Little over 11 years now.

Done.
My wife bought me a wallet for Father’s Day made out of Olivier Vernon’s game worn jersey from the 11/15/20 game off NFL.com

I miss my binder clip but now I have no choice

I’ve had this card wallet for 4 years. Fits 4 cards and 2 bills, folded in thirds. I hate carrying #@#@#@#@ in my pockets, so this is perfect.

My leather bifold wallet is almost 10 years old and looking every bit of it and then some. Time to get something new.

So the decoy cards on the top and bottom are probably 10 years old. The Elastic probably 6 months.

I just used mine the other day with my wife as an example of you get what you pay for (she loves to buy cheap stuff that falls apart instantly).
Mine is a Louis Vuitton bifold I got 18 years ago. Carry it every day and looks the same as the day I got it.

Wow, surprised how almost everyone in this thread uses some sort of folding wallets, I haven't used one of them since my freshman year in college.

Summer after that I got a slim leather one, 3 levels of cards that could hold about 9-10 total, a center section that could hold more, and then a money clip on the back.

Used that one for 17 years and then maybe 2 years ago I got one of the wallets from Carved.com. Very slim metal framed wallet with unique wood/resin designs that can hold 4-5 cards and has a rubber band for some cash. I also highly recommend their phone cases too, they do cost more than most cases, but you get a really cool and unique case and they're great quality, love mine.

I don't use cash for almost anything and not like I need to carry more than 4 or 5 cards anyways (license, insurance, couple credit cards) so it's so much easier to carry than bulky wallets, just slips into my front pocket like it's not even there.

I use something similar to this. Holds my license, insurance card, a couple of credit cards, and a little cash.

I got the black and red Faragamo wallet about 10 years ago. Carry it every day and still looks new.

Nice bump. I have a cheap wallet that has lasted around 30 years. It is one of those old wallets that closed with velcro. The velcro is mostly gone but there is still enough that it works.

I have a Ridge style wallet. Love it. Sleek, sophisticated.

Just like 49erRCcollector.

I picked up a bifold last year at the Charleston market that matches the black/brown leather in my truck. Well made and good price.

I had the same one for 20 years or so and upgraded to one of those metal fancy ones that spring loads your credit cards and pops them out at the push of a button. Used that for a couple years and then got a phone case that has a spot that holds 4 credit cards (Drivers License, Paypal card, Debit card, and fishing license) which is all I need. I can count on 1 hand how many times I've had cash on me in the last 5 years.

I used to get a new wallet every couple years for Christmas from my MIL.

Now that she’s dead to us, I don’t get one anymore.

Have the Ridge as well. Never thought I'd like it, but its perfect. Don't need 95% of the garbage I previously carried around with me in my George Costanza wallet.

Just got rid of my 18 year old wallet. I replaced it with a wallet that still has too much stuff and barely closes.
