Unimpressed. Code 118 is better and way cheaper, and Eskter walters are better then ridge, my fave is Code 118. The cards I mentioned have a push button where the cards pop out. The ridge you have to push that slit, and fight with the cards to get them out. I ended up returning this waller.

Did not met my expectation. Price is too high. They shoukd add a place to store cash.

It started out ok, u til the screws started falling out.

Very strong and great quality, just the price not so great.

This is just my personal opinion. This wallet is useless to me. It does not work like it does in the commercial ad. You spend a lot of money and have to put in effort to get the cards out. I opted in for a better minimalistic wallet Groove Life which is the best wallet I’ve ever owned.

For the credit card it ok even though it can a difficult to take the card out and the cash was my biggest issue you can have it pregnancies. Think the price is too much for what you’re getting

Like most, I’ve used a wallet since I was a teenager. Bi-folds, tri-folds, and even money clips, I used them all. A couple of years ago I received a leather wallet for Christmas that served its purpose and even had RFID (radio frequency identification) blocking. However, I was getting annoyed with the wallet because my cards (debit, credit, and membership cards) would fall out if I titled my wallet sideways. It’s frustrating when it happens while you’re at the self-checkout with a long line waiting. I had seen a few ads about the Ridge Wallet, and I researched them to see why they were so celebrated. I would tell myself, “I’ll get around to getting one.” Well, I finally got one and it’s AMAZING! It’s a minimalist design that does so much. The Ridge Wallet forces you to carry what you NEED in it. I was never the type to use my wallet as a “briefcase” but I was guilty of having mystery phone numbers on little pieces of paper or business cards that I had no use for. The Ridge Wallet’s design makes you reevaluate what you need to be carrying in it. I went from carrying 12 cards in my leather wallet to carrying six cards in my Ridge Wallet. Gone were the stamp reward cards for a yogurt shop that was no longer in business, or the flimsy business cards that carried over from a previous wallet. I have the necessary cards (license, credit, debit, insurance, etc) in it. It looks cool. My Ridge Wallet is gunmetal grey and it suits me perfectly. Again, the minimal design does so much. No more bulk in my pocket. There have been times when I thought I forgot my Ridge Wallet because it’s so light. “Where do I put my cash?” you might ask. Well, there’s a cash strap built into the wallet. Fold up your cash and slide it into the strap. And it’s easy to remove for those times when you may have to tip the valet or what have you. The design of this Ridge Wallet is made to last. If it gets wet, just wipe it off with a paper towel, if you drop it, it won’t snap or break. And it has RFID protection. I won’t pretend that I know whether or not it’s saved my debit card information from being boosted but it’s nice to know that it’s there, right? If you were like me and have been on the fence regarding getting a Ridge Wallet, then I hope my review has pushed you towards getting one. I truly believe that you will wonder how we managed with ‘primitive’ wallets until the Ridge Wallet.

Poorly constructed and not user friendly. This is a rip off

Didn’t like it returned it. Couldn’t get 10 cards in it. No instruction for what the screw driver is for?

PROS + Small form factor, about the width and length of a credit card + Can fit up to 12 standard cards while still staying relatively small + Anodized aluminum plating feels great & durable, with RFID blocking capabilities + Very strong elastic strap holding plates together and for the cash strap on the back + Included Torx Driver for removable screws that can be used to replace strap CONS - Cards can be a bit hard to get out or easily get the card to you need without needing to pull all cards out SO-SO * Not for folks who need to carry around more than cards and cash in their wallet (e.g. coins, tickets, etc.) THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT The Ridge Wallet wears minimalism on its sleeve, and is all the better for it. Instead of trying to find a new way to create a wallet that allows you to hold more and more, The Ridge Wallet encourages you to downsize to only the essentials. You get the ability to hold up to 12 standard sized cards, although using as few as possible will limit the depth of the wallet, but even with the full 12 it is still remarkably thin. Other than the card slot, which sandwiches the cards between two anodized aluminum plates, you get a cash strap on the back (which can be replaced with a money clip) that allows you to place folded-up cash on the back. And that is it. There are no pouches, or slots, to hold things like receipts or coins. This is really a wallet strictly for the essentials, some cash, and your essential cards. Personally, I love this level of minimalism as I’m sure most people will find, we often have more in our wallets than we really need. 12 cards left plenty of room for my credit cards, license, insurance cards, and even a few loyalty cards I keep on hand. Even with this, I could probably trim back a few cards I really don’t need to carry around with me. Likewise, while cash is becoming less prevalent, it is still nice to have a cash strap to carry around some cash as well. The strap itself felt very secure, and I never had any issues with money slipping or getting pulled out of the strap. Likewise, once the cards are in the wallet between the two plates, they feel very secure, with no movement at all when secured correctly. In fact, this actually leads me into one of the few cons with this wallet after using it for several days, which is that the cards can actually be a bit tricky to get out of the wallet easily. Unlike a traditional wallet, where you have distinct slots for each card and you can pull out the one you need, with The Ridge Wallet all of the cards are crammed together in the slot between the plates. So, if you need a card, you need to push them out with your finger using the indent on the back of the wallet, which will push all of the cards out, and then you can fan them with your other hand and pull the card you need out. This system sounds easy enough, but in reality can be a bit tricky, as the amount of pressure needed to keep the cards secure, also tends to fight against you when trying to extract a specific card. More often than not, I often found I pulled out more cards than I needed on accident, as the one I tried to grab and pull would bring others along with it, especially if that card was a few cards deep in the stack. The Ridge Wallet recommends placing your high-traffic cards on the top or bottom for easy access, which does help, but once you need any card deeper than that, you will need to be more careful extracting them. Practice will make perfect I’m sure, but so far, getting out something like my license when needed does feel a bit more complicated than I was used to with a more traditional wallet. This all being said, what you lose in convenience you gain in size, build quality, and durability. The Ridge Wallet is very small (about the size of a credit card) and is made of a very nice feeling anodized aluminum that is scratch-resistant and feels it. Each plate feels well constructed and durable, with a very sturdy quality. Additionally, you get the ability to block RFID to prevent wireless theft, which I think is a great feature for added security. Likewise, because of the small size, you can easily fit the wallet in your front pocket, which can also make it feel more secure, although you’ll want to be careful you don’t scratch-up anything else in your pocket if you do, given the metal plates on the outside. Overall, I really like The Ridge Wallet for what it is. If you are after wallet minimalism, then this is a solid, good looking, and durable choice. Just be aware that it will often mean downsizing your current traditional wallet, and that the ability to quickly access cards will take a bit of practice.

