Thank you. Very helpful review.

What is your other rfid wallet called where can i buy it?

Thanks for the tips on removing the cards, i just got one of these and it broke my brain

Thanks for your honest opinion

I have a leather SecureID wallet for the last 8 years and it still looks like new.

Cash strap is more secure to hold your cash as it has teeth on the other side to hold on to the cash!

I’ve always said you always get what you pay for. I’ll always stand by that. Yes you can buy multiple cheap knock off ones but I’d rather just bite the bullet and get a good one. Just my opinion I love The Ridge wallet and will always carry one.

I agree you get what you pay for. After owning the ridge wallet and using it for months, I personally still think it is extremely overpriced. The quality is decent but not worth anywhere near the asking price. I would not recommend it to people unless they feel like burning money.

@@EverythingPracticalor people should wait for sales on these, i also got titanium wallet from ridge and my initial feel was similar to yours, it arrived with screwdriver that was already weared out and airtag clip that i had to swap .... luckily i noticed the broken screwdriver just in time before i destroyed the screws 😀 yes the price when off sale is monstrous ... but its all about profit margins , if rossm or mountain voyage will sell these 10 dollar wallets for 50 bucks they still make good profit anyway , and i would rather prefer ridge when on sale than other similar wallets , im now considering aviator wallet though because of bigger and better accesible coin tray and ability to change capacity of cards , but all of these wallets suffers from one problem that i hate and its that bills are exposed so older bills might tear more quickly when they are double folded and are not covered inside wallet, especially when you carry the wallet inside the backpack and it moves in it with other stuff around

I live in switzerland too so thats nice to know how the bills fit in☝🏻👍🏻

😃 You have to fold it twice, otherwise it hangs off of the side

The best clone of the ridge is the rossm they even do a lot of the same models but at least a third of the price but most at a quarter of the price of the ridge and the only difference is the lack of a lifetime warranty which does not mean much as the peice most likely to fail is not covered by the warranty and neither is the finish because it doesn't include wear and tear So the warranty is not worth the paper it's printed on unless you get one that was badly manufactured and fall apart within a few weeks which is highly unlikely

Is it just me or does this look absolutely unusable? Im 100% sure at some point when im in a rush getting my bus pass out im going to press something too hard and explode my wallet all around me. Its a disaster waiting to happen!

How has it held up? I’m thinking about getting the black leather because I don’t have to worry about chipping or it getting paint chips but they don’t have a matching leather key case so I’ve been thinking about this one but with the blue flake.

I have stopped using mine regularly and have since been using my wallet from Vaultskin. At a 5th of the price and it is much more comfortable to carry around. But, the ridge wallet held up well. I had quite a few dents around the edges even though I was careful with it.. again, if it were 50.- Id say go for it, but it's too overpriced for what it is, in my opinion.

Pretty good 20% off coupon code, not be doing research I think it's going to be a good fit, but I completely agree with you as far as the keychain goes, I wanted to get one but there's no way in hell I'm spending that much money, I wouldn't spend more than $20 on it.

Comparison, yes. Auto-correct 🤭 and I am calm 🙃 Ultimate Review, not Ultimate comparison 😉 and to note, there is a comparison to another popular style of a minimalist wallet. Did you miss that? What doesnt make sense with your comment is that it infers that all videos should compare to what else is available on the open market, and as it may be nice, that is not the point of most videos. This video is a review of the Ridge wallet. The video is very detailed, and I provide the dimensions of the wallet as well as compare it to another minimalist wallent. The information is there... So, in a way, I wonder if you are unable to deduce the difference of items if it is not clearly laid out for you or, in general, just have unreasonable expectations.

Who would want to buy this wallet for real? This is the company that had Trevor Jacob crash his plane after he jumped out of it! This is an irresponsible company! I sure hope people have a brain and think about the damage that could have been caused if someone were hiking in the area or to any wildlife in the area when the plane went down in the stunt promoted by this company! Shame on you guys for doing such an irresponsible Act! I'd go out of my way to buy from anyone else but you guys. When you put people's lives on the line and the welfare of all wildlife that live in the area where the plane crashed, it's totally irresponsible! Would never buy your wallet. Ever!!
