Looking for a new wallet

My brother in law made me this one out of kydex. Cards on one side, cash and business cards on the other. Fits easily in a front pocket. I’ve been using it for around two years now.
 
Gave my son a carbon fiber front pocket number with an Apple tag.
That just saved his butt bcs he dropped it outside the post office - went back, was still there in the grass …
Prompted me to get our guys looking for these as safety awards - looking for one with the external money clips since cash does not slide in/out like cards do …
 
My wallet is a thick rubber band doubled wound around 10 cards (cc, DL, insurance, AAA, etc.) with bills folded over the top. Been that way for 20 years and I keep it in my front left pocket. Bands last about 3-4 months.

Are you Italian ?

They like to use a thick rubber band used for stocks of broccoli.
 
I received a Ridge as a gift from my then girlfriend about 6 years ago. Best wallet ever, plan on using it until the elastic band rots away then Ill request another from her. Prior to that I used a rubber band due to back pocket wallets causing sciatica even when I was quite young.
 
I’m 54 and I think I have only had 3 or 4 different wallets in my lifetime! The one I have now I got in 1997! I remember it well because it was a gift from my first wife on my first birthday after we met. Her son was 5 years old at the time and he was there when she gave me the wrapped present with the wallet inside and just before I opened it he blurted out “it’s a wallet!” 🤣 To this day we still laugh about this!
 
I have a Big Skinny World Nylon you can get it in leather and both versions with RFID blocking. Mine is wearing out and I need a new one. The slots have enough space that you can double up cards if needed. I got mine at the NY Auto show probably over 10 years ago.

I might need to check some of the others just because but $35 every 10 years is workable.
