Im new to this part of arfcom. I want something very durable and badass looking. Who makes good tough canvas wallets? Im sick of my leather ones falling apart every year. Also One with two ID windows would be awesome. (One for CCW permit one for DL) Anyone have any links?

I had mine for well over ten years now and its still in great shape.

I have a Maxpedition Spartan. It's better than my old leather wallet but is a little too tall. Plus it has this annoying rubber tab I had to cut off. I think it was intended to help you grab onto it, but in reality it always kept it from sliding all the way down into my back pocket.
I've got a specops T.H.E. Junior on order. No velcro and looks to be a better size. Now if OpticsPlanet will just get their backordered crap in, maybe I'll actually get the damn thing. |

Not a double ID window, but a tri-fold that's available in many colors (Multicam in stock right now) and it'll probably outlast your grand kids.

Like the "shark-bite" closure on it, no velcro is awesome. Has a ton of little places for credit cards, business cards etc, and a zippered "coin" pouch ( i use it for spare keys to the truck), and a bill area with a zipper separator for "hidden" bills. Even with it completely loaded, it is thinner than my old wallet. Partly because it is wider, and partly because of how it distributes load. And it looks to be extremely well-built, and comes with holes to hang it from a lanyard and an outside id holder for hanging it around your neck. All-inall: i'm pretty impressed. I was going to go with the maxpedition for more money, but i'm really glad i got the specops. |

I have the Max Spartan wallet as well. It is a bit bulkier than my normal Leather bi-fold, and I'm not a fan of velcro, but I love the wallet, and I hope it lasts forever. (The Leather wallets would last me about 5 years or so.) Tons of slots in it, two cash slots, little velcro tabs inside to keep the cards in place, a mesh panel on the back which is handy to toss things in occasionally.
I also don't know what's up with the rubber tab. maybe to hang it from for lanyard, or in the store on hooks? I almost cut it off, but I occasionally actually do grab it to pull the wallet out of my pocket. (I've always carried my wallets in my front pocket.) |

"Tacticool" wallets in aluminum or delrin -> http://www.tmtwallet.com/products.html
Ogon Designs makes a cheapie aluminum wallet in the $30-50 range - comes in 2 sizes (credit card size and "euro" size) - they are cool looking, but don't hold much of anything and the locking mechanism will just pop open if you put one too many things in it. |

| I had the same question a few months ago, went with a Specops T.H.E. J.R. I will never have a different wallet again everything is perfect with it. Holds everything plus more. Love the shark bite closure. Don't waste you time with anything else! Check out youtube for a review, it sold me on it and I could not be happier! |

Velcro went out with wallets when my balls dropped... Nothing says "I'm not getting pie" like ***SSshhhhrrriiiippppp*** when your paying for dinner with that lady friend you've been Facebook stalking.... CXS So make a cool one man... everyone knows your not a real man unless you can drop your mallet in the desert and never find it due to the awesome multi-cam...

Another vote for the Spec-Ops T.H.E Wallet Jr.
I've killed every other wallet that I've owned in less than a year. T.H.E Wallet still looks new after at least two years. It's about as perfect as a wallet can get. http://www.specopsbrand.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductID=11 |

CXS I used to have a woodland camo wallet with velcro. It was wicked cool. In 1983. When i was 10. Hehe.
