This looks so cool, I've been trying to change my wallet for months but I couldn't find good references. soo thanks for the reference

[austicuno]

I'm glad I watched your review before blindly buying this! I quickly came to the realization that this wallet is not for me haha.

[filipmikulski]

It cost so much that, if you buy it, your wallet becomes 10 times more slimmer.

This is the best video about the ridge wallet period.

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. 😂

The elastic on my is still holding strong after almost 4 years and the titanium has a few small scuffs around its edges.

[TheCdM]

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.

[Frangrance]

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.

[tsonaqua]

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.

[thomasroyal]

I bought this same kit in FDE for 117. Still expensive but doable for life time warranty

[Twisted]

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

[SlimJims]

Great review, i would recommend just paying the base product and wait for sales if possible. Too much for thr whole package.

[simonfredick]

This looks so cool. I have used ridge but it would be a pity to ignore Uniqtouch wallet LOL.

[richiereeves]

Got the key holder for 39 on sale. Got the wallet for 39 on sale as well. 80 in for both.

[Vladimir-JT]

i have had mine for 8 years and the money clip and elastic is still super strong. and if it ever does wear out its like 7 or 10 bucks for replacements

[weaverwill]

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.

[particles]

Do you have problems with the cards scratching?

[arturdutra]

i´m going into the idea to keep organize and minimal, but for me i think it extremely mininal and the contry i live the drive´s licences it´s a little large than the a card, begining complicate to used than for me

[MSimmonsAZ]

I have a rossom wallet that is a ridge knock off. Its good. The plates are rounded on the inside like the ridge, which is important. It came with a choice of strap or money clip. You have nailed the downsides. I live outside the US. I only use this wallet in the US, as I don't use much cash there. I have been using a knock off box wallet with a trigger the last 8 months. I like it a lot. Solves a lot of the ridge issues. It has an elastic pocket that sticks to the front. It is as easy to put cash or receipts in it as the ridge. $5 or so on temu. Also it is a vertical instead of horizontal wallet. That may also have some advantages when it comes to fanning the cards.

[Macacos]

I'm surprised by how difficult to use these wallets are. I have a much cheaper iClip wallet that simply has a window that lets me thumb through my cards until I get to the one I need. That simple feature blows the Ridge out of the water completely.
