If you’re looking to reduce the bulky look of a standard wallet, you might want to look into a money clip wallet. Traditional bi-fold and tri-fold wallets are large on their own, and when you start adding your cash, cards and other items they increase in bulk rather quickly. There’s an episode of Seinfeld where George Costanza has such a wallet and it’s so full of junk it gives him back problems as well as causing a number of other issues throughout the episode. The point is, they were poking fun of these wallets in this episode because they are old fashioned, and out-dated. The more modern approach to carrying your cash and cards is a mens money clip wallet.
These wallets tend to have only 2 or 3 slots for your most frequently used cards, and a clip for your cash. This clip either uses pressure to hold the bills in place, or a magnetic flap of leather, with another magnet built into the wallet itself. Some of these wallets have another slot for miscellaneous cards, located lengthwise and more difficult to access, but this is where you might put less frequently accessed cards like insurance cards, your AAA membership card, or grocery store cards, and other membership cards.
The Leather Money Clip Wallet
The leather money clip wallet approaches this modern style with the tradition of fine crafted leather. You will find this type of wallet in any color you’d find any leather goods, with black and shades of brown being the most common. Considering the audience for this product (mostly men), it may be a bit more difficult to find a hot pink money clip wallet, but they’re out there.
The Metal Money Clip Wallet
If you want to leave tradition behind, and go full modern, you can always check out a metal money clip wallet. These wallets are slightly more bulky than the leather counterparts, and of course weigh a bit more, but they are sleek looking, and tough. Often also referred to as “metal credit card wallets,” these wallets can be made from a multitude of metals from aluminum to titanium. As you might imagine a titanium money clip wallet comes at a hefty price, but nothing beats titanium for it’s toughness and sleek looks.
The key to selling point of a mens money clip with wallet is that you can carry everything you truly need while keeping a slim pocket profile. These wallets are also sometimes called front pocket wallets because they are slim enough to be carried in the front pocket without causing discomfort. There are a couple of reasons why you might be concerned with the bulk of your wallet and decide to go with a money clip wallet. Perhaps you don’t want a bulky wallet to throw off the perfect lines of you finely tailored suit. Maybe you carry several electronic devices (phone, ipod, digital camera) in your pockets, so you’re trying to reduce bulk anywhere you can. Whatever your reasons, a mens wallet with money clip is a modern, efficient and minimalist approach to carrying your essentials.
