    Got mine early on for $45. Before it even got to me, they'd raised the price to $125. No way I would have pulled the trigger at that price, but now that I've actually used it I realize I would have been missing out. Well worth the $125. This is the wallet I've been searching for my entire life. It's the kind of wallet that makes other wallets jealous!

    As has been said, "the Proof Wallet is a pricey boy!" I suspect the anticipated costs of financing their warranty are a significant part of the quoted price. However, I collect wallets; I always aim to buy American made; and I always try to support veteran owned and veteran supportive companies. Hence my new Proof wallet is to be delivered to my front door this Friday on 4 October 2024. Marine X, you are persuasive! 😃

    I’ve been waiting for a proper review on this piece. It looks fantastic. I do wish the cards would fan for easier picking. Ridge wallets destroy my cards. I’m going to pick this one up on looks alone. A better way to carry cash is always a plus.

    I've had a couple of trayvax wallets and carrying a Groove Life right now. I like the small footprint on all if them, but they are limiting. If I need to carry cash with the trayvax, I have to give something up in the card section. With the groove life, I am severely limited with the number of cards...this looks like something that will give me everything I want, ability to carry cash when I want to, and all the cards that I want ( I don't have more than 25). Thanks for this Devil Dog!

    I carry a TI2Design titanium money clip. I carry mainly cards, no cash. I didnt buy the titanium for the insta. Titanium has a memory bend. No matter if Im carrying 5 cards or 15, it'll spring back into place. If im going to buy something for life I want it to last for life. My money clip has the etch design that he doesnt make anymore.

    125 bucks is nothing….I got 300 to 500 dollar shell cordovan wallets. I’ll be honest I’m liking this wallet for the minimalist form factor,This is definitely on the list of pick ups for me and I’ll be grabbing 1 or 2 this year

    It's kills me that no company can get a wallet exactly right. Had they added a quick access outside on both sides as an option, THAT would be the winner. Basically the new ridge plus this...

    I bought a replica of a Chanel brooch for $20 to compare materials etc. The real brooch cost $800 and was made of the exact same materials - brass, synthetic pearls, glass. The other one is a $40 one kislux Backpack Replica - also works for Compare - I can't find any difference and still use it for the gym

    I currently have the Distil Union Wally Micro wallet and it is very similar in the way it operates with one downfall. the elastic is junk on them. It is my favorite wallet, but this actually looks promising with the thicker elastic band. The price is a little hard to swallow but it might be worth a try.

    That is a mighty fine wallet Sir, It’s a form factor that I fancy. I have a Trayvax Accent with a Black leather Ridge wallet money band wrapped around. It works in a similar fashion but I can only hold 9 cards and 7 bills. When I need to carry more I switch to a Vice Hardware F1 Aluminum wallet which is fairly minimalistic. This proof wallet is Money (Good to Go).🎉

    @superartist271 2 місяці тому +1

    Nice looking and the Craftsmanship from Veteran companies is always top-notch no doubt (worked with vets and they have a lot of attention to detail). The problem still exists though, you are going to scratch the f out of these cards over a short period of time. And, the elastic is going to wear out. As someone who’s used the smasher sandwich style wallets, and pop-up wallets (you have to wade through more knockoffs and fakes these days than ever) billfolds trifolds minimalists etc.… I can tell you that just about all of them scratch and damage your cards over a short period of time. Once you get into the metal cards it’s very annoying to scratch those cause they are very nice. There are some on the market that do not scratch of cards though….

    I like the look and craftsmanship. What I don’t like is that it pulls out all of the cards at once. I have to remove them all from the wallet and flip through to get the one I need at that moment. Same issue I had with the Ridge wallet. I wanted to like this one but just can’t.

    I have an ekster wallet, and it was much cheaper and way better than this. That design doesn't fan the cards out, which makes it a giant pain to get the card you want without taking everything out. I don't see anyone buying this. Especially at that price.

    • @MarineX
      @MarineX  2 місяці тому +1

      Ekster is cool in it's own right. But it's bulky, stiff, and very limited in the number of cards you can carry. I've talked to the owner since my video. A lot of people are snatching this up

Saying they were gifted a wallet during time periods where the company never even existed and no wallets were even available to be purchased. Someone said the wallet got buried with their grandpa after he died, again several months before any of our wallets were even on the market yet. Lol Solid source of daily entertainment.