I returned it. Over priced found it for a fraction of the price.

I'm not a fan of chiropractors- different story for another day- BUT, my first exposure to the field years ago did result in my not having carried a "wallet" for well over 15 years. Prior to this, I carried the standard issue, Father's Day gift leather trifold wallet that holds WAY TOO MUCH. That was the point of the chiropractor- he blamed that big bulging wallet, always carried in my right rear pocket, for at least part of my back pain & general issues that needed "adjusted". Whether I believe that or not, the few weeks of not carrying a wallet lead to me to a couple realizations: I don't need to carry every credit card, business card, receipt, etc. that I've ever collected! Fast forward 15 years, and all of this is SO MUCH more true. 2 cards and my drivers license are pretty much all I ever carry- in a hatch on the back of my phone... again, different review for another day. I tested The Ridge Wallet primarily as a gift for my son who, despite being a child of the 2000's, also has the inch and a half thick leather tri-fold wallet courtesy of some past girlfriend. I'm looking to move him into the 21st century with The Ridge Wallet's key selling points: - can carry up to 12 cards (but why?) - RFID protection- important & likely only to become moreso - well-built metal case & design - attached cash strap (which can be swapped with a clip, if desired) - easy in/out design for the cards you carry It's just so simple, it's awesome!!

I'm never going back to a traditional wallet. I had a bifold and I was happy enough with it, but I switched to putting my wallet in my front pocket because my back started hurting with it in my back pocket. But the normal sized wallet just felt huge in my front pocket. The space savings was obvious in just putting everything in the Ridge Wallet. An inch isn't that big, but the Ridge Walllet is about an inch smaller in both width and height than my previous wallet. I always felt my wallet before, but the Ridge Wallet has just disappeared. The best part is that in my jeans and shorts, you could see the corner of my old wallet. And in certain of my shorts the wallet was actually almost as wide as the pocket. So it was very noticeable at all times. Now I really don't notice anything. Additionally, it's really cool looking. It seems very durable and is definitely more durable than my last wallet. That one was leather and anything scuffed and scratched it. This has no marks so far and it looks really cool. It's light and easy to use. Just push on the cutout and the cards pop out. They recommended putting your most used cards in the front and back, and I'd agree. The cards also slide right back in very easily. The cash strap is tight and I ahve a few bills and even put my license in there for quicker access. None of it moves. I'm very happy with this Ridge Wallet and would recommend it to anyone.

Not what i expected so im returning back to best buy.

I actually bought one of these a few years ago and it's great. I just have one with the cash clip instead of the strap and it is titanium instead of aluminum but I think that isn't such a big deal in my honest opinion. That being said you get inside the box: the wallet, a screw driver and the booklets and a sticker. I guess the screwdriver is to take the back plate off if you ever want to change to a clip instead of the cash strap since this is the version with the cash strap. They both have pros and cons. I feel like with the cash strap you can hold more quality of dollar bills while the clip I find the bills to be more secure in but you can't hold as many. As far as the wallet goes it's sturdy and they are built to last. My original one is like 3 years old and banged up but the elastic still holds. Not like new but it works fine. They say you should only carry like a maximum of like 12 cards and while I have held more than 12 at times I feel like no more than 7-9 is ideal in terms of long term durability.

Wow, the Ridge is minimalist. I don't hate it but it takes a change in mentality. Most guys are used to a filing cabinet in their back pocket. You have to take the hard look and decide if that's necessary. You can really reduce everything to mostly be in this wallet. It holds 12 cards! At max I needed 7 cards. It's super lite and compact. Ideally this goes in your front pocket for safety. I needed this to still be in my back pocket due to keys and phone. This was such a relief on my back than I constantly panicked that my wallet had fallen out. It is very sturdy and the expansion is controlled by elastic bands. I liked that this had built in RFID blocking. Where this didn't fit into my mentality is when I'd be given restaurant cards that are larger than credit cards, small grocery cards, and paper insurance cards. I think that there are ways to get around these cases but that's where the mentality kicks in. For every day typical use this was amazing. I think this product does everything as advertised. I would recommend this on the caveat that you have to be ready to not carry everything you need all the time. It's hard to beat a life time warranty on something that gets the job done.
