Whether you’re a coffee or a Red Bull guy, a smoker or a gum chewer, a commuter or a driver, everyone needs something to get through the daily grind. All of those things require money, which means you need a money transportation device. Skip the standard leather wallets you’re used to and upgrade to one of these unconventional options.
This Hyundai sponsored post is about losing the leather and toting a more unconventional wallet. Thanks Hyundai! |
A multi-colored, silicone “wallet,” this Nooka option will keep your assets organized (hence the AO) with its expandable, yet comfortable design. It’s the cargo pants of wallets.
When was the last time you drove anywhere that a billboard didn’t almost cause you to crash? Put that same eye-catching ability to work for you with a Recycled Billboard Banner Wallet from NottyPooch.
Tyvek (the stuff that protects houses and airmail packages) meets clever art in every Dynomighty wallet. You end up with a an eco (and eco-nomically) conscious wallet that’s tear-resistant, water-resistant, expandable, recyclable and emblazoned with Chicago’s L, $100 bills or even Dot Matrix printer paper.
Since you’re officially business casual, a tie is probably the farthest thing from your mind, but that doesn’t mean it has to be the farthest thing from your pocket. Narwhal Co. recycles ties into fun, funky card holders, tie-folds and passport covers that will knot let you down.
As utilitarian as it is interesting, the Ragged Edge Kevlar Wallet comes with all the pockets you need – including two hidden bonus pockets. It won’t stop bullets, but the hidden pockets will definitely stop unapproved shoe purchases.
Made of recycled polyester (potentially one of your dad’s suits), the Nau Billfold is the go-to choice for the International traveler. In a bind and need to safely stow an extra SIM card loaded with valuable data? You’re in luck Jason Bourne because there’s a slot just for that.
Wine might have gone screw top, but the best vintages still use cork. It’s durable, flexible and retains flavor better than other options. It only makes sense to turn it into a billfold and pair it with a leather interior.
You might never be able to fill this vintage bank bag wallet with the amount of money it contained when it was just a bank bag, but it doesn’t make it any less awesome. Bonus points because it’s one of a kind and handmade.
Seatbelts prevent loss of life. Interrobang (think !? or ?!) prevents boredom. Combine the two of them and you have the conversation starting, cash loss preventing Interrobang Seatbelt Wallet.
Water resistant polymer available in card, cash, change and combination options that you can order in an almost confusingly large amount of color combinations.
Much like you after quality time on your fixie, the Neutra Prince is slim, flexible and, honestly, quite rubbery. Which are all excellent qualities in an expandable, water resistant wallet crafted from recycled car inner tubes. Comes complete with road marking battle scars.
Hyundai, like any good sponsor, wants to give away something to their adoring fans. While it won’t be a car, it will be something you like. We can’t tell you what’s behind door #2, but we can tell you it’s one of the items on this list. Comment below (be creative) and we’ll pick a winner 2/21.

I’m broke, so obviously I can’t afford a new wallet. So why would I even want t a new wallet if I don’t have any dough to stuff in there?
To confuse my enemies. And because I think I might make some cash in the future, if this whole “male stripper” thing pans out.
I love all the creative designs, especially the cork billfold. Very neat.
I love this collection of interesting wallets. The last time there was a list of unique wallets on CoolMaterial.com was the genesis of my personal wallet style. Now when I pull out one of my cool wallets (I have a Dynomighty styled after an international envelope, a bright orange Dosh and a black with orange highlighted kevlar Ragged Edge) there is an interesting sonata that plays from the soundtrack of my life.
Love looking at different types of wallet
That will keep my money secure from strangers
the problem is that it needs to be kept from my impulsive spending hands
First!
The seatbelt wallet was weird o.O
These are rad (yeah, I said it). I’m broke. Hand over the goods (pleaseandthankya).
If I carry the bank bag wallet can I pretend I’m Jeremy Renner in “The Town”? Please?
I’ve always wanted to get my hands on one of those Dosh wallets.
There should be more recycled material products. Back packs, ipad/ipod cases, and galore!
