    What type of wallet do you carry?

    At dinner tonight with a co-worker we discussed wallets as we each pulled ours out to pay for dinner. He had a Harley Davidson wallet. One of those checkbook type ones, like Landpoke likes with snaps.

    I have a leather bifold I bought from the Quiksilver Outlet store in Provo back in 1997. I don't ever want to have to replace it. I remember buying this wallet to replace my last one and it was a sad day.

    It's similar to this one but just has a barely visible embossed tsunami logo in the corner:



    I tried using a money clip but I don't like keeping anything in my front pocket unless I am headed through a crowd.

    I've got a black faux-leather wallet I bought from Wal-Mart. My old wallet had a zipper and attached by velcro.

      My wallet is basically a small "card case." It's not really even a case. It holds three cards on one side and a few bills on the other side. It's roughly the size of a credit card. Just a tad bigger.

          I've always wanted a wallet like this

            mine is like a thin metal case, almost like what time is describing, except a bit bigger than the dimensions of a credit card.

            I hate carrying anything in my pocket...wallet, keys, brush....

              My friend talked me into getting one of these:

              It's great. Never again will my butt hurt from sitting on my wallet.

                I always type "time" when I mean "tim" too....jinx.

                I've had a really nice Eddie Bauer doeskin wallet for the last 7-8 years and it shows no signs of wearing out. If and when I think I'll look for a Tommy Bahama one on ebay or something. My dad has one the last few years of his life and it was beautiful and always looked brand new and the leather was as soft as the back of your earlobe.

                        I'm a convert to the money clip wallet platform. I've pared down my "must have with me at all times" to a couple of cards, my drivers license and a few business cards. And, of course, a fat wad of cash on the outside.
                        There's no such thing as luck, only drunken invincibility. Make it happen.

                          I carried a leather (probably faux-leather) bi-fold wallet with a flap for many years - similar to this but with a much lower price tag:


                          My wife gave me a Columbia leather bi-fold wallet as a gift a few years ago - probably hoping that I would finally dispose of my old, weathered wallet. When my Old Faithful finally gave up the ghost a few months ago, I pulled out the new Columbia from long-term storage and have been using it since. It's falling apart already.

                          What are you guys using? Any suggestions for practical, long-lasting, inexpensive wallets?

                              I have the ridge, because I got tired of the back pocket worn wallet sign in my pants. But unless I'm rifling through the first three cards on top (which is what I do 90% of the time), it's pretty inconvenient. Also, my kids mock me mercilessly because I have it
