What wallet do you use?

I'm talking about an actual wallet. I've had mine forever and it doesn't hold that many cards, so I've kept some of my cards where cash is supposed to go and I recently decided to get a new one, but after looking for an hour on amazon I couldn't really find something I like, they are either too thick, or I don't like the design or the color or the leather or the brand,  I am superpicky about this lol. So I figured I would ask you, what wallet do you use and why do you like it? I am talking up to $50, but I would be willing to spend a bit more if it is raelly a terrific product.

Mine is the same design as this:

I only hold 2-3 credit cards and one debit card in my wallet. I don't want to look awkward whipping out a wallet with millions of cards in front of my clients, colleagues, or friends. :smileyhappy:

Re: What wallet do you use?

I like simple.. Clean and slim.. Enough room for 4 cards and two folded bills. My DL, debt card, amex, and now adding discover IT. In the center I have one 100 cash bill and one 20 cash bill. Never know when you are going to need Cash the wallet has held up well its a Tumi so I am expecting 5 years at least

I use that metal wallet which was an 'As Seen On TV' - got this mainly because it contains protection against RFID theft.  Conventional wallets do not.

Re: What wallet do you use?

It took a while to find a small wallet that held at least 6 cards. Check out http://www.leatherology.com/item_detail.aspx?ItemCode=LWS01138B10227

 

I got one in a lighter color leather, looks like they are out of that one.

Re: What wallet do you use?

I use a wallet that is very similar to the one that Juels from Pulp Fiction uses. It has a clear ID holder, has 4 cc slots with a little pocket underneat them, it has a divider in the cash section, and, "it's the one that says Bad Mother Fu!@er on it."

[ Edited ]

I use the Hipster wallet from Johnston & Murphy. It's a wide wallet. Instead of because a rectangle, it's a square. This allows you to spread the cards accross a larger area so it cuts down on the thickness. I really like it and it's hard to find a wallet that's black leather with white stitching that doesn't look tacky. The leather is really nice and soft and durable and it has 10 card slots including drivers license, and 2 bill pockets for international bills or receipts(what I use it for)

 

good luck!
