What's the greatest thin, front-pocket wallet out there?

[UncleWai]

I like Lean Pocket's philly's cheese steak.

good thread, I think I might have to get a slimmy.. the all-ett one looks nice too, but I have a feeling I won't like the sound as described here.. heh.

Those things are great...tried one the other day at my bro's place, taste has come a looooong way

Am I the only one who wasn't even aware they made front pocket specific wallets?
Seems like a good idea... don't know if my keys or cell phone would want more company in my front pockets though.
But I'm in the market for a new wallet anyway... el cheapo from Walmart has served its purpose and is fading & falling apart now. Maybe I'll consider one of these.

I've had the koyono slimslimmy for almost two years now, fantastic wallet and forces me to keep things prudent. All I carry are my two cc's, drivers license and some cash.

Cell phone & wallet in right pocket, keys & pen in left

So how is using it in actual experience, like double-folding bills? It seems like you'd always be fumbling around trying to fold stuff up and put it in.

Do you like that wallet? I've never heard of it but it looks really cool...

Do people like this more than the Slimmy, or no?

I can do 1 CC, 1 debit/ATM, couple of bills, Drivers license, ID for work, car insurance card... bare minium i suppose...

that's my biggest problem right now.. in addition to that, i have health care card, Rx card (that i don't really need), rewardzone, blockbuster, AAA, grocery card.... too much crap. my friend has those magic flip type wallets... it's nearly 3" thick.

I typically carry a few bills and a few cards at a time, and I carry my wallet in my front pocket.

What do you use?

The one you buy at the Gay Men store i'm sure.. Wallet goes in the back pocket big boy, always has.

Not only does a wallet cause you to sit weird, it tends to ruin your pants over an extended period of time. I've got faint marks on several pairs of slacks due to prolonged sitting with my old wallet.

I have this same one (found it from a thread a few years ago) and really love it.

Yeah. It seems it's been discontinued as Amazon canceled my order

Went with something similar from Ebags - Text

They also have something similar also made by Dopp but in alligator...which I don't really dig...

Damn, I should have bought two for when this one wears out.

But, looking at the picture of the 72 series and comparing it to the 88 series one I have, I really can't see a difference.

Sweet. Can't go wrong for just $12.95 either

My grandma came over today and gave me an eel-skin money clip thingy with card holder. Don't know how good eel skin is, but I'm willing to be it's just above banana skin.

Minimum I can do is:

Work ID
Drivers License (I suppose I could, in theory leave it in the car...but that's asking for trouble)
Debit Card
$20 bill

Car insurance stays in the car
Health care card is tied to work ID
Store-specific cards...I can grab in the morning if I'm planning on going there later in the day
Roadside assist phone number stored in my phone, along with my member number
Grocery card, I can punch my phone number in



Man...this small wallet business is gonna mean a whole lot more planning

 

[Malak]

My cards are - Driver's License and Debit Card. No need for anything else in my wallet. I actually have a flip wallet with space for 2 cards, tiny. Can show ID without pulling it out, so it's convenient too. Since I don't usually carry cash it works, but I may use this money clip I just got for when I do(like poker night).

Well, I need my work ID or else they won't let me into work

Also, the cash is for emergencies...what would you do if you were at a sandwich shop in New Jersey and they said their credit card machine was being serviced? ...and they already made your sandwich :Q

I have one car insurance card in the car.. the other i carry. There have been instances when I needed to know my info.. heh. And I can't trust my phone to hold anything because I know it'd die when I needed it.. haha. I'll probably just have a sheet of paper business card sized and put all the important relevant emergency stuff on it.

That looks so insanely dorky.

Says the guy with 6,000+ posts on a computer forum :Q

But I 100% agree with you

Edit: This thing looks awesome! I'm using a candy dish to chuck my keys/pen/wallet/cell phone/etc. in at the end of the day right now...although $30 is kinda high, I can build it for like $2 lol.

Wait, you have more post - hypocrite!

I'll try to add something constructive and useful.. I had a coach wallet that i loooved and a D&G wallet that I have now. Both get me complimented when I take them out but, my favorite wallet of all time? A $30 Fossil wallet... So, yeah.. Go to macy's. Try them all out.. Then order your favorite one online..

 

[Minjin]

Just get an All-Ett. Its amazing how much stuff you can fit in it and still be half the thickness of a leather wallet. I carry my full size version in the back pocket but do occasionally use the front pocket. Either work fine.

Pot calling the kettle black huh Yeah high-class style is overrated...my favorite watch is my Timex clone with a 6 vibrating alarms...it looks like one of those cheap $3.99 Timex watches kids get from K-Mart, but you can set the alarm to buzz rather than beep. Meh.

Please.. I dated a vegan chick.. For the love of all things holy, PLEASE purchase something that resulted in the death of an animal. I don't care if you buy the synthetic all-ett wallet and then off a poodle... Just don't let those PETA b*tches win!

Don't get me wrong, I really loved the coach wallet and chicks always notice the dolce and gabanna... but the fossil was disposable - I wouldn't get depressed if I lost it. and fossil has a nice blend of fashion consciousness and affordability.
