I have a Fossil bi-fold wallet that has a slid out carrier for your ID and insurance cards. I got it around 10 years ago and it still looks great. I especially like the way the leather has worn into the shape of the cards I keep in there, how it sits in my pocket, etc. I've gotten it completely soaked a handful of times and it looks like I'll have no problem getting another 10 years out of it. Might be worth checking out for you.

OP, I think the message of the thread here is that you're going to have to go shopping and find something that you like. Everyone thinks their choice of wallet is the best, and most of us have no idea why anyone would ever consider something different :)

I like my wallet in the front pocket, and this has been great.

the way the cash is tucked in there seems kinda weird, like you'd have to take the whole wad out to pull out a specific bill.

The cash is folded in half. Much better than a trifold wallet where you get curly bills. You have access from the top and side, so you can pull out just the bill you want. I've been using it for a year now, love it. It's much thinner, even with a bunch of cards in it, than a regular trifold wallet.

this.

this vs trifold( aka butt brick)

this takes the cake. I have one and love it. just make sure u dont buy from bealls florida, they suck fucking cock balls. get it from ebags

After having a front pocket wallet for years I went back to the traditional back pocket wallet -- the trick to having a really good proper wallet that won't irritate as you sit for prolonged hours is to get a bi-fold that's rather wide/flat instead of a tri-fold that's like sitting on a rock.
