I'm totally aware that this sounds weird, but could you share what you look for in a wallet? I'd searched for almost 18 months for the perfect one and had the following requirements (and finally found it in Ahmedabad): Not leather/pleather Single zipped coin section Tri fold without the additional flappy thing to carry more cards Dual note sections across the long edge

@careful-petabyte-17641 My only requirement was that it should last me 5-6 years. OK with the leather - though the tri-fold ones really treat Indian currency badly — so wanted to get a bi-fold one and which can carry all my 6 cards and old paper driving license (which is huge). Hence, settled for this one: https://amzn.to/39JGU9Q Bought it in June of 2016 and still almost as good as new. It comes in a smaller size as well.

I use the secrid. Thanks to both not needing to carry a lot of cash these days AND unfortunately having to carry RFID enabled plastics!

I use this: https://www.slimfoldwallet.com/products/thin-wallet-micro-soft-shell?variant=37388627457 • Doesn’t have a coin section- now with UPI, I don’t really miss it. • Looks minimal and like a traditional wallet instead of a card holder. • Fits fine in the front pocket. • RFID blocking. • Doesn’t handle indian currency notes well. But then I don’t really need a lot of cash, thanks to mobile payments. 🤷‍♂️

Thanks for all your feedback. I wanted to let you know why I'm asking. I didn't mention initially as to avoid biasing the data: As I've been travelling for the last 18 months across Europe and Asia (I miss India the most, so am going to Delhi in 2 weeks), I've noticed that my usual items I've got when I lived in London are not fit for the purpose of travelling. I'm looking to create some Nomad specific products, along with a brand to sell in the UK.