My singles would love their new home to be in Jack Spade’s cork wallet!
Love the Nau Billfold!
Nice
I personally like : Interrobang Seatbelt Wallet. Looks different, would be nice to have one.
Monkey love. Been looking for a new wallet.
I need one of those Dosh wallets! My butt hurts on long car rides, and I gotta say, that dosh looks like it would double as a mighty fine cushion!
Sign me up. My wallet is looking pretty ratty. And I’ve had my eye on those Kevlar wallets for some time…
wow, very innovative, love the tyvek and tie wallets very trendy I WANT ONE for my young son he is 12 and loves things made of diff materials as i am an interior seamstress and all his life he has seen me create and does the same .
katrina
Will the seatbelt wallet ensure financial security?
)
Anyway, the Dosh ones are pretty cool.
can the seatbelt wallet save my life?
Just when I thought I couldnt get any more cool material on me, you guys go ahead and have this giveaway.
The Ragged Edge Kevlar Wallet is pretty sweet, but can’t stop a bullet??? Hmm, gives me serious doubt whether it will be able to protect me from zombie induced bites and scratches then. Guess I’ll have to go with the next best thing. At least the Nau Billfold will let me carry a memory card where I can store the virus I’ll need to upload to the alien mothership when they come to enslave mankind. May also be useful against the robot army. Yes, the Nau Billfold is probably the best way to go. Now do you have a link to the aluminum foil hat store?
Kevlar Wallet Just like our economy
If I was to win the Jack Spade Cork Wallet does that mean I have to pin all of my money to it? Because that’s really going to hurt when I sit down!
Would a line up of Ragged Edge Kevlar Wallet’s be able to stop a bullet? Id like to see that!
Love the cork wallet, but the tyvek wallet with the Chicago “El” route would serve double duty- multifunctional!
someone needs to make a wallet out of recycled money
They all look pretty spiffy. Its hard to beat a Tyvek wallet with a subway map on it, but Ragged Edge and Nau are sure giving it a run for its money (pun possibly intended).
i need to replace my gangster roll held together with a rubberband
Hopefully the winning wallet comes with cash. The Neutra Prince wallet comes with ambiguous sexuality.
You know what every poor college student needs? A wallet to where he would keep his money if he had any.
I noticed the Dosh wallets are water resistant. This will come in handy…when I make it rain. Problem?
Love the recycled tie wallets. Such a great idea!
id stop using a money clip for almost all of these wallets…sweeeeet
I wrote down something clever for this comment and put it in my wallet. Then my wallet spontaneously combusted. So now you’re left with this awful comment instead. I really need a spontaneous combustion proof wallet. Hook me up!
I would choose any of these wallets over the ragged, tired, thick old wallet my boyfriend carries around. Bordering on Costanza-status…
I’ve been shopping for a new wallet recently. I think it’d be spectacular to have a wallet that was just as at home in my pocket as it is hanging on the wall such as these fine specimens!
I don’t ‘need’ a new wallet. But my current wallet has been getting a little uppity and I want to put it in its place. Another wallet would let it know that it needs me more than I need it.
I personally really like the sleek look of the Dosh wallets.
Break the norm! Those wallets look so sick.
I want!
BUT YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE ICE CREAM!?
Regular wallets are so boring, and the last cool one i had got eaten by a dog. Literally it was eaten by a dog after it fell out of my pocket (it was a wallet designed to look like bacon ironically) Now im stuck with my old one from 6 years ago. I need a new wallet to put my almost nonresistant cash in, and that Kevlar one is so clean
Make a wallet out of a couple Benjamins, so you can keep your money in your money
NOOKA AO wallet looks comfortable for my butt, i am tired of my butt having wallet pain, give me comfort!
I am in dire need of a wallet. I’ve been having to keep my roll of Benjies (actually Washingtons) tied in a rubberband. Pick me!
I’d love any of these wallets. I’ve had the same wallet for about 12 years and I could be wrong, but I think the leather is melting.
