Mine is literally being held together by two rubber bands.

Suggestions for a new one would be most welcome. Though to be clear, I'm not asking for an idealised wallet, I'm asking for the specific one that you have now that has lasted you X years without complaint

The more worn and frayed, the better

Not Ridge (they're too pricey IMHO) but similar....

I really like this style that has a wrap around note pocket that closes. I don't like the "Money clip" method of having cash. I don't trust it. So having a sealed compartment for cash / receipts works better for me and you still have quick access to cards.

This German alternative is pretty good, although I remember them being a bit cheaper a few years ago...

They definitely are proud of their product. It was a huge change for me. I'd been a back pocket bifold or trifold guy my entire life, and I just got to the point I hated it. Had to remove it from my pocket if I was driving or riding my motorcycle or sitting for any extended period of time. It collected crap I had no need to collect, etc.

Bought my Ridge, my wife laughed and said"that elastic will never last". I'm still on my first elastic!

I bought them for two of my three sons who also love theirs.

All that said, I've looked a couple of times at ones like you shared, and think they would work great also.
