Rogue Industries Front Pocket Wallet

With all their varied shapes and sizes, sometimes getting all our gear, accessories, and apparel to work well together is an exercise in forcing a square peg down a round hole. Take wallets, for example, where the common rectangular shape is meant to fit a rectangular pocket, and for many pants—especially the front pocket of jeans—the shape doesn’t quite line up. To solve this square wallet, round pocket dilemma, Rogue Industries produced and patented their Front Pocket Wallet. With its unique shape, premium materials, and US-made construction, the wallet provides a sleek and comfortable option for your everyday essentials.

A smooth, rounded edge gives the Rogue Front Pocket its distinct form factor. The design allows the wallet to sit flush against the rounded contour of its namesake, your front pants pocket. The shape, paired with a 0.25“ thickness, gives it a slim and discreet profile, minimizing bulge while maximizing its utility. It’s compact at 5” x 3.4“ and lightweight at only 1.6 ounces, making it a solid EDC option.

You have the option of two designs for your Front Pocket: 6 slots that can hold up to 12 cards, or 3 slots that hold 6 cards along with an ID window on the right panel, with the billfold and stash pocket up top. Either option can be made from your choice of American Bison or Moose Leather. Wallets from the Bison and Moose collections in particular are made in Maine, USA, to boot. Both materials have exceptional durability that will develop a patina unique to its user over time, with the added bonus of RFID protection.

The Rogue Industries Front Pocket Wallet’s thoughtful design, robust fit and finish, and craftsmanship gives you a sound everyday option that solves a common everyday conundrum.

Gerber Center Drive Plus

When it comes to EDC, some of the best gear you can carry is the result of feedback-driven design from within the community. That ear-to-the-ground approach is exactly how Gerber improved upon their Center Drive multi-tool, now in an upgraded 'Plus' variation that has a new set of features that's even more suited for everyday carry compared to the original. But not everything is new: the Center Drive Plus retains the easy one-handed operation that made it a favorite choice in the first place.

The new Center Drive Plus features a combination straight- and serrated edge knife that's more versatile than the original plain blade featured on the original, especially if you find yourself cutting through rough material like thick ropes on a regular basis. And it's still a full-sized 3.25" blade, which is longer than knives on many other multi-tools in its class. When you need precise cuts and a knife won't do, the new Plus model now also packs a pair of spring-loaded scissors.

Like the original, the new Plus model allows you to access all of the tools with a single hand, without having to fumble with the handles like on a traditional butterfly-style tool. This includes the pliers themselves, which pop out of the handles, ready to go. And the long-extended bit driver flips out easily as well; now augmented with a set of common bits as part of the package. It retains its namesake centered positioning, making driving screws comfortable and efficient.

With the new Gerber Center Drive Plus multi-tool in hand, you can take on bigger and more varied tasks compared to its original incarnation. It’s a great choice whether you’re in the market for your first multi-tool or looking to upgrade from the original. You can pick one up in your favorite of three colors available at the link below.