While I don’t have much money to put into it, I sure could use one of these unique wallets!
Buy an expensive wallet to put nothing in it? Not my style. That’s why I want one for free! Pick me!
I’m not broke anymore so I could use a wallet.
I need a wallet for my shirt pocket
If I had this I could then fire my personal assistant whose sole purpose is to carry around my many monies. Yes please.
All look better than the homemade duck tape job I’m sporting.
Nobody carries wallets anymore. I mean, they went out with powdered wigs! Yeah, see here’s what you need. Just a couple of cards and your bankroll. See, keep the big bills on the outside.
I’ve had the same wallet since high school, and I destroyed it by keeping it crammed full of gift cards worth 40 cents for stores that had long gone bankrupt. I’ve gotten so much better, but I’m still using that stretched and battered wallet. I need a new wallet so that I can move on with my life, no longer reminded of the wallet-sins of my past!
Dockers is old school. I want something new in my pocket!
I want a new wallet.
Why?
Because I love free shit!!!! Bitches!!!!!!
Do it! Give it to me!! C’moooooonnnnnnn!!!
the moths that live in my old wallet sure could use some new digs. i know they’d feel a lot better about their living conditions…
(Shameless Plug)
Each of these wallets illustrate Hyundai’s slogan “New thinking. New possibilities.”
Now, if I were to win one, I’d be thinking anything is possible!
any of these would make a wonderful gift, i know exactly the person i would give one to
I liked the kevlar wallet…can I have it?
Do you guys have any wallets pieced together from other wallets? I find those to be more wallet-y than these wallets.
Little known fact, wallet is two steps away from mullet.
That is all.
My last wallet was made out of duct tape (ducti.com), which lasted longer than any leather wallet I’ve ever owned. I love all the innovative materials being used for wallets now.
These are all wild looking. I would truly love to have any of these. It’s been so many yrs since I had a new wallet, I just don’t know how I’d react!!
These are great. One of my boys has a duck tape wallet from a museum…Smithsonian!
My Pulp Fiction inspired “Bad Mother F*****” wallet is in desperate need of retirement.
Usually my current girlfriend buys me a wallet but I’m single at the moment (and loving it) so I would love a new wallet!
OMG I HOPE I WIN. If it’s any consolation, i learned how to drive in a hyundai accent XD
The dosh wallet is awesome – especially the version with a money clip. Not sure about the nooka one – sweaty money!
these look awesome. I need a new wallet to.
I wasn’t sure at first if the contest was still going on because the article says drawing is 3/27 with no year and the article doesn’t have a date on it that I could find. Luckily the comments have dates!
I’ve seen the dynomighty wallets before, and although I like the classic leather, I wouldn’t mind diving into another material. Most of these wallets would work brilliantly for me.
I found my wallet on a cold snowy December night, lost and abandoned in the cold dark world, I found it orphaned weak and lonely. Its various cards, bills, and ID’s long since had left it to wither and die. I took pity upon this cold lost soul and took it in.
Throughout the next few weeks I nursed it to health. I gave it a pocket of its own and reintroduced it to the joys of Identification and credit cards. I showed it the ropes of quick tipping strippers, hot waitresses and the like.
Time and time again my wallet only showed what it had to when haggling, “I have only $5″ sometimes still echoes forth from the expanse the is my wallet. Over 50 successful shady Craigslist deals, were only such because my wallet kept its cool under pressure, never presenting too much or to little cash for the deal to go smoothly.
It was only through this hard work and dedication my wallet soon became legend among wallets. From its humble upbringing off the hard streets, my wallet had come out on top proving to all that its pockets, threads, and seams could pass the test.
Then on that fateful day when the pressure was extremely high, a Craigslist deal that I thought we could haggle, I was prideful, I was confident, I was cocky. The signs were all there, I should have never tried to swing this deal. My wallet was late in its life, seams and threads were worn, stretched, and warped, but still I pushed, so it did too.
