Distil Union bifold was so close to greatness. The squeeze to open is great because those designs will stretch and be unable to hold smaller number of cards but the other features were a miss. The pull tabs would have been fine on their own and the magnetic snap shut is just silly

@JumpingWatermelons 2 года назад

Yes. The wallet industry really is a ripoff. For 5 or 10 years, I've been using nothing but rubber bands (around a stack of cards and some folded cash.... the best rubber bands are the ones that are put around brocolli stems for shipping or in grocery stores - because they are the perfect length, and are wide).. But I'm thinking about finding/making something like you mention, because the cards on the outside eventually get dirty, and if I sweat a lot, the cash gets wet.
