I always carry it in my front pocket.

I always carry mine in my pocket
Smart. You could run into a master pickpocketer
Same so much safe both from falling out and/or someone stealing
Easy access, less likely to be stolen, looks more natural, doesn't feel weird when you're sitting, and it wears down less too.
Just grabbed a card holder wallet in tan from The Leather Shop for myself and my dad liked so much, I got him one for Christmas! Beautiful fullgrain saddle leather, hand stitched, and brass rivet. Minimal, durable, functional, and very beautiful for an insane price!
About 30 years ago, I bought on sale in NYC at a COACH store two similar men's wallets, one in calfskin and the other in water buffalo hide. They ended up as polar opposites. The calfskin wallet showed every nick and scrape, hated water, and wore out surprisingly fast considering the price and the name; the water buffalo wallet, however, looks almost brand new, laughs at the weather, and seems nearly indestructible, with nary a mark.
What’s the water Buffalo wallet called like the brand name?
I’ve tried a bunch of wallets in the last year or two. My favorites- Open Sea Topsider Quickdraw (absolute go to), Allett Sport in Leather and Singular leather wallet (high capacity). Schnail Atlas is a great budget choice.
Just found your channel, and I subbed immediately when I noticed there were only two skippable ads in a 12-minute video, and no product placement ads. Very respectable.
I’ve had a minimal wallet from Taylor stitch in navy blue and it’s been a joy having such a small wallet after years of having a bifold.
I'm a left back pocket guy unless I'm in a big city, in crowds of people, then it's in my front pocket. Thanks for showcasing different styles and options. I appreciate the videos you create.
Thank you Peter!
I'm a user of the Forrest & Harold slim clip wallet. Keeps it in the front pocket; changed my life!
I bought the Harrison Australia billfold based on your video with Modest Man. I love it. It’s slim and minimalist, which is what I was looking for. I keep it in my front pocket of my pants unless I’ve got a jacket on, then I put it in the inside chest pocket.
I’ve been carrying a Thread bifold card case for about a year now and I love it. In my front pocket of course
Front left pocket. I used to keep it in my back left, but I was having back problems and I friend suggested keeping it in a front pocket to straighten my spine while I sit. My back has been much better for the past 10 years.
I've looked at numerous reviews and you are one of the few that have this interesting new shape for front pockets. Thanks for your thoroughness...
Hey thanks for the American By Choice site! That's awesome and a resource I will definitely use going forward!
Thank you! Just updated description with the link
Buying a wallet is such a hard thing to do that seems like it should be so simple. There are so many considerations to be made that it can become overwhelming. I eventually went with a very slim bifold from Trask. Love that thing.
Well said!
Just bought from anson and I love it. Yoi are correct, forcing to arrive less cards helps keep things cleaner and easier. The quality is top notch. I went with card holder with cash slot in grey with my initials. I love it!
Great video, super detailed and thorough
I am all about the minimal wallets. Ive had a travelambo slim wallet for about 4 years now. It’s held up great with probably excessive wear and tear from being stuffed with work documents, my normal items and a physical job. I keep it in my front pocket and it’s small enough to forget it’s there.
Front pocket Guy 👍🏾
Been using Distil Union’s Wally micro. Probably my favorite ever and it’s still going strong.
Just recently got a wallet from Rose Anvil, a small US leather company, and absolutely love it. Amazing craftsmanship and quality. Also, I like the design. The card slots show a bit more of the card, so it's really easy to identify the one you want.
@roseanvil popping up on another channel I watch? Nice.
I searched widely for a nice leather minimalist wallet, and I settled on the hand-made Taurus Camp wallet out of Singapore with full-grain Italian vegetable tanned leather. The design is unique and simple. It's a single piece wrapped around itself with minimal stitching, and it has a small flap that covers the tops of the cards (which can help keep dirt off of business cards). It is shaped very ergonomically where a quick thumb movement flips open the cover. There are three pockets with degrees of quick access, and a fourth pocket for folded bills, but it's still a very slim front- or back-pocket wallet made in a range of colors in leather that is soft, smells good, and will develop a beautiful patina.
Nice video! What brand is your first wallet and are they still out of stock?
The Harrison Australia has been my favorite!
loved the S&L wallet design and had to get it
What a Great All round informative video!!👏👏👏
Been using a MiUSA slim leather bifold by Chester Mox for 5 years now. It’s aged so well I can’t imaging switching wallets until this ones lost.
I’ve been collecting wallets for about 2 years. I can say my favorite company without a doubt is Open Seas. The leather quality and craftsmanship is unmatched. Lost Dutchman is also very nice. Bellroy is great.
What are your favorite wallets from each of these brands?
Thanks for the review! You got me interested on the Ekster and I went ahead and purchased one
how is it? when shake the wallet does all the credit cards stay in? and does the one click credit card pull out function properly?
@@saepark4182 It's pretty good but not worth $65 in my opinion. Mostly because it was made it China. However, it is a cool wallet and yes the cards stay in when you shake it. I've had it for a little over a month and I've had no problems with mine except for when I shake it really hard, one card slightly pushes out, but I fixed that by just rotating the order I put my cards in every once in a while. The eject function still works properly too, no issue there!
