This is a great little collection! Just a bit of advice on the very first wallet, the Belroy card sleeve, you’re supposed to put your bills in the front slit not in the big pocket. That might help with the polymer notes making it look thinner.

I have two topsiders. My favorite wallet by far. So tiny and you don't have to fold cash.

Very nice. Have a look at nivisto in Sidney. The kangaroo leather is super tough and very thin.

3 and 4 almost perfect 4 me. Been on a sarch 4 the perfect 1 4 years, cant seem 2 find 1. Closest I havve ever gotten is the American Bench Craft THe Frontier wallet. 99.9999% perfect 4 my needs.

In case it's useful for anyone...I just ordered a Houbei 2.0. I emailed them about British notes and for an extra $25 they do have a version that's a few mm wider designed especially for British and Euro notes. That's what I've ordered. I'll see what it's like when it arrives.

Willow Craft Goods Swaddle wallet (wide) or Luxe Quick Access is good for UK banknotes.

Thanks

UK GBP notes always been slightly difficult to insert (expect £5 note) and it sticks out a bit, it is a perfect fit for US notes because these are made for those smaller notes specifically I wish they made slighter wider for those bigger GBP notes like £20 and £50. I really don't understand why it struggles with £10 notes.

I suggest you clip a MIC on your shirt to record the sound better. Overall, great video

What a progression! All great choices really. I started with Trayvax, then a Stow. After that i discovered leather and havent looked back. I picked up a Popov 5 card and a Loyal Stricklin Johnny, both Horween leather.. I carried the Johnny daily for 2.5 years, its a great wallet. I just picked up a Topsider, Houbei, and Lost Dutchman Franklin because i got the itch again. Im wondering if one of them will knock the Johnny out, time will tell

I started with a trayvax too! It destroyed my cards so I switched to leather and picked up a Holtz Leather Charleston card carrier. Now I’m looking for something to handle just an ever so slight amount of cash while not adding any bulk. It’s proved difficult.

I just ordered a topsider mini from Open Sea Leather. Have you checked these minis out?

No, I’ve only ever handled the regular Topsider and the Houbei. The minis would be too small for my UK bank notes.

Yeah, the mini is extremely small, I find the topside perfect for US bill

I own several secrid wallets and several bellroy wallets and several open sea leather wallets and several willow craft goods leather wallets and several trayvax wallets and ridge and nomatic

JJ Leathersmith has an international wallet that is a bit wider to accommodate the "taller" bills.
