Something Awesome: RAGGEDedge Gear

We did a mini vacation to Austin a few years ago and stopped at Toy Joy which is a fun, eclectic toy store that has some unusual items.  M found a bacon wallet and it was great because it got a lot of compliments and laughs.  Everyone loves bacon, right?  One of his biggest complaints was that sitting on a a bi-fold wallet all day was bothering his back like he was pinching a nerve so he started shopping around for a minimalist wallet that you could put in your front pants pocket.

He found this website called RAGGEDedge Gear (they have an Etsy store too) and they have some really neat products.  The wallet he selected is a carbon fiber sailcloth wallet so it is super light and strong.  One side has three pockets for cards/cash and the other is a clear slot for your driver's license.  

They also sell gear bags and Father's Day was coming up.  My parents have a sailboat and are big into racing so we thought the perfect gift was a tote bag made out of hi-tech sailcloth.  My dad really loved it and we were surprised at the size - it was bigger than we thought it was going to be but he says it is perfect.  We selected the Armadillo 22L style.

So far the wallet is holding strong except for one stitch that has ripped in a corner but it is hidden by the material fold.  It stays clean, it's easy to wipe and the compact design has been perfect.  If you are in the market for something neat I would definitely check out their website!

**I was not paid to endorse RAGGEDedge - I paid for these items with my own money and just think it is a cool business with products that we have enjoyed.  They have no idea who I am**
