I was catching up on the messenger bag thread, and the subject of where to carry your wallet was brought up. I am getting tired of A) the feeling of sitting on my wallet and B) the look of a stupid rectangle bulge in my non-JTKSU-approved pants. What do i do?

Stop carrying cash and get a bifold wallet.

Front pocket

I have a bifold but have been considering money-cliping it. My problem is I carry 4 different credit cards, gym card, health insurance card, DL and bank card in my wallet. I don't know if a moneyclip can hold all that. will probably just get a new bifold. someone suggest a good one for me.

I carry in front pocket at all times. I kind of have a costanza wallet and can't sit on it.

That's about what i use. Very small and doesn't hurt you butt so much.

I've also always had bifold

One of these in the front pocket. Harder for a hobo to pick it from you.

This one is 1/16" thick. You might be pushing it with that many cards, but it still should be better than a money clip.

I have too many cards. I need to be able to see the tops of all of them so that layout won't work.

sd, I have a bunch of extras at my place that you can select from next time you're pak'n here. MIR has first dibs though. And I can't wait for him to chime in on this thread. He's #TeamCheckbook and #TeamAsAResultMyCheckbookOftenGetsLeftAtGasStationsAndGasStationParkingLots

pissclams · « **Reply #11 on:** February 24, 2012, 10:32:43 AM »

shut up. this is the answer- link

it easily holds ~10-12 cards and has the money clip on back. the one i currently have is still going strong 5 years in.

SD, look at Saddleback's credit card wallet

mocat · « **Reply #14 on:** February 24, 2012, 10:36:02 AM »

yeah...i dont want to carry my wallet in my front pocket. those pockets are reserved for phone/keys/ipod/whatever. I will consider a slimmer bifold and take a long hard look at which cards i absolutely need in my wallet

steve dave · « **Reply #15 on:** February 24, 2012, 10:38:06 AM »

oh my

jdagg2003 · « **Reply #16 on:** February 24, 2012, 10:42:03 AM »

Try to find a coach slimfold, they are discontinued but the best imo.
EDIT: I just saw your Credit card requirement so this probably wont work well for you, but don't get an ugly Artist Collaboration series one

Meh...too cutesy for me.

And if you gave it some thought, probably too cutesy for you, Mr. SD.

Also, i've had the same wallet for 5 years. Is that weird?

Had mine for over 13 years until it started falling apart. I don't deal well with change.

I can't remember the wallet I had before this one. I must be getting close to a decade with this one.

Where does everyone carry business cards?

I have a couple emergency ones in my wallet but have a business card holder for when I know I'll be seeing people.