Manny Wilde cool thanks for the quick response!
I'm really partial to card wallets. After searching for a while, I ended up with Harber London. Highly recommend it, great quality and just an outstanding minimal design. I got the RFID Card Holder, for reference.
I went with a carbon fiber wallet from Ridge and I love it. I switched mainly because I can’t find a wallet like the money clip I have. I use it if I am going out and want to dress up
what is your religion
This is a very good video, thank you very much for making it, btw I use front right pocket.
Axess Front Id Wallet is my go to. Have used it for years and has held up well. Good price point i'd say, and just overall a great wallet worth checking out
I’ve really been enjoying the Herschel front pocket zipper wallet.
It wasn't mentioned in the video but I carry a Ridge Wallet. I've carried it for two years and although it's taken a bit of a beating, it's a very durable wallet. I carry quite a few cards, more than what Jon looks like he carries, so it fits my needs better. Plus, it also blocks RFID signals, being the cautious fella I am. Ridge Wallet's are held together by elastic and the two bits of metal on either side and I am very much intrigued by their model of making a wallet that's "rebuildable." That's also the reason I'm weary of the Ekster brand because there's a lot parts which don't look as easy to replace or swap out.
I have been carrying my cardcase for the past 2y, I barely touch my leather bifold or canvas cardcase as well as it has not broken in yet - which is why I am just on cardcase.
Card case, front right pocket! Also I saw the metrocard, are you here in NYC proper or suburbs!?
My current wallet is from Meermin. Usually $50, I got it free with two belts. Before that, I had one from Lake House Leathers I got for like $11 or something ridiculous like that, and it was great. It patina'd over time, that was cool.
I usually carry mine in the left cargo pocket, or left front pocket. I HATE sitting on it (but then my wallet is quite thick.)
Very interesting. Thanks.
Buying the multiple wallet tip is true. Have had an Amity wallet I got from my brother over 10 years ago and haven't been able to find one like, every so often I look in ebay if there are any of the same model floating around
It's very specific for me, Wallet and keys in my front left pocket with my phone in my front right pocket.
Ive had my Rick and Morty wallet that I got from 5 to 7 years ago and has a lot of wear and tear but still going. Im here because Im considering about getting a new one since i got mine from wish but still held on for quite longer than i expected having a product coming from wish
love my carl friedrik card holder, glad i got it before they raised price.
I recommend open seas leather co wallets, is very minimal, unique and handcrafted. Can choose leather and stitching colors so its very customizable, one piece leather construction with just one seam of thick hand stitching.
Look great but I want a bit of a cheaper wallet don't rly wanna spend £50 on one
Love your clothes and wallets. Very nicely done.
Minimalist two-fold, Johnston-Murphy leather wallet is always in my front pocket.
Left pocket. Back pocket tilts my hips and stresses the old back injury
Enjoy your channel very much.
First... great video.
Second, you ended up making my decision tougher 😅😅😅
Mitchell leather makes my favorite money clip wallet, i carry it in the back pocket most of the time
Thank you for your input , I carry my wallet front pocket . Alsome video.
Would have liked to hear more about the stitching too. But overall great video
I have always had a tri-fold wallet that I carry in my back pocket but, I will occassionally put in my front pocket if I am in a crowded area where pick pockets may potentially be. I do need a new wallet and am considering a bi-fold. My wallet is probably close to 20 years old and it is genuine leather.
I just want to celebrate the return of the kavalier.
Never knew genuine leather was the lowest form of leather. Thanks.
My sister gave me a "genuine leather " wallet when I was in around middle school and now having been out of high-school for several years the wallet is structurally absolutely fine. Still holds cards well and the fold doesn'tseem damaged. It has some wear marks here and there but overall It was a good gift.
Been using it regularly for around 6 years and intermittently for the 2+ before that . Wish I had more.
J. Man, where’s the link to the American by choice? Thanks again for another round up this is one I’m stuck on. After I stopped wearing a chain wallet... don’t judge I’m older and it was a thing, I moved to front right pocket and haven’t looked back. Tried to go vegan for the wallet, but really miss the way leather wore with me and felt like it was becoming unique to my Jean choices and usage. Checking the Satchel and page clip card holder.
Just updated description with the link, good catch!! I had a chain wallet too.... no judgement ever.
Where did you get that picture on your wall from? Is that one of the bonds?
I've been using the same wallet for 10 years so thank you for this. It's one of those things I forget about
If it ain't broke don't fix it 😏
what are your thoughts on the LV pocket organiser?
Just bought the ekster aluminum it looks so good 👍
If you only have 1 card or 2 will they fall out???
@@alanalcala4506 they dont fall even if you have one it has some sort of grapple on the inside that prevents that but i returned it because a have to many cards and they didn't fit
@@alanalcala4506? yes if you get the parliament, it has sleeves for cards as well. the point of the ekster is to have cards in it though
Front right pocket, minimal 4 card + money clip design.
