5 Standout Minimalist Wallets
Wallets are taking on a variety of unique forms these days, with small manufacturers aiming for minimalist design, vintage looks and, above all, functionality. Most of these won’t offer much space for old receipts or ticket stubs, though. Which is probably a good thing.
1. Daycraft Moneywrap
Subtlety and simplicity are the driving forces behind the Moneywrap’s design. Abandoning pockets and card slots in favor of a single piece of folded leather that wraps around its contents, it’s such an intuitive system it almost seems too obvious. Anything more minimalist than this and you might as well just stick your money directly in your pocket. $57, TheMoneyWrap.com
2. Southern Field Industries Flap Wallet
It looks like something out of an Americana museum, but the Flap Wallet is the product of Japan-based Southern Field Industries. Little more than a hand-stitched leather pouch, it’s designed to carry what you need and nothing else. $65, SouthernFieldStore.com
3. Dosh Luxe 3
Dosh produces an interesting lineup of highly modern wallets that utilize nylon, metal and rubber in place of your traditional leather. The Luxe 3 is a slim piece that encourages the user to trim his daily carry down to the essentials. $75, DoshBrand.com
4. Filson Outfitter
A traditional bi-fold with a dual-fabric twist, the Outfitter pairs a leather body with a twill exterior for a cool two-tone look. $88, Filson.com
5. Maxx and Unicorn Bi-Fold
Brooklyn-based Maxx and Unicorn cuts and folds each of these wallets one by one from single pieces of leather. The result is a unique piece that defies traditional billfold design. $88,SupermarketHQ.com
Minimalist Wallets
Minimalist Wallets are a huge hit right now because many people are moving towards living a life with less things.
Lifestyle designers like Tim Ferriss have made minimalist living more of a mainstream thing and wallets like these are a perfect addition to your minimalist lifestyle.
These minimalist wallets will be useful for when you want to keep it light when heading out on the town or just to get rid of some of the clutter in your life. You probably want to get rid of some of your clutter, don’t ya?
