Men's wallet

[Chaoster]

Are you a bifold or trifold guy.
I use a trifold I like the way it fits in the pocket better.

 

[L&Lfan]

All my wallets have been gifts . Currently it’s a bifold but it’s getting pretty ratty. I’ll be looking for a new one sometime soon.

 

[tvguy]

I hadn't though about it. But I have had trifolds for years and years and years. Not sure why. I have had bifolds, but decades ago.

My dh has a leather bifold that has window pocket flap that he uses to store his insurance card and license. He says that it's the best wallet I've bought him.

 

[amberpi]

Dh uses one of those phone case/wallet jobs so he reduces one thing in his pockets. It was a little pricey, but looks very posh when he pulls it out.

DH uses a Coach bifold leather wallet. He bought it about 5 years ago and it’s still in great condition. Best $50 spent!

 

[Timhags]

Good thread. I'm gonna buy a new one for my upcoming solo trip. Was thinking a trifold Velcro? Carrying a little cash, I'd, maybe a card. Would love to set up a Google pay account and just carry I'd. Anyone have experience with that?

I gave up on carrying a separate wallet 2 years ago and couldn't be happier!

Instead I have a cell phone case that doubles as a wallet. That way I only have to keep up with one item.

I went with a 2 in 1 detachable style.

I keep my license tucked behind the phone in that part of the case. I can remove the phone and leave the wallet part behind when I go exercise. That way I have my phone, license, and ApplePay available for emergencies.

For the wallet side I whittled down all my cards to 2 credit cards in one slot, my ATM card and Costco card in the second slot, and my medical, prescription, and a general discount card in the third slot. For all the other cards I used to carry around I found digital alternatives.

 

[Julie's Haircut]

Bi-fold money clip wallet, similar to this. Has a clear window for driver's license, about 5 slots for credit and other cards, and a magnetic clip to keep cash in place. Each slot can hold two or more cards.

It's carried in my left front pocket, never in a rear pocket.

Does the phone stay attached to the rest of the wallet really well with that one? I have an attached phone/wallet case that I love, but I think a detachable one would be better, the last one I tried was horrible though, the magnet was just not strong enough, and I had visions of my phone falling to the ground every time I opened it.

It has a very strong magnet. I can grab onto the credit card side and shake rather violently and the phone remains attached.

 

[Cannot_Wait_4Disney]

I have a tri fold. It's probably 15 years old.

 

[Chaoster]

I like the looks of the bifold money clip wallet.

Dh's is deattachable, he's never had a single problem with it and it gets lots of back and forth, and looks sharp; he loves it. https://burkleycase.com/products/ma...Kba9Y3xAl7OmDb4kuaD-Ofs2u8HZuQ5xoC6gQQAvD_BwE

I bought my Wilson leather tri-fold wallet when I started driving. I just replaced it about a month ago. Oh, I started driving in 1988, so 31 years old!

I now have a bi-fold. Holds the bills better than having the bills fold up weird in a tri-fold.

 

[BrianL]

I prefer bi-fold. When I travel I tend to minimize and only carry the removable license holder with a few cards in it.

 

[ChrisFL]

Trifold...just carry a lot of stuff.

There's the new trend of minimalist wallets with the money on the outside and cards on the other...or similar. that makes me paranoid

 

[Floridaman999]

With all the darn membership cards and payment cards I seem to need on a regular basis, I had to go with a tri-fold that had a lot of card slots. If I didn't need all the cards I'd go with something much smaller and easier.

Same here - something very similar and also in my front pocket. Don't like wallets in my back pocket

 

[Cadiewampus]

don't carry a wallet. I have business card holder that just holds all my cards and license. Very rarely carry cash
