Thin Wallet

I went through the same process just a little while ago. Did some research, and found Aspinal of London. They have absolutely stunning leather goods. I was actually looking for a premium-quality leather A4 padfolio at the time, and I came across their wallet section. They have beautiful slim wallets in several styles that aren't outrageously expensive. I placed an order last Friday, and DHL courier shipping (their only shipping option) across the pond had the order in my hands at 9am this morning (Monday). Now I'm the proud owner of a GORGEOUS new slim wallet (I picked up the tan/espresso slim ID wallet), a matching checkbook (on sale for an amazing $7.50), and the most beautiful A4 pad holder I have ever seen (black with cobalt suede). I couldn't be happier.
Aspinal's attention to detail is immaculate. Everything is handmade, the leather feels and smells incredible, and the colors combinations are beautiful. Their prices aren't absurd, either...there's a shipping/handling/customs duty surcharge that is proportional to the price of your product, the only downside from ordering from the UK (if you could call it that--3 days courier shipping across the Atlantic!?!).

For years, I too have carried a "Costanza." Recently, I switched to the Uncle Albert's Amazing Cash and Card Carrier and I have found it to be superlative in it's function, and excellent in it's design. The best part is the price.
Another source for thin wallets is the watch strap maker Greg Stevens. Click on the photobucket link on the right to see pictures of his products. Username and password for photobucket is gregstraps.
yes, everyone, Micah keeps his wallet in his PDA
Actually, I upgraded my PDA to a little flip-top leather holder that holds a short pen and a micro-legal pad. It has a little flap that will allow me to put in one or two business cards and that's it. I'm trying to eliminate places to stuff reciepts and other flotsam.
but you're hanging on to the jetsam?
Well, I find that the jetsam doesn't take up that much space. In fact, it folds up conveniently and has the added benefit of keeping my keys from rattling too much when I walk.
Thanks. I just ordered the Executive.
You're very welcome. I think you'll be pleased.
Coach is just junk now. It used to be excellent made in america. Now you're lucky if you can find one that isn't made in Romania, bulgaria, or china.
I have a Gucci. Have had it for about 6 years now. Still has that fine leather smell.
sheesh, still no "ADs have gotten the better of me" quips about the title of this thread? You guys are slipping.

If Coach has slipped, what is a better product?
My friend uses one of these metal business card holders with a money clip slid on it. Cards/reciepts go on the inside, and money is attached on the outside. Its very thin at all times.

I use something similar. I got it a couple years ago as a gift. It is a money clip on the front, and the back has an open slot that holds 5-6 cards securely. It took me a while to get used to the lack of space, but then I realized, I rarely use more than 2-3 cards.
I found a link here: http://www.smartmoneyclip.com/?gclid=CJ-CtOS40pUCFRNOagodhgK8ig
Although, seeing the "as seen on TV" logo, I don't know if I can use it anymore in good conscience...
