I have used a knock-off ridge wallet for a couple years now and came to many of the same conclusions about the form factor that you state. One thing you did not mention is: a small sticky note stuck to the inside of one of the plates will stay in place and persist for a long time, even with one of my two most commonly used cards sliding past it often. I use one in mine to keep a hard copy of a password, but any kind of info like hotel room number or parking space I can carry "in my wallet". I don't have the coin case but I think I want one now. 😂

Hello there! We apologize for the interruption. As a new wallet manufacturer, we are currently in the market research phase and would like to conduct interviews with individuals who have previously purchased Ridge Wallets. The interview format is still being determined, but it will involve asking you some simple questions about why you chose to purchase Ridge Wallets. As a token of our appreciation, we are prepared to offer remuneration for your time. Would you be interested in assisting a small business with its preliminary market research? If you are, please let us know, and we can discuss the details of the remuneration. Thank you very much!

If the elastic breaks that’s not normal wear and tear. Normal wear and tear is like cracks from dropping or faded color or stretched out elastic. Lifetime warranty obviously covers a broken elastic strap.

I just use a basic bifold leather wallet, similar thickness and it costs me $25 and lasts 2-3 years lol. I do like the ridge key chain though

used my ridge titanium for about 5 years now. It was a gift, and the price is surely high, but I still love it and use it as my only wallet since then. It is scratched but still looks cool and works perfectly fine, even the elastic didnt get loose. the quality is there and I doubt the cheaper options would last that well that long. I really appreciated the customer service as well. at the time my wife had an issue with the delivery and they just shipped a new one, no questions asked, just to get it on time for my birthday. Since then I gifted another titaniun wallet to my dad, and now we just upgraded both with the airtag clips, and 2x ridge keychains. as you said, the only issue is when I travel to countries where the notes are worth little and you need to carry a lot of them. I usually have 50 to 100 euro in my ridge without issue, but if I want to have the same value when in Turkey or India that would be so many notes that is impossibile to fit them under the clip.

Love your review!

Great wallet overall, however my main issue with it over the months was that it is metal (which should have been obvious to me at first), but pairing it with a phone in the same pocket causes the wallet to scratch up whatever is with it (eg. phone screens) meaning I always have to isolate the wallet in my pocket 😂

No it does not. The elastic is on 3 of the 4 sides. The side without the elastic is the side the card goes in and out of. Also check out Aviator wallet too.

As a fellow Canadian, who recently changed to one of these, Canadian money DOES NOT like being folded. For you Americans, Canadian money is plastic, not paper. More than once pulling bills out and attempting to pull out a bill or two resulted in an explosion of cash that I have a hard time explaining. Now that I've gone through that a few times I've kinda changed how I handle it but it requires a little more delicacy.

Thanks for the comment. Agreed that this is a very expensive wallet. Definitely wait for the sales that could be as much as 40%. Just track what the regular price is because a lot of companies also change the price and make it look like you are getting a better deal than you actually are. I don't know if Ridge does this or not. On the other hand, part of the appeal of the Ridge is the fancy cover plates. Take those away and there's less desire to get them. Might as well just get another brand slim wallet like it. There are many nowadays for a lot less and by good brands like Spigen too.

I’ve had a ridge wallet for 5 years now. I recently bought a new one because I wanted a different Color. The original one I have still holds strong in the elastics department. The cash strap is scuffed but other than that, you can’t tell my wallet is that old and has been riding in pockets full of other stuff 👍 I love ridge wallets, the only downside is really the price.

Agreed. They are made really well and the unique and vast selection of cover plates are nice to personalize your wallet. I do wish they just sold cover plates individually to so that if you just want to change the color or design it is less expensive to, instead of buying a whole new wallet. Recently, I have been using the Aviator wallet and that is my go to at the moment. I like the pull strap for faster easier access to the cards and the thumb slot is another area that allows me to further customize the wallet as a DIY.

It does seem like a lot of people buy a slim wallet ridge wallet leather wallet whatever - but then seen to wind up filling it up pretty overfilled anyway. I’ve never been a massive believer in sort of a “1 item for everything” type of product. People seem to want their 1 thing to do everything. I shave my head bald and trim my beard at various lengths - to do that I’d say I use probably 5/6 different stylers (head shaver beard trimmer razor etc) I could use 1/2 things if I am travelling but if I’m at home I use different things for different tasks. People seem to buy a slim wallet and start off by putting their licence/1 or 2 credit/debit cards/university id/healthcare card etc 3-5 cards….. then ad another….. and another. I’d say 7 cards plus a coin tray plus coins plus 10+ bills is just too much for a slim wallet. I carry 5 cards max (usually 4) and no more than 2 bills. Generally a larger bill and something smaller. I have a slim leather card holder very slim and small which has another 5/6 cards and if I’m going to need 1 of those cards I’ll take that with me. It’s still much slimmer in my pocket with 2 extremely slim wallets than 1 fat wallet.