So, the Ekster, is that type of wallet best carried in the front pocket given that it is solid?
Front pocket squad!
Front wallet. I moved it 10 years ago since I noticed it destroyed my posture and the shape of my bottom
I personally like the Grip6 wallet. It is minimalist and high quality.
Hey can you pls review a Michael Andrews x He spoke style suit?
Ashland makes gorgeous wallets
Ashland is #1 without going full custom, IMHO.
Their Fat Herbie is king of back pocket carry, I’ve never seen another wallet load up with 12 cards and bills of cash @ only 1/2” thick.
Large footprint but crazy thin for the capacity.
Capone and Frank the Enforcer are great for more minimalist carry.
I’ve struggles to find a slim wallet that accommodates metal cards....getting them in is easy, getting out, not so much!
Secrid...
Hey guys! check out Ashland leather form Chicago. Also made in the US and they have Shell Cordovan which is a great leather.
The best in the business!
Bosca Italian leather is hard to beat
I've had a awesome ostrich leather bi fold from tacovas. Really impressed with the quality at the 150 price point
I carry my wallet in the best place possible which is an inside pocket of my jacket and with it zipped up it is out of bounds for practically everyone except a really really good pick pocket because no pocket is unpickable some are just a lot harder to pick from
You should see the Serman Brands 3.0, its full grain leather, more compact, solid construction, low price, and for me, better design than all of those in this video.
I LOVE that polo, what's the brand?
Luxury! Ross dress for Less!
Yes! try to get a natural color so it gets a nice patina over time.
Cargo pants, side pocket is the way to go.
i have my wallet from AE. its cowhide leather but it has paint chipping in the corners.. its about the craftsmanship and reputation as well
Their leather is just 👌🏻 would love to match wallet-belt-shoes all in AE. That would be a look!
@@The_Kavalier you’re better off with Archibald London
Taylor Stitch "The Minimalist Wallet" is my choice.
I'm one of those monsters who wears a sling bag, even though I have just a minimal card holder that fits 4 cards. It just works out better with the phone, earbuds, pen, hand sanitizer and emergency masks.
Yes, they put RFID in wallets... now they can identify radio frequencies... Good video overall just the RFID section is mostly wrong and what you meant to say was that wallets have RFID ''blockers'' in them that are kind of useless since cards don't really use RFID for transmission anymore, and those a bit older that still have RFID are protected, so criminals can't skim them, but even if you still have the really old unprotected RFID cards, criminals won't buy expensive equipment and wait days to get that 1 or 2 people who would go booty dance on them so they can scan and get so few benefits that do not even cover the equipment cost. So in a nutshell RFID blocking in wallets is something wallet makers put in just to charge you more money for no real reason.
Always looking for a great complementary magnetic money clip to wear in my opposite (front) pocket from where I carry my Gucci waxed canvas card holder.
what is your religion
My wallet goes in my front left pocket. What, is that confusing?
I always have it in my front left pocket
Didn't even realize till recently that I've had my fossil wallet for 20 plus years
TLDR Front pocket is more secure, and healthier for your back
I carry my wallet in my front, weak-side pocket, keys and phone strong side. 1: sitting on your wallet will elevate one hip higher than the other, leading to hip, back and potentially even shoulder and neck problems. Also, there are significantly few nerve endings on the back of the hips compared to the appendix, so carrying it in the hip pocket leaves you more vulnerable to pickpocketing. In high school, my dad convinced me to make some small purchase while we were out, only for me to almost soil myself when it was missing; he had picked it from my pocket some minutes prior (granted i also wore oversized pants at the time due to growth spurts). In that same vein, the human body is designed to bend forward more often than backward, this can cause your wallet to fall out of your hip pocket during certain movements or tasks, and you're less likely to realize that it has fallen out for the aforementioned reason.
Hey Jon you look very young on that hairstyle!
I have had a bad experience with my slim wallet. If you ever fill it too much, it gets permanently deformed & the sleeves become so loose that you have to keep it packed thick so that your cards don’t fall out.
I once gently tossed this wallet 3 ft away from me & every card went flying out. I have just been too lazy to try to find a good replacement
is nomad leather wallet good
Seeing that digital purchases are a convenience method of purchasing products; and services;I like to have a wallet that is small; and has room for a few cards ; and not much room for paper money.
I don’t need a thick wallet.
Is the Exter wallet able to hold just 1 card
Some great styles, but until my antique leather wallet wears out.....
I need something that doesn’t slide out of my pocket. Maybe something grippy. I’ve lost my wallet at work when changing into scrubs. That’s all I care about.
I leave my wallet in my car unless Ik i need it and that’s worked for me for years now
Where have you been? Hope all is well.
Hi there Jon. Can I recommend a different sort of video?
Front pocket carrier too
What are those jeans at 4:39?
You left out Secrid. Best of the bunch IMO.
Dang! Hadn't heard of them but based on the comments I better get one to check them out
Secrid is my EDC
Front pocket or jacket inside pocket
Hey man so this is off topic, but what are some good companies that sell men’s knitted polo shirts? Like the 1970s style
Hope to hear from you!
