I hate my wallet, it's a nasty, trifold wallet, it's poorly made, and black. I don't like black leather. I'm planning on getting one of these in the near future

I like the slimness of this. However, isn't it uncomfortable to put in or take out cash??

Eh, why not?
 

 
I got it from Etsy.com and it is made of wool. I grew old of leather wallets wearing quick or being destroyed by accidentally getting washed, so I opted for something different and have been please for about a year already. :)

Looks very simple and clean.

Actually it is true to find the one that I like was very hard...the one i have right now, I am not 100% satisfied..

On the belroy slim sleeve:
 
No, as long as you dont mind folding your bills and stacking them on top of each other, its not very difficult to put cash in or out. This wallet isn't meant for someone who carries 10-15 notes with with, i usually carry only 20 or 30 bucks with me at a time. 
 
 
I am thinking about getting their smallest wallet for when i am out bar hopping !

I just went to bellroy's website, and i kinda like it lol
 
My wallet is bulky... 99% of time all i use is ID, credit card....
 
Nice quality leather... various sizes...
 
The smallest wallet you are talking about is "card sleeve wallet"?
 
ps. thinking of buying one from them lol

A word of caution; the Saddleback wallets are very thick in your pocket, and I have heard numerous reports of people's credit cards snapping inside them because of the stiff leather.
I think they just recently switched to using a lower quality grade of leather on a number of their products as well.

I have some Saddleback products and really like them, but I don't know that I would buy one of their wallets.


These days I am leaning towards credit card holders rather than full size wallets, and in five years, you probably won't even need them as your phone will have replaced your cards.

I have been looking around for a new card holder for a while now, and have it narrowed down to a few. I can't speak to their quality from personal experience, but you might want to check out:
It's surprising that, when you would expect the products to be hand-picked for display, so many wallets and card cases show poor construction even just from looking at their high resolution photos online. Of course you can't really evaluate quality unless you see them in person, but I haven't heard a bad thing about any of these so far.

Wow, how do you snap a card inside a stiff flat object 0.o
And I always carry cash, I hate paying for minor purchases with plastic.
