The Mighty Wallet is made from Tyvek, a tear-resistant, water-resistant plastic that feels just like paper. This results in a wallet that will pretty much take as much abuse as you can give it. I’ve had mine for over a year now and it has yet to show any signs of failure. Mighty Wallets come in a multitude of printed graphics and colors, and are recyclable.

– Printed with SGS Certified Environmentally Friendly Ink.
– 100% recyclable packaging made from recycled PET plastic.
– 2 interior pockets, 2 credit card pockets (holds approx 16 cards) and 2 quick access business card pockets.
– 8 w x 3.25 h x .125 d

Beign the design and computer nerd I am, I have the Dot Matrix wallet, and and have got my eyes on the new Color Bar design for my next one (if my first one ever falls apart that is).

This is sort of a neat gadget. It’s a card that fits in your purse or wallet (it’s just a bit thicker than a credit card) and when you need light, you just push the bulb out and it lights up, while the base of the card acts as a stand. It might be a nice little gift as a stocking stuffer.

* Small lightbulb folds flat for storing your wallet
* Flip up for light
* Batteries included

The largest size of these cork cases would be perfect as a folio while the smaller sizes would do well to organize various items in your briefcase or handbag.

Sustainable cork cases lined with recycled billboard comes in 3 sizes: a wallet, a clutch and a handbag. Crafted from 100% recycled billboards & sustainable cork, this die cut case collection is inspired by the simplicity of traditional envelopes. The small and medium case sizes can fit easily into a small clutch or bag as the largest case size suggests you leave your handbag at home.

Medium: $27.00 (5″ H x 9″ W)
Large: $36.00 (8 1/2″ H x 12″ W)

I kind of love this pouch and coin purse (note: they’re not to scale in relation to each other.)

(another note: the Sorry Zipper Pouch reminds me of Adam McEwen’s Untitled (Sorry) and Untitled (Closed), 2005 tiny signs…which I was tempted to post but didn’t for fear of offending some of your sensibilities.)

Now, how weird would it be if a man, woman and child were seated next to each other and they happened to each have these passport covers?

While I’ve never been particularly worried about RFID credit-card fraud, it’s nice to know that this would stop it.

Thin and lightweight, this money-clip wallet is made from leather-trimmed pliable stainless-steel cloth typically used in industrial applications. The material prevents credit-card fraud by blocking communication by unauthorized RFID readers. It has a slot for credit cards and a magnetic clip for currency. Made of stainless-steel fabric, leather trim, and neodymium magnets.

Custom manufactured to be exactly the right size for your cash and credit cards, this rubber band will minimize bulk and prevent pick-pockets (the rubber creates resistance, so you’d feel it being lifted).

Money-band is the original rubber band wallet replacement. More versatile and slimmer than a money clip. Many times slimmer and more ergonomically correct than your George Costanza hip-displacing leather variety.
If you’re tired of rolling with a junk-filled hunk of leather, then Money-band is the way to simplify and keep a tight hold on your cash and cards.

Not a bad little accessory for your outfit…don’t worry, you’re cool enough to pull it off.

“Taking our cue from antique leather accessories and imbuing them with a modern purpose, the YMYL Holster is inspired by ‘hard-boiled’ detective
fiction and Black Mask comics of the 20’s and 30’s. It is designed for packing beats… but as well as your iPod, it will also accommodate your phone, passport, cards, cash, lipstick, and other travel essentials.”

Yesterday I was walking home after a run and a innocuous looking pre-teen girl holding a camera came up to me, followed by her father by a watchful 10 paces. She was working on a school project and wanted to know if I could help her. So she points the camera at me and handed me the mic and then fired away.

“What makes you happy?” she asked. After stammering and thinking for probably 20 seconds (which is a long time when you think about it) I rambled about how being with friends and family makes me happy.

What a sweet, innocent little school project to make adults question their whole existence.

Anyway, this wallet, although it has a jaded view on happiness, reminded me of that little moment. It may just make you think of what makes you happy the next time you take out your credit card.

For anyone that’s dropped their wallet in a puddle or large body of water (yes, it happens sometimes), something like this makes a whole lot of sense.

“It’s a blend of flexible and semi-flexible polymers…that creates an amazingly durable, yet flexible and water resistant wallet. It’s packed with a bunch of really clever features…and has a pretty damn smart ‘Smart Pocket’ that you can use to store all these little things that you carry around…”

Colors: Chocolate, Gray, Orange, White

Are you in despair? Can’t find the perfect wallet? This might come close if it doesn’t hit the nail right on the head. Sure, the name’s a bit worrisome, but I like the red insides and the slight dot detail. It’s made of 100% genuine leather with a microfiber-lined bill pocket and lots of room for stuff. They arrive on your doorstep in a little (yet manly) metal case.

Available in Brown/Tan Nubuck, Tan Nubuck/Black, and Black/Red (shown).

Zippered leather pouch with laser etched geometric pattern can be used as a wallet, cosmetic case, or mini clutch.
