Screw leather. I've been using one of these for 25 years. I've only tried the original, but they make several styles including some made of leather. I can have 30+ bills of cash in mine along with more than a dozen CC's, ID cards etc. and it is still thinner and lighter than a leather wallet is when empty. They also flex to fit the curve of your butt when you sit. I get 5-7 years out of one. https://www.all-ett.com/collections/mens-wallets/products/nylon-original-wallet
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

True to the fire… Ill recommend something you didnt ask for… Trayvax minimalist ![[Linked Image from lamnia.com]](https://www.lamnia.com/images/525x525/51828_TRAYOGA-104-01.jpg) I dont carry a bulky backpocket leather wallet. No need for a library card, 20 receipts from Sears, ticket stubb from Lynard Skynard concert.. Just an id, atm card, sams, costco and folded up benjamin.. Haven't carried a wallet in my back pocket since 1971. It doesn't take much saddle time to move a wallet to a front pocket. Can't imagine a pickpocket slipping a wallet out of a front pocket! These days, with arthritic hands, I carry a "murse"! A small back pack affair that slings over one shoulder.

I've been using a leather wallet from Von Baer for about 2 years now, and it's been holding up well. The quality of the full grain leather is top-notch. Despite daily use and being stuffed with cards and cash, it still looks practically brand new.

I've been lucky to have a leather wallet last much past a year for my entire life...I got tired of spending $30-60 a year on wallets, and looked at getting a good leather wallet for $100+ or so. I finally made a duct tape wallet a year or so ago, and it finally wore out, so I made another recently. It takes ~20 mins and uses very little duct tape. I'd say though that gorilla tape is a bit too stiff to use, as it doesn't want to bend much, so I wouldn't use it next time. Anyways, I'm happy to spend 20 mins and $2 of tape to make a wallet that will last as long as the wallets that cost lots more.
I did almost buy one of those nylon or firehose wallets, but I tried the duct tape avenue first, and I'm satisfied.

My credit cards keep splitting and I attribute it to the leather wallets I use and carry in my rear pocket. Every leather wallet I have had has broken credit cards.
I am thinking to going to one of those metal/carbon fiber type holders but I don't know what I will do with all the miscellaneous things like fishing license, health insurance cards (3), concealed carry permit, drivers license, bank ID, all in addition to three or 4 credit/debit cards plus a little cash.

+1 for Hanks Belts wallet. I have the bison hide. Not cheap, but darn good.

I bought a new Elephant hide wallet from Bill. I had to cut down all my cards to get them to fit . Well made , except for the cards not fitting. However, When I contacted Bill about the issue ....he would not respond.
