      Evan Solomon Yeah I’m really glad I didn’t buy the real one. I overestimated the ease in which you can take the cards out, but at 2:49 you see how flimsy it is. Horrible in some situations. I’d have to re-evaluate my life after a long stare in the mirror if I had paid 100 bucks this. I love the small footprint though.

    no easy access to cards - pulling out a bulk amount then "thumbing" through them with a chance of spilling, just did not appeal to me. Looks solid otherwise.

    Compared to a traditional wallet, it has less card capacity, less money capacity, can't hold business cards, can't have money stored unfolded for easy access (in fact needs 3 folds) can't be sat on even temporarily, has sharp edges which will wear clothes, and has moving parts which require maintenance. It's the most novelty toy trash product design I've ever seen

    • @BuckFush08
      @BuckFush08 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I guess everyone has their own opinions... I've had my black titanium Ridge Wallet for over a year, and love it so much, i just ordered another one in a different finish.
      It easily holds up to ten or eleven cards. I don't carry much cash, if any at all. For the few times I do carry cash, the strap has worked great, but I ordered my new Ridge wallet with the money clip.
      I can't stand your standard, leather bulky wallet, and I don't keep my wallet in my back pocket, I keep it in my front pocket.
      You may not like how this wallet works, but it is not a gimmick or a toy! I've used it for over a year, and it's worked great! (By the way... what moving parts does it have? It doesn't have ANY moving parts!)

      @sinappanis 6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      As far as this wallet I'm not a big fan of it but I have to point out many of your points are a bit silly and false.
      If you have more than 12 cards in your wallet you probably have cards you don't need The cash storage is arguably easier to access then a traditional wallet as you have to actually open a normal wallet to access your cash. You shouldn't be sitting on any wallet as it has been proven to cause back issues, especially the one you apparently carry that has 12+ cards and business cards which must be 2 inches thick. the edges are less sharp then your average keys which most of us carry in our pocket or a pocket knife. As for moving parts it doesn't have moving parts just bands that stretch and if you consider that a moving part then I guess the fold on a traditional wallet is also a moving part.
      The only point I can really concede is the lack of business card storage but then again I don't carry those in my wallet as I don't want a big wallet. Which is the whole point of these types of wallets. They are meant to get rid of the clutter in our wallets and not take up a lot of space. Personally I don't care for a wallet made of hard material and I also don't think this wallet has great access to the cards inside it. Those are the main reason I'm not interested.