In the fatal last moments, I swung the wallet up in an attempt to pay, and as if to say “I’m getting to old for this shit.” my wallet swung open dangerously, Almost loosing its grip on all that has ever been good in my pockets. Catching itself it flipped closed quickly and waited for my signal. I opened my wallet slowly and stably, but that wasn’t enough. My wallet then gasped its last breath and tore in two. I panicked momentarily, but knew it would have wanted me to finish the deal so I did.
Upon returning home I emptied my tired, worn, wallet. All life sucked from it by the teamwork of fate and my own pride, but wait! In one last cry, a thank you, a secret pocket never known by me now revealed in its weakened state. What else could be in the most secret of all secret pockets but a pair of two dollar bills weathered from the years of torment that bills often must endure, but held safe in the comfortable recesses of my compassionate wallet.
Then it all made sense, A wallet isn’t made to tip strippers, or even to balance the playing field at yard sales. A wallet is born to protect what you hold dear.
A wallet can only be the best it can, become a legend, if it has something in its heart, something worth protecting, something to fight for.
The truth is the only definition I have for wallet, is hero.
The money bag wallets are pretty cool.
I gave my brother a Dynomighty wallet for Christmas. Well, I almost did, as my father mistook it for a scrap of wrapping paper and threw it out! He deserves a replacement.
I’ve been in the market for a new wallet for months. This is actually how I came across this website. I couldn’t find any wallets really worth my time and money anywhere else but here! I need something more than just a basic black leather trifold. I need excitement!
Having any of these wallets would be cool for me!
I deserve a new wallet because my current one is old and falling appart. So wheres my damn wallet I want it now.
I have been looking for a new wallet because my leather one got torn apart. I am always looking for something unique and these wallets do it. I currently use a rubberband to hold my cash and cards together.
Add “wallet” to the list of stuff women notice first: shoes, watch and wallet. I need to upgrade so hope you can pick a good wallet out for me to win. Thanks Hyundai!
I really like the Dosh design and the seatbelt wallet is a great idea! I have one of the Dynomighty wallets and they are sooooo tough. Cheers
Wow. These wallets are pretty cool. I really like the Dosh
Really like the Ooga wallet.
The Kevlar wallet would definitely come in handy should I find myself in the midst of a gun fight and I was in need of a shield. And the Dosh wallets are pretty bomb too so either one would help in a sticky situation, whether it be in a fight for my life or impressing my date with a money keeper that styles on everyone.
Pick me, pick me!
the wallet i made in camp 20 years ago is on it’s last legs…it had a good run but it is time to let it go…i could REALLY use a new wallet(even it will be empty)…Please !
i’m tired of making duct tape wallets and need a new wallet for all the stuff i carry
I’ve been using money clips for a while… but I want something that I could put with jeans and a t-shirt and not feel like a geezer. Any of these would be great. And if I don’t win…could you post websites where I can find these?
buying a has always felt funny, you give away you money for a money holder. Would love to WIN one. HAHA. These wallets are awesome.
im a soldier.. and like ninja’s, we need something that can be useful for many things, and can be re used for many other things, like my new wallet! So, please, give me a wallet that can double as nunchucks, or throwing stars, or, just give me a wallet that was once something else entirely.
How cool are these, I don’t recall ever having anything but leather wallet. Well maybe like a Ninja Turtles wallet when I was a kid or something.
I like monkeys
I love non-leather products. I own a Dynomighty wallet and I need something new! Don’t have a cow, or eat a cow, or wear a cow. SAVE THEM. Use recycled materials.
pretty neat
really unique wallet!! i’m sure my boyfriend would love to have one! super awesome!!
Is Difficult be ore cretive that the wallalets,
Many of the life most good pleasures are sealed by something that we need to break. This seal is the beginning of the wonderful . The Rare and Precious Life. somethings is Mature, Sometimes is Money. But Others is easier than This. Think, open our eyes maybe you’ll see. This seal make the things perdurable, getting old and making whats inside be more and more good. To break the seal what we only need is the desire to take it, and to enjoy the life. When we got it, the result is the phantom of the past. And is This Phantom what really matter. What Do Preserve is to ourselves from the nature. Distillate from our brain and taste for our mouth. Seal of the life’s bottle. Sweet Torment.
