I need a new wallet.
The things I'm looking for are:
- bifold
- full grain leather
- slim
- made in the USA (the closer the better)
| Rank | Manufacturer | Name | Price | Made in | Material | Product URL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ashland | Johnny the Fox | $145.00 | Chicago, IL | Full grain leather | https://ashlandleather.com/products/johnny-the-fox-cypress-brown |
| 2 | Rogue Industries | Heritage Wallet | $55.00 | Maine | Genuine cowhide | https://www.rogue-industries.com/collections/american-made-leather-wallets/products/heritage-wallet |
| 3 | Main Street Forge | BIFOLD LEATHER WALLET FOR MEN | $60.00 | Michigan | Full grain leather | https://mainstreetforge.com/products/bifold-leather-wallet-for-men-made-in-usa-mens-bifold-wallets-american-made |
| 4 | The Buffalo Billfold Company | Mens Bifold Leather Wallet | $70.00 | Worthington, MN | Bison leather | https://buffalobillfoldcompany.com/shop/mens-bifold-leather-wallet |
| 5 | Bellroy | Hide & Seek | $90.00 | Unknown | Premium leather | https://bellroy.com/products/hide-and-seek-wallet |
And some justifications for the given ranks:
- It's a great looking wallet made out of great materials, and it's made fairly close to me.
- It looks like very well made and the price is incredibly low, but it's made way over in Maine. I also can't determine whether or not they use full grain leather.
- Aesthetically I think the one in second place is a bit better, though they are a very similar design. They specifically say they use full grain leather but they're also 3rd furthest away.
- Seems well made and it's made from bison leather which sounds cool, but the logo on the front is a little too much for me. They are the closest manufacturer.
- Looks like a nice wallet and it was my first choice before researching the rest of these. It's still very tempting. The company is a B corporation, but I don't know where they're made (the company is Australian) or anything about the leather except that it's "ethically sourced" and "premium".
