Which minimal cartera would work best for you? There’s no such thing as a perfect universal cartera. Everyone has different needs, which means my perfect cartera will look different from your perfect cartera. So we’ve tried to cover the different bases, while maintaining minimalism and durability in the designs.
At Junyuan Bags, we offer three main minimal cartera options: the insider cartera, the enfold card cartera, and the port cartera. We often get the question: “which cartera should I choose?” In this video we will compare all three of our minimal wallets, allowing you to make the best cartera choice to fit your needs.
First, we’ll take a look at the Insider cartera. The largest of our minimal wallets, the Insider is the typically easiest to transition to when someone struggles with moving away from a traditional bifold, but still sits comfortably in a front pocket. The cartera uses a minimal folding design with 4 pockets. Each pocket can hold 3 to 4 cards, with a maximum capacity of 12 cards. The outside quick access pocket is perfect for your main debit and ID card, while the interior side is great for cash folded once.
Next, we’ll look at the enfold card cartera. It has a unique design that uses a tucked flap to secure the interior contents. It is incredibly slim and comfortable to carry, having just two dedicated card pockets and one flap-slot to stick a few folded bills. We recommend no more than 8-10 cards plus some cash. This cartera, in addition to being a great card-holder cartera, also accommodates business cards nicely, and is often used solely for that task.
And finally, our most popular model, the Port Cartera. The port cartera is one of our flagship products, and remains the most carried design by everyone here at the shop.
This cartera is a single-piece, wrap-around design, with 4 pockets, all of which can hold cards and twice-folded cash. We often stick around 6 to 8 cards plus a lucky 2 dollar bill in ours, but the cartera can comfortably fit around 10 cards.
For the ultra minimalist we recommend our Twobit Cartera. A cut down version of our Port with only 2 pockets. The Twobit holds 4 to 5 cards and a couple bills comfortably.
The port cartera also has a slimmer brother, the 2-bit cartera, which simply excludes the final wrap-around. This is a great alternative for those who want to carry just the bare essentials.
Minimal wallets have been at the foundation of what we do here at Junyuan Bags since we started. We believe that these wallets are a perfect alternative to the spine-warping brick most people carry in their back pocket.
That being said, leather fibers will stretch apart under pressure, but they will not come back together. We want minimal not… maximal. So remain consistent in the amount of cards you carry, and remember that less is more.
That’s it for the current line of Junyuan Bags handmade minimal wallets. We hope this video helps you in your search. Thanks for watching.