What I want is the seal, this seal to break up and be good with myself .
Get the nature and combine with it .
From her hands, to our hands and again to her. But the junk can be art, with another hands and visions, than preserve our creations.
If you don’t got it is the cork,the cork than sealed a pleasure: the alcohol
creativity? HA. i have a shitty wallet. and i want a better one, like one of the above. hows that for creativity mo-foockas
Is Hyundai going to give away a wallet made of car? I hope so.
i think the bank bag would be an ironic wallet to have because i get all my money from robbing banks
it would be a real curveball for the cops
This is PERFECT
Dosh street Achtung! will match my Red Hyundai Getz and my Red case iTouch >:)
NAU Billfold looks to be very slim and can carry a lot of stuff!
Now only if I could get the rest of my clothes in silicone…
inspiration to use the many items sitting sadly alone not touched, to turn them into functionable assets to our future, i like to think of water..and how they say the same water we drink is dinosaur piss..so it will be recycled for millenia, as will every thing homo sapiens create..out of the earth, WAHOOO
Oh I hope its a duct tape wallet, or an instructional manual on how to make a duct tape wallet. I’ve always wanted one of those! If its one of the wallets shown then I guess that would be good as well.
I will require the Nau Billfold to win my people back.
Seriously, they will kill me with stones if I do not have this wallet.
once again “Nau Billfold”
Sweet, like the dosh and the kevlar ones.
Fantasmal! Excellent selection of wallets!
im a broke college student, so i dont have any money but i do need a place for my condoms.
NIce wallets…but will it blend?
An eco-friendly guy needs an Eco friendly wallet to complete the package ;D
unique and awesome!
I need a wallet so I can look like I have money when I really don’t
I can’t sleep without thinking about the wallets
is it just me, or does dosh remind you of Tron? and oh, a seatbelt? goes nice with my Chrome bag. Sooo many options.
thanks cm
Love the dosh and nooka wallets. It’s like an iPhone case for your cash. Let’s color coordinate people!
I think Adrian Olives should win. I mean serioisly look at the time put into that comment story epicness, but hey if you want to give me a new wallet too, well that’d be cool.
just let me have it. i need a “cool material” that this ‘bachelor guy” can carry to “uncrate” all the women with the money that i dont have. Nau Billfold.
go vegan, don’t use leather!
go vegan, skip the leather!
Awesome.
My last wallet was synthetic fur, and do to its popularity, keen fashion sense, and the way it grabbed attention it was subsequently stolen along with $250.00. Therefore I believe many of these wallets, although still fashionable may act much like a chameleon in my pants (can I say that), and further prevent me becoming an unemployment statistic.
what have we always said is the most important thing?
Breakfast.
But wallets are a close second
Cool Stuff!
Well, I’m all about free stuff since I’m poor. So, hook me up with a free wallet so I can store more of my money in it instead of spending it.
Awesome set of wallets. I’d def like one.
I need a new wallet because I lost mine and I’m currently borrowing my sisters. Let me tell you that girls don’t come running when they see the Hello Kitty.
Nau Billfold is just classy…too classy
i <3 all these wallets!!
I’m not sure a seatbelt wallet is such a great idea. I’m certain I would lose it in my car somewhere, be staring at it for hours and yet NEVER find it, or my money, ever again!
The Neutra Prince Wallet is sweet!
Nice collection- very eco-minded. Especially like the kevlar but they r all very innovative.
Give a nice wallet to a guy who doesnt have a lot of money. That way, when said guy pulls out his wallet, he creates the illusion of wealth thereby attracting lady-friends. Ergo, CoolMaterial becomes an instant wingman.
Sidenote: I am a guy who doesnt have a lot of money.
I studied and have a love of design, so your website is amazing for this. These wallets are really innovative and cool!
