Maxpedition is well-known for their rugged bags and packs, and the Micro Wallet takes their design and heavy-duty construction heritage straight into your pocket. Measuring a mere 4.5" x 0.25" x 3", the Micro Wallet indeed takes up little room, but what little space it occupies is stitched solid with the features of its big brothers. Light-weight ballistic nylon fabric coated in Teflon and polyurethane protects its 3 pockets and ID window, making maintenance a breeze with the added water and grime resistance. The Micro also employs high-tensile strength nylon threads double-stitched and bartacked at stress points to ensure integrity and durability for high-friction areas. Spare no expense -- or space -- for Maxpedition quality in your pocket with the Micro.

I absolutely love this wallet, I use it everyday and have for almost a year. It is incredibly tough. The biggest problem is that the ID card slot is too big for only a few cards, my ID kept sliding out of the pocket until I realized that I needed to add more cards. This is not a problem if you have the proper number of cards, but if you are looking for a true minimalist wallet with as few cards as possible, most of them will have to go into to ID slot. Other than that, great wallet.

I had multiple wallets for the last 15+ years, different shapes, sizes and materials. I started getting smaller and smaller until I started carrying the wallet on the front pockets, so I got minimalistic. Still, most wallets couldn't cope with the stress of twisting, sharing space with metal objects or even sweat, until I found Maxpedition Micro. It's bombproof, I can't believe how it still looks great after 2 years of hard use. Stitches look indestructible, nylon is flawless, this thing is a pocket beast. 5 out of 5.

I've been running this wallet for almost 2 years. A true minimalist wallet at an incredible price point. I want to say that I picked mine up on sale for about $10. That's hard to beat when you pair it with Maxpedition quality. 5 out of 5.

I've been carrying the Encore myself and really like the Maxpedition quality, but I do find it rather large.
