Whether I’m walking across town, biking between boroughs, taking the train (or sometimes waiting for the train that never comes and taking an Uber instead), I almost always have a backpack, sling bag, or tote for whatever my day demands.īut what if I want to go bagless? What about cleaning up for a night out or attending a black tie event? In the absence of a big, spacious bag (and at the risk of unbecoming bifold bulges in a suit), I knew I needed a slimmer wallet solution. But is the Ridge Wallet right for you?Īnyone who’s lived in New York City for as long as I have knows to carry only what they need when setting out for the day. It may be, however, your ticket to a new (and lighter) lease on life. More of a cardholder for credit cards, membership cards, and IDs, this is absolutely not your father’s wallet-nor is it a place to park your wad of business cards, papers, coins, or coupons.
In my pursuit to rid myself of bulky, misshapen pockets and avoid any potential back problems caused by uneven sitting, I recognized this was an opportunity to exercise some good old-fashioned spring cleaning-to join the 21st century and lighten my everyday carry load. But as I began to take stock of my personal habits in our increasingly cashless, coin-less (and now, even card-less) society, my beloved leather wallet suddenly seemed cumbersome and impractical. The awkward, overstuffed bulge is all I’ve ever known, and for just as long, I convinced myself it was the only way. As a lifelong bifold carrier, I’ve always stored my wallet in my back pocket.
