These 5 Minimalist Wallets Will Help You Streamline Your Everyday Carry
You don’t need a running history of every purchase you’ve ever made stashed in your wallet, and these minimalist ones can help.
It took me years to realize that I didn’t have to hold onto every single receipt and shove it into my wallet. And with that realization came the obsession with minimalist wallets. Give me a handful of card slots and a place to store some paper essentials (cash, coffee punch card, health insurance, you know) and I’m golden. We’ve taken the liberty of rounding up some of the best-reviewed and best-selling minimal wallets to keep your things safe while cutting down on your accessories footprint.