This is too cool, show people these wallets stat conversation.
i need a new wallet…
I drive a Hyundai and need a new wallet…what better combo to be the big prize winner!
Hyundai. Your cars have nothing to do with wallets. I just saved you thousands on wasted advertising and all I ask for is a giveaway in return.
Anything would be better than my black binder clip…
Those are definitely innovative wallets. I’d be happy to win one if I am chosen.
Thanks!
I need a kevlar cork for that narwhal’s nottypooch, nau!
One of my friends I met recently while backpacking had the old letter style wallet you guys featured a while ago.. Now I want that kevlar one so that I can be cool too…
Hook me up with one of these sick wallets and I’ll keep telling my friend’s about you guys. Incentive for you, incentive for me. Seems like a good call in my book!
I love the look of these wallets! I would enjoy having something that is not what others have and these wallets are awesomely unique.
these are trippy…but def cool
Love it. Love to win it. Love love love.
Ok ok. I have had my current wallet for a while. Here’s my thing, I would love to have one of these wallets, so that at least the bulge at my back side is not actually bigger than the front. Help a guy out please.
Sweet – I love how designers are focusing on re-using old materials now – good stuff!
Step One: Get a wallet.
Step Two: Get money to put in wallet.
Should be easy enough right?
If wallets were a associated with the type of person I am, Well then it looks like I drive a Yugo.
Too much money-too little space.. i need ‘im all
I like the part where the money goes in.
My first car was a “hand-me-down” Hyundai. Now, here I sit begging for a recycled Hyundai! Obviously I’m frugal to say the least. So please, help me save a few bucks and a cow.
Hyundai getting into the wallet business…that’s uh, interesting
Coolness. I like money and I like to hold my money in fun things. Can I win please? THANKS! xoxo
Hyundai + Wallets = Greatness!
I love all the creative designs, especially the Recycled Billboard Banner Wallet. Very cool.
YOU CAN ALWAYS USE A WALLET,LET ME WIN!
That would be really COOOOOOL please
Wallets are pretty awesome!
I’ve been wanting to try a DOSH for awhile now, but can’t bring myself to pull the trigger yet. BUT if I was to win one, I would most definitely use it…but probably not to stick in the mouth of someone having a seizure…that’s just gross. I mean, sure, you are saving someone from biting off their tongue, but then you have their seizure drool all over your money and credit cards. Who would be friends with someone that is prone to throwing conniption fits anyways? How embarrassing…
i’m in!
George’s wallet on Seinfeld. That’s what I’ll do with a new wallet.
I couldn’t wait I had to visit one of the sites and buy one of these cool wallets~!
Hyundai please give a car with the wallet…no.?!?!?, Ok I’ll take the wallet and walk…
I think all the Wallet are cool
Those are the coolest out of the box kind of wallets…I have to have one!!!!!
the wallets r hella sick… i want one!!!
I want that Nooka wallet!
even though I don’t have any money to put in one of those, I still need to look cool.
Hey a new Wallet, SO now if we could get some cash to put in that wallet ( or more directly if I could get some money)
can i borrow five bucks for cab fare
interesting mix for sure, need to see them in person
How does one wash a cork wallet?
make me win!
Yeaa i want to win
love for these wallets
i really need an new one!!1
I may not be as creative as these wallets, but what better way to show off my coffe punch cards, workout card, picture of my niece, and various lint pieces to the ladies than pullin out one of those bad boys. Who knows, maybe i’ll throw in a couple dollar bills to add gusto!
My current wallet isn’t a wallet at all. It’s a rubber band. Yuuuup, it’s awesome. Heck, I may even upgrade to a binder clip soon…or perhaps another office item. Could I use a (new) wallet, you ask? Sure I can. But do I have the energy to go shopping for a wallet or construct one myself with my bare hands? Ehhhhh that’s involves…like…..work.
So I’m crossing my fingers and knocking on wood and I’ll even start carrying a four leaf clover (after finding one) with my pile of rubber band-ed cards and cash. There’s no way I CAN’T win this now!
duct tape is awesome, but why not mix it up? The nooka, dosh and nau would fit nice in my jacket pocket. What? You don’t put your wallet in your back pocket do you?
