Ridge Wallet Review

The Ridge Wallet changed the game. Two plates of aluminum (or titanium/carbon fiber) held together by elastic. It forces you to declutter.

Durability

You could run this over with a car. The elastic is replaceable, but the body is virtually indestructible. If you break it, they replace it.

Ease of Use

There is a learning curve. Fanning out cards takes practice. But once you get it, bulky leather bifolds feel archaic.

Verdict

It's a status symbol as much as a tool. But if you want a wallet that will literally outlast you, the Ridge is a solid investment.
