    14 ounces? That can’t be right.

  2. Aleks says:

    14 ounces – damn thats pretty heavy wallet 🙂

  3. Geoff says:

    Grams not ounces

  4. Thisguy says:

    I was going to say 14 Oz is awfully heavy for a wallet.

  5. Kev says:

    $75! Guess im stuck with this 20oz flowfold for 1/3 the price.

      Yeah but is it made in America?
      With American materials?
      By American hands?

      • Default.mp3 says:

        FlowFold is made in the USA; not totally sure on if by American hands. RAGGEDedge is made in the USA, by American hands; more pricey, but I think they have better quality, overall.

        I’m not sure of the origin of sailcloth material.

        I’m not a big fan of how the ID window has been done on the BWE. Otherwise, I’d pick one up, purely due to my gear queer tendencies.

        • Default.mp3 says:

          I reached out to RAGGEDedge, here’s what they told me:

          “We purchase all our sailcloth from Dimension-Polyant & Challenge largely because they manufacture al most all of the materials we use in our gear in Connecticut. We do incorporate a few of their windsurfing materials (specifically the neon laminates : orange & blue) in our gear; those are made in Germany. Lastly, we use Dabond thread manufactured in Georgia.”

          So, RAGGEDedge is made in America, with almost all American materials, by American hands.

            Which Georgia? The one with hot, humid nights and sexy southern Bells, or the one that got a smackdown from Mother Russia in 2008?

      • Luke says:

        yes.

    No RFID blocking mentioned?
    Hmm… thinking not “best ever”

  7. jackson says:

    move the ID pocket to the outside so I can pull my CAC out without having to open the wallet and I’d be in for one.

  8. jj says:

    But, if I drop it in the woods…..

  9. JBar says:

    Hahaha. Nice one.

  10. E-Rock says:

    All these cool wallets and no RFID shielding. Get with the times, folks.

  11. caio says:

    The problem is that the ID window is too small. If it was a normal size window it will be a Huge plus to me.

  12. Mike Nomad says:

    Far from the best. While lacking RFID blocking as others have pointed out, it suffers from the classic, rookie mistake of most low-profile wallets: Slots for cards need to open in, toward the center-fold, not up (like the slot for the DL as shown).
