Let's see your wallet!
This is my lovely Montblanc...

My 6 years old eastpak :
Bellroy Slim Sleeve
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.
I am supper picky about my wallet I want to go back to a bi fold but I need a place to stash a key or two in my wallet were I know it wont fall out this is what make it hard for me to find a wallet I like.
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

A saddleback bifold wallet (medium) in chestnut.
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 !
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: Filson

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.
