I have had one of their wallets for YEARS. Great in every way.
They may be good, but in comparison to the Big Skinny, almost any traditional wallet is too fat. My wallet with 5 cards and cash is probably 1/2 to less than 1/2 the size of a regular wallet that is empty.I used to go through a wallet in 2 years max.

Yes. That is what I love about Big Skinny.They may be good, but in comparison to the Big Skinny, almost any traditional wallet is too fat. My wallet with 5 cards and cash is probably 1/2 to less than 1/2 the size of a regular wallet that is empty.
Once you have tasted that level of thinness, it is very hard to go back to traditionally made fat wallets. The Big Skinny is a traditional design, so it doesn't require changing the way one organizes/uses their wallet, unlike most other thin wallet designs.
I had one of these for years, my father in law didn't like it. I loved it. I'm using a back pocket wallet in the front now and it just doesn't work as well.If you haven't bought yet, I recommend Rogue Expedition Front Pocket Wallet - https://www.rogue-industries.com/collections/all/products/rogue-expedition-front-pocket-wallet .
My wife bought me one 10 years ago and it looks almost brand new after 10 years of daily use. Worth the $$.
Ive had a couple of wallets from Big Skinny for years. One nylon and one in leather. Absolutely no problems with either one.Thanks for the suggestions! A few comments & questions......
I like the design but a question about the construction. In the pictures on the website the leather doesn't look very taut, are their wallets at all structured/stiff?
Thanks for the reminder about Saddleback, I've looked at their site in the past. Their medium bifold would be a match.
Nice wallet, just personally not keen on the zipper
JoF is a definite contender, thanks! Some of the color combos are cool....I like the uniqueness.
Very nice! I like the curved design for front pocket carry, the bison Rogue is a contender.
A question for users of the Ridge. There are hundreds of similar clone versions on Amazon at a fraction of the price, does going with the Ridge get you something other than the brand? I like the minimalist concept but I don't know if it would work for me given I always have a couple of extra business cards in my wallet and like a spot to keep receipts.
Does it fly?Just went minimalist with the Akeeni XSTO. Machined aluminum. Designed and made by an ex-aircraft engineer in California.

The look is not for everyone but this may be the best wallet I've ever owned. Even the 10 card version I bought is compact and cash/cards are secure but easily accessible.