Dang……awesome wallets. Just when I need one!!!
As I currently only own a money clip, a new wallet would be great, as I have recently joined the ranks of the underemployed, and money clips don’t seem so appropriate when your carrying bunch of singles.
Thanks
Ooga – Neutra Prince Wallet for sure. I just bit through my five year old leather fossil wallet rocking out to Linkn Park (trying their best) covering Nine Inch Nail’s “Wish”.
The dynomightytyvek wallet is nice and practical yet unusual. You could even do a London underground edition or local bus routes. In Edinburgh the Lothian buses maps would go down a treat.
A wallet is like life, the quality of it makes it last longer while keeping it full with things you love will keep you happy.
WA WA WA WALLET! I would love a wallet to go with my future Equus!
heres a tip, seatbelt – the definitions in the word, a belt on a seat, what genius thought that it meant wallet
Oh my GOSH can I get the Dosh Wallet. Thanks…..
I would like to see how the Dosh or Nooka wallet would hold up. I go through normal wallets pretty fast.
Let’s take a chance.
I’d have to get two, to even out my butt cheeks. Too cool for words.
I want the cool stuff!
Dig da Dosh, baby!
For the past year I have been using a wallet with a hole ripped in it because I had to sacrifice it. My lowered car got stuck on a speed bump and, inspired by MacGyver, I sandwiched the wallet between two flip flops underneath my rear wheels so they would have something to make contact with the ground. Thanks to some quick thinking, I was able to free the car and escape from a sticky situation on my own. The only downside is there’s no way to look presentable when it’s time to pay the bill and I pull out a wallet tattered on one side.
I really need a wallet , not so much because of all my dough( cause I’m Broke) but to give a different shape to bleach out on my hand me down jeans. T “skoal circle” just doesnt do it for me, and seriously how many triangular or hexagonal objects can you find to put in your pocket.
Hopefully I win the cork wallet, that way i can pin my notes straight to my money-holster
Who needs cows anyway!!!
For so long leather has been the go-to hide for wallets – now I find meself fascinated with wearing a wallie made from the very sacks that formerly carried bank notes – Ha! It’s like making Jello-shots in empty egg shells that formerly carried chickens! It all makes sense in a Zen sort of way ~:0)
Let’s face it, we all have been embarrassed at some point by our wallet. It’s hard to look like you have an ounce of class when you offer to pickup the check and you whip out that overstuffed, ragged wallet. Or worse yet you have to rip open your Velcro wallet to get at your cash. (RIP…) One of these wallets would look awfully good coming out of my pocket when I offer to pickup the tab. Like it or not, your wallet says alot about you…
I would like a new wallet.
I couldn’t think of a better place for one of these cabbage bins,Then my back pocket!!!
This is one of the things I love about the “green” revolution, quality items that reuse stuff to pollute less
i am not being creative
I am always a fan of wallets! I think to be able to have a wallet for every outfit! Its the same idea with watches or shoes, i think the wallet should be the same, a sleek black one is great for a date, but with jeans, something more eye catching is good. My goal is to have enough kind of wallets to get this, but the only problem is finding the right fundig, so with a free one i could reach the goal!
Wow I could really use a new wallet. Actually I could use alot more of that green stuff that does in a wallet, but for now I guess a really nice wallet will do.
hello, for the last 5 years my wallets have came from Oahu, Hawaii where my sibling lives. Every one is “Made from Genuine Leather” in INDIA! (where they worship cows) Am I aiding blasphemous activities such as crime, violence, and hatred in a country I’ve never been too?
Great ideas for stashing your cash!
NOOKA is the best
Had to go to the throne, but coolmaterial.com has gotten me hooked once again. I really like the Kevlar wallet. I play tennis and use Kevlar strings. Fuck yah cool material, you rock.
