The best clone of the ridge is the rossm they even do a lot of the same models but at least a third of the price but most at a quarter of the price of the ridge and the only difference is the lack of a lifetime warranty which does not mean much as the peice most likely to fail is not covered by the warranty and neither is the finish because it doesn't include wear and tear So the warranty is not worth the paper it's printed on unless you get one that was badly manufactured and fall apart within a few weeks which is highly unlikely
I’ve always said you always get what you pay for. I’ll always stand by that. Yes you can buy multiple cheap knock off ones but I’d rather just bite the bullet and get a good one. Just my opinion I love The Ridge wallet and will always carry one.
I agree you get what you pay for. After owning the ridge wallet and using it for months, I personally still think it is extremely overpriced. The quality is decent but not worth anywhere near the asking price. I would not recommend it to people unless they feel like burning money.
@@EverythingPracticalor people should wait for sales on these, i also got titanium wallet from ridge and my initial feel was similar to yours, it arrived with screwdriver that was already weared out and airtag clip that i had to swap .... luckily i noticed the broken screwdriver just in time before i destroyed the screws 😀 yes the price when off sale is monstrous ... but its all about profit margins , if rossm or mountain voyage will sell these 10 dollar wallets for 50 bucks they still make good profit anyway , and i would rather prefer ridge when on sale than other similar wallets , im now considering aviator wallet though because of bigger and better accesible coin tray and ability to change capacity of cards , but all of these wallets suffers from one problem that i hate and its that bills are exposed so older bills might tear more quickly when they are double folded and are not covered inside wallet, especially when you carry the wallet inside the backpack and it moves in it with other stuff around
How does everyone feel about the money being on the outside of the wallet? I’m worried that may attract the wrong attention. I just ordered it for my husband.
Pretty good 20% off coupon code, not be doing research I think it's going to be a good fit, but I completely agree with you as far as the keychain goes, I wanted to get one but there's no way in hell I'm spending that much money, I wouldn't spend more than $20 on it.
Just buy it at aliexpress for 6bucks, ridge also gets them for an even cheaper price from china and make a ton of money selling it for 20times more as they paid for it. Its called marketing and all those youtube videos help them to get known
Is it just me or does this look absolutely unusable? Im 100% sure at some point when im in a rush getting my bus pass out im going to press something too hard and explode my wallet all around me. Its a disaster waiting to happen!
@@EverythingPractical I was in a bar in Hackney London, not the nicest area, and I guy I didn’t know came up and said move that wallet or it will be stolen, never done it again, hope you get away with it 👍
Wallets been in my back pocket my entire life, never had it stolen. I grew up in NYC and was taught to have situational awareness aka if I don’t know you, you aren’t getting that close to me without being addressed.
I have the exact same wallet but without the Ridge logo now for a couple months. It's really different from a 'classic' wallet but I like it a lot. I paid about 7 USD including shipping for it. China is your friend ;)
Im thinking about buying a RidgeWallet but im conserned about how easily it dents/scratches. Would you mind telling me about how easy it was to scratch/dent the wallet?
@@EverythingPractical Id really like to see how it looks after 6 months. It would be sad if the scratches and dents were so apparent that the overall look of the wallet was destroyed.
Don't buy this wallet. It does next to nothing an elastic band can't do. You have to fumble to get cards out and it doesn't hold notes securely. I'll be using my 10 year old leather wallet.
How has it held up? I’m thinking about getting the black leather because I don’t have to worry about chipping or it getting paint chips but they don’t have a matching leather key case so I’ve been thinking about this one but with the blue flake.
I have stopped using mine regularly and have since been using my wallet from Vaultskin. At a 5th of the price and it is much more comfortable to carry around. But, the ridge wallet held up well. I had quite a few dents around the edges even though I was careful with it.. again, if it were 50.- Id say go for it, but it's too overpriced for what it is, in my opinion.
I ordered one but may return it as I keep my employee badge in my wallet and the card reader at the door of my building may not pick it up due to RFID blocker. I'll leave my badge on the money clip and see how that goes.
@@EverythingPractical compassion?? Do you mean COMPARISON? Haha-Well I didn’t like the video. It didn’t give what the title says! “Ultimate review” 😂 Besides, as a content creator you know that any interaction with the post is positive for you. So calm down, sir.
Comparison, yes. Auto-correct 🤭 and I am calm 🙃 Ultimate Review, not Ultimate comparison 😉 and to note, there is a comparison to another popular style of a minimalist wallet. Did you miss that? What doesnt make sense with your comment is that it infers that all videos should compare to what else is available on the open market, and as it may be nice, that is not the point of most videos. This video is a review of the Ridge wallet. The video is very detailed, and I provide the dimensions of the wallet as well as compare it to another minimalist wallent. The information is there... So, in a way, I wonder if you are unable to deduce the difference of items if it is not clearly laid out for you or, in general, just have unreasonable expectations.
Who would want to buy this wallet for real? This is the company that had Trevor Jacob crash his plane after he jumped out of it! This is an irresponsible company! I sure hope people have a brain and think about the damage that could have been caused if someone were hiking in the area or to any wildlife in the area when the plane went down in the stunt promoted by this company! Shame on you guys for doing such an irresponsible Act! I'd go out of my way to buy from anyone else but you guys. When you put people's lives on the line and the welfare of all wildlife that live in the area where the plane crashed, it's totally irresponsible! Would never buy your wallet. Ever!!
Im not sure what I said but certainly not more than $10... if you're only looking at this main material cost, a kilogram of Titanium is under $10 and carbon fiber under $20. The tiny tiny pice that is applied to this wallet is very likely worth no more than 25 cents, considering a "small" production run.
