The Captain Wallet - Firehose Edition is a wider, flatter bifold built for back-pocket comfort. Made from real decommissioned fire hose with a 1000D Cordura interior lining and a 40-gauge clear ID window (more than 2x thicker than standard). Holds 12 to 15 cards and up to 20 bills folded in half. 4 by 5 inches folded for better weight distribution and a comfortable seated profile. Hand-sewn in small batches in America — the result of 13 months and 50+ failed prototypes before we got it right.

Made in the USA.

Reviews

Very strong but also very comfortable

"Folded thickness is approximately 1 cm when empty, approximately 1. 5 cm when holding 7 cards. Rides very comfortably. The bill pocket is almost exactly the same length as a dollar bill. When I spread the bill pocket open, it becomes difficult to get the bills in. I don’t use cash very often, so this isn’t a big problem."

Durable, reliable, and holds everything I need

"All around, a solid, reliable, and durable wallet that doesn't feel too thick in the back pocket, and holds everything I need it too, I've had it for probably 1 1/2 years, with no issues at all, and still looks and feels like new. No fraying on any of the stitching and the binding is still holding together."

Donald (5/5)

Absolute best wallet

"I've have some great wallets, but this one is the best. I've used it for anout 10 years now and it still looks almost new. It's very roomy and it doesn't bulk up and cause my back to hurt. I had to buy an extra just in case none was available when I need to replace it! Lol"

Greg (5/5)

Best wallet I've ever used

"I purchased two of the captains and two of the sergeant wallets. Bought for family Christmas presents. I have been using a Recycled Firefighters captain wallet since 2019 or so. Most comfortable and long lasting billfold I've ever owned. I may lose it one day (hope not) but intend to keep one of these as a spare if ever needed. Don't think it will ever wear out."

Cannot beat it.

"Speaks for itself, strong firehose, quality. Looking forward to see how it handles the spending action at the hardware stores & maybe the wife's farmer markets."

Edwin J. (5/5)

"Disliked my wallet. Wasn’t the same quality that I bought about 4 years ago. I was sold on the color scheme. When I received it, it wasn’t what I expected. Im not sure what happened. I enjoy my old wallet better. Just disappointed."

Hypertough Wallet

"I bought a second wallet only to get another color. The ID holder has proven to be tough. I take my ID in and out very often throughout the day. It has shown no signs of wear. For the overall construction and durability of the wallet, it is definitely tougher than any wallet I have ever owned. It is so tough that it has worn a whole in my pants from where it sits."

Captain's wallet is a winner

"finally time for a change. I've liked firehose material for many years, probably starting with Duluth pants. I ditched my leather wallet, which was a really good one, but I'm very happy with the firehose wallet from RF. I'm glad it wasn't shiny and new looking. This thing has seen some duty. Love it. And it's something that is going to outlast me."

Paul (5/5)

Travel wallet

"This is a great second wallet when I travel. Fits everything in nicely with enough room for travel documents. I suggest The Lieutenant for EDC."