@FrakkingCreations

7 ай бұрын

Right. It is thicker because I added the Coin case. When you take what you normally have in the regular wallet and put it into the Ridge wallet and use it as it was designed then it should be smaller. The coin case is typically meant for coins and I usually keep my coins in my pockets so it doesn't make sense compare with the coin tray installed with coins in it. Since I prefer to store my cash in the coin tray instead of the strap, I guess it depends how you want to compare it. The coin case adds quite a bit to the thickness of the Ridge wallet. Also, don't forget how much smaller the Ridge wallet is length and width wise. I can now easily put the Ridge wallet in my front pocket instead of the back pocket. Much better for sitting posture, while providing better physical security for my wallet.

Or why don't you just attach the money clip to the otherside. That way you can store double the amount of bills by using both cash strap and clip. Problem solved.

@FrakkingCreations

Yes, that can work too. For me, I prefer not to cover both panels since part of the appeal of this wallet is the custom panels, which is part of the high price you pay. Having both sides covered doesn't let you see the nice finish of the panels. One side uncovered is what I prefer. Using both the clip and money strap can definitely work for others. Also, having that much cash makes the wallet bulkier and mine is already getting big with 6 plastic cards, the coin tray and other non-plastic cards. This type of wallet definitely doesn't work well for someone that likes to carry a lot of cash.

@FrakkingCreations

Mine is getting on the chunky side. I have 6 plastic cards, the coin tray (size of 3 cards stacked), and other items. In the end, it really is how the owner uses it. Any other wallet that holds that many items will also start to get chunky. Though, I suppose f you get a similar style slim wallet without the fancy cover and metal plates underneath the cover plates, it could be less chunky. In the ends, in the true spirit of these types of wallets, you really have to reduce and bring less with you if you want to have a slimmer wallet.

Does it ruin your cards?

@FrakkingCreations

I wouldn't say that the wallet itself directly ruins cards. The way it works by putting cards next to each other and pressing them together could cause them to scratch each other as you take the cards out and put them back in. That would also depend on the types of cards you have and what they are made of. Does that answer your question?

Hello, I have a paid consultation about the ridge wallet and would like to cooperate with you. Are you interested?

I have the slimmest wallet. None. You said you can survive with fewer cards on you. The number you need is one or zero. At that point, why contain it. Just leave card you want to be reasonably close but don't actually use every day in your car. Your car is always with you or five minutes away. "How do I get my specific card out of this thing?" If you are smart it is just the one card. You are still carrying worthless crap with you.

Why is it that some people feel the need to force their opinions on others? You do realize that not everyone lives the life you do or has the same requirements or interests in life as you, right? This topic is not equivalent to a world level importance like hunger or war. It's not even about ethics, morals or life and death... it's a personal choice. So why the harsh criticism and comments as if you have the ultimate answer and there is no other way about it and everyone must have a life like yours? You only need one card. That's perfectly fine. You have your needs and you fullfilled it. Other people have different requirements and they fullfill those needs. No one is asking anyone that only needs one card to "contain it" in a wallet. Why are you watching a video about a slim wallet when you clearly don't need a wallet and seem to hate wallets? Not everyone has a car so to assume that those people could just leave it in their car is not possible. What you mentioned also doesn't make sense. You say you only need one card. It sounds like you are referring to a payment card of some sort since you mentioned "Just leave card you want to be reasonably close but don't actually use every day in your car. Your car is always with you or five minutes away". So I suppose your suggestion is to drive the car without bringing your driver's license with you since you only have your one payment card with you... because you should only have "one or zero cards". Other cards people may want to bring include: * their health insurance card * second credit card in case the first is only accepted at some locations (e.g. Costco Canada only accepts Mastercard). Also, not every retailer takes smart payments so you can't always pay with your phone. * a debit card (to pay in cash since some places only accept cash or debit OR to be able to withdraw cash) * Driver's license to be able to drive legally * Some countries are still cash based, so a wallet is used to carry cash as well * Access cards (RFID, etc...) * Membership cards * Bus pass * Rewards/Points/Stamp cards So maybe you don't have a car, have the slimest wallet and don't need any cards, have an opinion and are the ultimate minimalist. Perfectly fine. Nobody truly cares. Do what you need for your needs. Not everyone lives in the same city or country or has or wants the same lifestyle as you.
