[Wikkerink Design](http://www.wikkerinkdesign.bigcartel.com/) has inspired me to do something that I have never done before. Right after I write about their rubber billfolds, I am going to go to their site and buy one. I mean, for 21 dollars you can get a super unique, eco-friendly wallet that will basically never fall apart. I just gotta have it.

The rubber billfolds are combined with felt and fabric sections for extra convenience. Check out other wallets on Trend Hunter below.
