Behold design simplicity and functionality in a small package meant for your pocket… I’m a front-pocket wallet guy, but I was drawn to this wonderfully done video as well as the idea of having a hidden pocket for big bills. Maybe the time has come to give the ass-pocket wallet another try.

The William Wallet is all the rage right now with internet hipsters. Basically, it’s two pieces of powder coated aluminum tied together with some poly cord. Typically, I would write off a wallet such as this… But it’s being offered by Wintercheck and I love lots of stuff they do. So, who knows?

Risk your $30 here.

Here’s an interesting money clip alternative. It’s a super strong spring that’s acted through a pair of sliding levers that give you leverage when it’s time to access your cash. They are spendy though. Get yours at Nordstrom.

I’m more of a leather guy myself, but for those of you into the latest and greatest materials and concepts, the Flipside is all the rage at the moment. Essentially, it’s a plastic vault for your pocket.

A few months ago, I posted a review of my favorite wallet – The Slimmy. For those in the cold, the Slimmy is a front-pocket wallet that will change your life by eliminating the clutter of your every day carry package. Essentially, the slimmy is a miniature file folder that is optimized to carry a few business cards, a few credit cards, and your ID. That’s it. And it all seems simple enough – right? How could such a rudimentary idea change your life?

Well, now is your chance to find out. The Gear Journal is teaming up with Koyono Co. in an effort to spread the word and the Slimmy. The beneficiary? You.
