Original review below.So i got one of these from Ridge website and it was such better. Elastic didn't feel as flimsy. Not sure why.Updated to 5 stars because the product (from ridge website) is fantastic.So I'm not into minimalist wallets. But, my very high quality, handmade, exquisite leather wallet took a bath in chemicals when a faulty machine leaked on a job site. With some care, its fine. But I was looking for something that wasn't leather, that would dry quickly if that happened again. And something durable. Leather wallets worn in back pocket, tend to bend cards.I like that its metal and they include replacement screws, although i have to assume it's easy to loose screws or why include extra.The elastic for the cash strap seems flimsy.I don't often carry cash, so thats not a huge deal breaker. But, I looked up replacements for the strap on Ridge website and since they are available to buy, I'm a little nervous that they may not be part of wallets warranty... I'd have to check with Ridge about that. But if I lay the wallet down on the cash strap to avoid scratching the metal of the wallet, its pretty obvious that the metal on the cash strap will wear off the finish quick.The problem with Ridge is the same i see with Yeti. Quality products but prices that double competitors for basically the exact same thing. The metal construction seems high quality, but the elastic seems pretty thin.The cash strap elastic feels so flimsy.I rarely ever carry cash. But when I do, I don't want to loose it. And I question how well that will hold up.Additionally, for the money, I'd expect heavier duty elastic. This looks and feels like it will wear very quickly.Overall this is the third minimalist wallet I've tried. One was $20, one $120 and this was $70... the $120 Proof wallet felt the most heavy duty, lighter, and all around best of the 3... but it is half leather, and thicker than the ridge.In the end, I went with Ridge. But, even at $70... I feel this wallet is a bit overpriced.Ver másVer menos
