    How 'bout a little pouch with a zipper about the size of a wallet to keep credit cards, cash, etc. in pack.

    thought about it, and it looks like a quality product...but no way i can do $46 for a wallet. a ziplock is sounding very nice.

    the price is included the shipping cost to worldwide and its material is CT9k.5, it should last longer then those CT1 -CT5 cuben.

    This wallet was firstly make for sailing in 2005 as i m working in sail industry and also a sailor, however i just notice that the outdoor group start using cuben to making products in this 2-3 yrs so i just promote it in outdoor fourm :P Plus i am also like hiking and camping but i dont want to carry weight so now trying to make lite weight stuff by myself!

    Actually this wallet is a half half idea to outdoor and daily use so it is not extremely UL product, if extremely going into UL people are really prefer to use a cuben pouch!

    in furture development will have a 2P Tent using one hiking pole [around 1kg] and rain pants in cuben.

    PS pls excuses my language i m not native in English

    Cuben fiber underwear. The next revelation
    We will never conquer a mountain. The mountain allows us to visit and with enough time asks us to kindly go back down. And then sits in peace with or without our presence. me.

    Resurrecting an old post here...but I pulled the trigger on one of these a few weeks back. I needed a new wallet anyway so I think that it is justified. So far, Jason has provided both great service as well as a totally awesome, sexy, functional and comfortable product! So, if anyone is curious, I posted a review on it over on my blog. Check it out:

    This comment just had to be bumped, and leaves me wondering if they make a ladies model with an ultralight Ti clasp?

    I got one of the Cuben "wallets" from Zpack for five bucks. Replaced the drawstring with some Spectra (also from Zpack) that was long enough to fit around my neck. My town clothes don't have any real pockets.
