The RidgeRidge Biflex Wallet for Men - Slim Minimalist Compact Wallet with RFID Protected Lining, Leather Front Pocket Wallets for Men (Tobacco Brown)

Honestly super impressed with this little wallet, let me start by saying I’ve had a ridge wallet for years, and finally decided to go the extra step and get the new Biflex a few months ago, and I couldn’t be happier. The included photos are to show what 6 cards and nearly $400 (50’s and 20’s) in cash looks like in such a small package. Definitely makes it a bit difficult to get the cash out but I don’t believe they rated it for such a load. Overall it’s getting a 5 star review, 10 if I could. Functionality wise it’s perfect, slim and small, with less cash it’s easy quite easy to the cards out. The leather is great quality and even starting to patina after only a few months that being said the cobalt blue is a beautiful color and only gets better with time. May be a little pricey for most which makes sense giving its original price of $115 and sale price of $85 which I think is now the actual price, but overall would definitely recommend for yourself and/or as a gift. 10/10 would buy again!

I recently purchased two Ridge Biflex wallets. One is in the Cobalt Blue leather option and the other is the black leather MKBHD version. I much prefer the MKBHD version with the half moon cutout in the middle as opposed to the traditional cutout which is closer to the edge per their traditional design. I’ve read where people have complained about not being able to push cards up on the other side where the full oval thumb/finger push opening is located. I haven’t had that issue at all. The Biflex disappears in the pocket and weighs nothing. Time will tell how well the elastic holds up, although it seems to be of excellent quality. This wallet is easy to use, albeit a bit on the pricey side, but the function and design specifically meet my needs. I cut my teeth on Ridge wallets many years ago and have several of their traditional offerings but I have to say this new Biflex is a great new direction since the footprint is much smaller and lighter than their aluminum counterpart. I can remember back when Ridge used plastic for the cover pieces before they switched to aluminum or titanium.

My husband loves these wallets! They are so compact and durable! So easy to get the cards out! Great product for the price!

Poor durability. Had it for 2 months, most of the small screws fell out and the leather covers fell off. For $70, it should be better constructed. Held the 5 cards inside the wallet fine, so if you don’t mind just the ugly metal wallet showing and not the leather covers on it, it will work. Wouldn’t purchase it.

For years I have wanted a Ridge wallet that you can carry in a front OR back pocket comfortably and this one finally does that. It is perfectly small but big enough to hold plenty of cards and some cash folded in thirds. I like that the cash goes in via a more discreet way than the original ie inside instead of outside of the wallet. I would have given it a 4.5 star rating if I could but as noted in some of the other reviews, the thumb hole on the back to get cards out of that compartment, does not work at all. I hope it will get better over time but I think if it had the same push slot as the other side and from the traditional ridge wallets then it would be a certain 5 star item for me. Also the black special version that has the front push slot in the middle works a lot better than the two with the openings off center like on the original hard shell wallet.

Great looking wallet! I get lots of compliments on it. Leather holds up very well. My only issue is that my screws came undone and I lost the extra screws that come in the box so make sure you put those in a safe place. The reason for that is I carry too many plastic cards. This now makes Ridge wallet number two.

I wanted to try out a Ridge wallet, but did not like the metallic tool kit-like Ridge wallets. When I saw that the Biflex is made of leather and elastic, I decided to go for it. First the positives: nice form factor; truly a minimal wallet; fits nicely in any pocket without bulge; soft without metal; decent capacity to hold sufficient cards; prefer the semi-circular cut being in the middle rather than on the side that makes it easy to push out cards. Now the negatives: the thumb opening on the other side has no functionality— one cannot push out cards or cash and getting cards or cash out of that pocket is an ordeal. If there was no thumb opening and instead this pocket had a wide cut out at the top (like the outer back pocket cut-outs in the Swanfield wallets by Carl Friedrik) , it would provide good functionality by allowing one to pinch the cards or cash and pull them out. I must admit that when one pulls out this minimalist wallet, it looks cool. But all the coolness ends when one struggles to get cards or cash out of the pocket with the thumb opening. This thumb opening may help one differentiate between the two pockets, but the usefulness ends there. Next, the price for this tiny piece of leather and elastic is ridiculous. Also, as the leather and elastic are sewn together, if the elastic gives, then the whole wallet will need to be replaced. I need to mention that the leather has an odd chemical smell. In the end, Ridge wallets may be preferred by a lot of young people, but it’s not my cup of tea. I would rather stick with Groove Life wallets (V2) with leather go attachments, Ekster card holder pro, Proof wallets and Double Oak Essentials wallets like, the cloud, slim version or even the Trak wallets. If I want a more traditional looking gift-worthy wallet with modern twists, I would go with Kings Loot supreme/special edition wallets or money clips (although a bit bulky). It may feel nice to pull a minimalist wallet (like the Ridge Biflex) out of the pocket in front of friends, but it is pointless if one has to compromise on usability/functionality and value for the money. If one prefers a bottle opener type minimalist wallet, Axwell is a much better product. Akeeni XSTO will make one feel that the Ridge is from the stone ages. People may wonder why so many YouTube influencers highly recommend Ridge wallets. Well, the secret is that Ridge pays these social media influencers 30% of whatever they can sell as opposed to other companies that pay 10%. So, no wonder Ridge wallets are so expensive. Ridge is a “one trick pony” that has shown zero innovation since the first version of their products. Other companies have used modern technology to advance/improve their products. Don’t fall for the hype and do your own research before wasting money on Ridge products.

Keep loosing screws. Is definitely a ride wallet
