    Wallets?

    Looking for a new wallet.

    Doesn't have to be dressy or flashy or super tactical, just something that can hold a few cards, cash, and a clear area for an ID. I'd prefer no velcro and magnets are a no-go obviously.

    Any ideas?

    I have one of these. I'm quite happy with mine - holds a couple cards and cash. Bought one for my brother last year - holds a couple cards but only holds cash if its folded (he doesn't normally carry much or any cash) - he's a lawyer and is still using his, so I presume he's happy with his, too.

    But it doesn't have a clear area for your ID to get stuck in. So it rather falls flat there. But the operative word is that it doesn't get stuck. So I don't mind not having no clear area.

    Never posted in the the GD forum, but couldn't resist this topic as I'm very hard on wallets and typically wear through most of my travel/vacation pieces within 6-12 months. Check out Saddleback leather: http://www.saddlebackleather.com/frontpocketidwallet. Initially, I purchased 10 (!) of the front pocket ID wallets thinking I'd replace one every six months. To my surprise I'm still on the first after three years. One caveat- they're a little tight in the cash pocket and you may have difficulty cramming more than ten bills in there.

    I have one of the Saddleback ID wallets, and after more than a year there's no real wear on it. Great wallet for the price.

    I like the Tri-Fold...but I'm considering their bi-fold/gentleman's wallet. I'm of the belief that wallets should be leather so that they keep getting better with age until they one day need retired.

    Nope- been there, done those. To be fair, the sailcloth was stout, but the nylon edging worked loose. Probably would have been covered under warranty, but I didn't want to deal with the hassle of sending it back and wearing another out when seeking a better solution.

    Here's my Saddeback after three+ years. Note the thickness of the leather and the integrity of the stitching. IMG_3412_zps2c217eec.jpg
