The SLIDE wallet by Stitch & Locke is a Kickstarter project for a wallet that is both eco-friendly and animal-free.

Bellroy’s Passport Sleeve Wallet
I wish I'd known about the Bellroy Passport Sleeve Wallet before the cruise I went on recently. A wallet that can hold my passport, boarding pass, credit cards, and a tiny pen would have been tremendously helpful at the time. Alas, I only found out about it this morning, but perhaps a Tools & Toys reader might find it useful for an…
The Park Sloper
A handcrafted combination leather wallet + notebook cover.
Lemon Wallet for iPhone
Apple's Passbook for iOS is a great concept, but one that – in my opinion – has never really lived up to its full potential. Luckily, a third-party app called Lemon Wallet has stepped up to the plate, offering features you won't find in Passbook. Lemon Wallet allows you to store credit cards, insurance cards, loyalty cards, and receipts by snapping photos…
ChargeCard
There are a surprising number of awesome credit card-shaped iPhone accessories. One of my longtime favorites has been the GoGoStand, but the ChargeCard looks to be another top contender. As you can see in the image above, it has a Lightning connector on one side and a rubberized USB connector that can be folded out from the middle section. I don't know…
CINCH Minimalist Wallet
There's a bit of a "minimalist wallet" trend going around these days, and a lot of them are starting out as Kickstarter projects. My current wallet, the Supr Slim, actually falls into this category but a new Kickstarter wallet called CINCH aims to be the top contender. Like the Supr Slim, the CINCH is comprised of an elastic band to hold your…

Daniel Kane, the guy behind these awesome Kickstarter sunglasses is back, with a front-pocket wallet that looks just great.

The TGT Wallet
We've featured a lot of minimal wallets here on T&T, but the TGT might be the smallest of the lot. TGT is actually a line of wallets, and all of them are minimal and good-looking. The 1.0 is a elastic band designed to keep your cards and cash nice and neat, while the 2.0 adds a pocket made of "fine Italian leather."…
DODOcase Durables iPhone 5 Wallet
With a sage waxed duck canvas exterior and orange-poppy cotton interior, this wallet is made to impress. The center is designed to hold Apple's new, taller, iPhone 5, with a pocket on either side for cards, cash or whatever else you need with you. While I'm not a fan of some iPhone wallets, I really like this, as it's not a case…

If minimal rubber wallets aren't your thing, maybe this could be. The Slim wallet is a Kickstarter project determined to be the slimmest wallet ever. Made from elastic instead of the more traditional leather, the Slim promises never to stretch out over time. Available in six colors, there's a design for everyone. Starting at just $25, it's an affordable option, too. Thanks…
The Minimal Rubber Wallet
I got an email from a reader the other day asking me what I used as a wallet. This gentleman is in the market, and wanted to know if I had any input. I sent him the above photo. For several years, I used some wallet I bought at Target for like $12. It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. Several weeks…

Bellroy’s Note Sleeve Wallet
The folks at Bellroy were kind enough to lend me one of their Note Sleeve wallets for a while. It's the first bifold wallet I've used in over a decade and I like it. Most traditional wallets are plain and lifeless. They have the expected layout for your cards and a spot for your cash and receipts. The Note Sleeve has these…
