Please share.

Are they suitable as an everyday wallet for carrying mostly credit cards and a few bills?

I love these simple Shell Cordovan wallets (expensive!):

Nice wallet

nathaniel · 1 August 2014, 01:37 PM

Saddleback leather for me.

autohorology · 1 August 2014, 01:38 PM

I like the Patek wallet, but personally everything I buy that's leather is Tumi brand. The best...

GradyPhilpott · 1 August 2014, 01:38 PM

A Rolex wallet?

Here's mine with my Explorer and DJ. It holds an awful lot and it seems I'll get another ten years out of it. I'm guessing that I've had it for about 5-7 years.

It costs about $40 now, probably a little less then.

fmc000 · 1 August 2014, 02:03 PM

I do. I use the green leather wallet everyday. Also I use the old style warranty holder for my transportation badge and for my office electronic key.

Jason71 · 1 August 2014, 02:18 PM

I use one like this and have for a couple years now. I guess I'm a bit nuts. I actually love it.

Love that rolex wallet

padi56 · 1 August 2014, 05:00 PM

I have been using a very simple and very inexpensive Adidas nylon type wallet for around 8 years now and shows no wear.It has plenty of room for all the general every day carry and that's all I need no matter what watch I am wearing.

Quoting myself, my wallet is 0068.08.05 and the warranty holder I use is 30.01.05 .

I believe Dunhill makes watches. Carbon Fiber with leather interior.

jmiicustomz · 1 August 2014, 08:02 PM

I use a fossil wallet though I don't wear their watches. Their wallets belts and other leather goods seem to hold up well and are reasonably priced.

Another vote for saddle back ID wallet.

Urosfan · 1 August 2014, 10:37 PM

Saddle back bifold wallet gets my vote the leather is very soft and breaks in very well

BLACKHORSE 6 · 1 August 2014, 11:33 PM

Check out Saddleback Leather. Be forewarned: getting one of their wallets will only make you want to get one of their bags.

The Libertine · 1 August 2014, 11:54 PM

Burberry. Had for over three years and looks as good as the day I bought it.

Never use a wallet . . .

The big problem for me is when I buy a new wallet I don't have any money left to put in it . . . . ;)

You are SO right. I have a medium duffel, never used. Then liked it so much that I bought one of their larger travel wallets that has a pocket for passports, etc. Also haven't used it either. I do like to sniff 'em though. The leather smells good.

The duffel is so damned heavy that I really don't want to lug it on an airplane - and that's empty.

Oh, I also have one of their front pocket wallets, but it's a little too minimal for me, so I carry a Bosco front pocket wallet with a built-in money clip. I do really like it.

G8RDPM · 2 August 2014, 01:03 PM

Front pocket money clip wallet for me. I have many.
Newest is Gucci! Don't have a Gucci watch!

Bisquitlips · 2 August 2014, 01:18 PM

OMG!!!! Not me!!!

I need something of substance that my beautiful wife can get into and rob me blind!

FiftyTwoEighty · 2 August 2014, 01:21 PM

Mont Blanc, from top to bottom:

15 year old credit card
5 year old passport
20 year old billfold/check book

Cash is always in a money clip.

East Bay Rider · 2 August 2014, 01:28 PM

I own one though I don't use it.

GradyPhilpott · 2 August 2014, 01:31 PM

Well, I'll be....

There really is such a thing as a Rolex wallet.

applebook · 3 August 2014, 10:53 AM

You've sold me on Saddleback.

I'll go for the small bifold in chestnut (will ask for the thicker, stiffer kind).

applebook · 15 August 2014, 12:04 PM

Got my Saddleback today. Impressed with the quality, especially for $75 shipped (no Customs taxes!). However, I specifically requested an extra thick, double pigskin lined example but got the newer, thinner model. It's probably for the best anyway because these are much slimmer, and I don't need extra lining in the bill compartment since I will rarely use it.