There is one wallet style missing that I’d like to see… something along the lines of a “human” wallet. Not made of skin, per se, but maybe re-thinking the need to carry paper cash and plastic credit cards. A microchip implant in one’s hand, maybe?
I Dig bifolds, and the dosh wallet looks the sickest next to the first one
Good stuff
I have actually made the last few wallets of mine, duck tape, tivec, one even had one of those little greeting card music chips in it. Im tired of people looking at me funny at the cash register because of my wallet. Let me be like everyone else and have a silicone wallet.
OK, this is my cool comment
I want a new wallet!
Gracias
That Ooga watch is the cat’s pyjamas! I could use some rubber like that in my pocket!
These are great!
I love cars!
*Wallets..
I like the cork wallet
This is quite an assortment of unique wallets. I have to say if I were to choose one it would be the Nau.
Some great wallets which are great for the environment. Wonderful ideas!
I just got a stainless steel wallet but the cork and kevlar wallets are cool.
Would really enjoy a new wallet right about now. thanks for the oppurunity.
All of theses wallets are crazyy innovative, just like the new Hyundai designs. Breaking out of the norm is awesome, I am glad to see something other than the other plain cars out there.
Environmental Friendly but unfortunately I bet my wife can still find the cash no matter where I put it inside the wallet. I will still take one. Great Designs.
Hey can Hyundai hook me up with a wallet that I can page like my car alarm, I’ve been digging in this coach for hours.
Hyundai=car=:-)
Competition=wallet=$
If Hyundai fills the wallet with cash, i’ll fill it with cards… in the end we’ll both be happy campers ;D
Damnit..I saw “Hyundai Giveaway” and got all excited. Give me a wallet, and I won’t hold it against you.
Nice wallets…would make all ma receipts look nice lol we all know broke dude are in style in this recession
Interesting concept here…comments for a prize…and unusual ones at that!
I love the Dosh! And I need one because my wallet is being held together with tape!
These wallets are bad ass! Out of all the wallets I’ve seen (and had), these just take the cake!
my wallet is an envelope attached to a money clip! time to upgrade!
So we have Hyundai giving out wallets and not cars, we have Kevlar and bank bag wallets(ironic?) and two wallets like they would be seen in the movie TRON. Something tells me that diversity is a key ingredient to this company’s success in ingenuity.
i need to save the earth
totally digging the recycled tie wallets.
i would love to know how they come up with some of these ideas. itd be sick to pull out such an original wallet instead of having a plain and boring wallet.
I’d buy the cork wallet. But I’d only use it when wearing my bark slacks and acorn lined p-coat. While boating.
I’m tired of being embarrassed when pickpocketed. Help me out dosh
as benjamin frankiln said “He that displays too often his wife and his wallet is in danger of having both of them borrowed.” Some of these wallets are so cool that they need to be shown off. Hopefully I’ll be able to hold on to it if I do happen to win
Reusable material AND smooth design?! Pinch me please. Not gonna lie, pretty surprised and impressed with the imaginative use of uncommon material. Plus, none of these are simple enough that I’d be able take the time acquire the materials to make myself. But, thank god you’re not trying to sell me a duct tape wallet. Maybe this will turn concept idea in a whole new direction. It’s the little things that count. First wallets, then who knows? furniture made from old car parts? tables made out of old books? maybe someday.
I have only owned two wallets since I have been an adult(camouflage Velcro wallets as a kid do not count as real wallets.) The first was given to me as a present for being a groomsman and the second I made myself out of duct tape. I had been thinking about getting a new one recently as my duct tape one is rather shabby looking. This last weekend I went out to a fancy restaurant with some friends and my new girlfriend. I picked up the check but was a bit embarrassed when I brought out my wallet to pay. I want that to never happen again so any help you can give me would definitely help build positive girlfriend faction!
Very cool collection of wallets. I am a big fan of the Nau Billfold – what a great design.
These wallets are awesome! Pick me!!
cool stuff! i love that it’s all recycled materials!
If I got the Seatbelt Wallet.. I can say to my friends “My wallet saves lives, what can yours do?”
Sweet.
