We're just going to come right out and say it. Men, you guys have got a serious problem with buying thick bulky wallets that don't properly fit into your pants pockets, and it's time we finally come up with a solution. What's that solution you ask? Behold the almighty minimalist wallet—a slim refined wallet that has plenty of space to store all of your credit cards, your ID, and some cash if you need it. Minimalist wallets often come with RFID for extra security protection, are super stylish, are affordable (unless of course you want to go the designer route), and do a mighty fine job of fitting into skinny jeans, baggy jeans, chinos, shorts, joggers, or anything else you elect to wear for your pants choice of the day. If you make the right investment, a minimalist wallet can last you for years before showing any kind of wear and tear—meaning you won't have to frequently replace. Since we've already sold you on how great these bad boys are, we've put together a list of the best minimalist wallets you can shop now.

From under $10 options such as the Travelambo Front Pocket Minimalist Leather ($12.99, $7.99) all the way to luxury choices such as the BVLGARI B.ZERO1 MAN BIFOLD WALLET ($560), consider adding these wallets to your capsule wardrobes.

  • Card slots: 3
  • Dimensions: 4.8" x 3.58" x 0.75"

How to Pick the Best Minimalist Wallet for You:

As with anything you purchase, you'll want to go through the steps of asking yourselves what you need and what you are looking for with your potential wallet. Here are some things to consider.

  • Design: This may not be an important factor to some, but for others, they are looking for a wallet that is a specific color and design. If you fall into this category of only liking wallets in a certain color (black or brown for example), or you purchasing the wallet to go along with an outfit you are wearing, then you'll want to consider the color and overall design of the wallet.
  • Wallet Space/Size: The overall space and size of your wallet is something else you'll want to factor in. Are you looking for wallet that is big or small. How much space do you think you will require. Those are some of the questions to ask yourself when browsing through wallets. If shopping online, you should be able to see the wallet's measurements under the product description.
  • Materials: Again this may be something that qualifies under personal preference. Leather is a great option for those who like to watch the wallet break in over time, while some of the other fabrics in this list are preferable if you're looking for an option that's soft right when you get it. Overall, leather is the most durable option long-term.
  • Affordability: What is your price point? The amount you are willing to spend will best narrow down or expand your potential wallet options depending on what you are looking for. Higher quality wallets made of durable leather could eclipse $150, while some more accessible options are definitely available in the sub $50 range.
