and decent leather.

Why not just go money clip (what I’m doing now)? Seems way better for your purposes.

But that’s just a money clip. I have credit cards too.

Worth it, buying sh!t quality stuff becomes more expensive in the long run.

What?!
