Chains, Reins, Leashes, Wallets & Hooks

I've been drooling over Iron Heart wallets for quite sometime. I wear a standard-sized tan Coach leather wallet in my jeans rear pocket (yes, like a man does – so sue me -- you guys have probably picked up already that I'm no femme, though I hope I don't look like a man either, because I definitely don't want that -- I'm more of a tomboy). I've had this Coach wallet for about 6 years and it still looks great -- it's aged well. Shubha doesn't do purses (or dresses either). I carry all my shit in a backpack. But, how does one wear THIS wallet ? It seems like it would look weird in a rear jeans pocket, not to mention if worn in the rear pocket, it would be an easy target for pick-pocket-ers. Is this a wallet you carry in your backpack, your jacket, or what ? If so, then you wouldn't get the nice "wallet wear" on the rear end pocket of your Iron Heart jeans. I've noticed in all my Iron Heart jeans (even the non-selvedge variety like the Black Cyclist) -- the outline of my wallet is showing nicely in my jeans back pocket -- which I love.

I have the medium wallet & it wears great in the back pocket. I have a wallet chain attached that I modified from another brand -still saving up for that 1000+ sterling silver iron heart wallet chain ;)- might get it by this summer if I don't see any new products up soon. so I guess that chain deters would be thieves.
oh on a side note the wallet is really thick so it's almost like sitting on a booster chair & it gives the impression that I a bit of junk in the trunk
on a side note, Giles when are we getting a preview of the spring/summer 2010 items?????
I am hearing news of short sleeves & some lids -

I am hearing news of short sleeves & some lidsDon't want to give too much away until I am sure of delivery schedules. But in brief, a load of new western flannels, a few more mini-herringbone westerns, a heavy chambray work shirt, a 21oz hat, denim herringbone logger pants, some short sleeves. That do for starters?

@shubharamani:
OMG, I fucking want it ! Tell me when G…tell me when ! That one won't stick outta my ass so I won't need chains and shit. I want it ! PS. Why did the title change from "New to "Mew" ?
It changed from Mew to New when I realised I was a complete dork and thought I better correct it.
I think that the natural calf one will be fab. I did ask that the prototype above be natural calf, and hey, I got black cordovan (Scarlett and Bill, all is forgiven). Anyway, I love it so it will be in a hip pocket near me very soon. In light of Beatles comments above re: coin compartment, what is the general consensus?

Giles, The coin pocket looks cool although I am a bit wary of its functionality. I am wondering what the thought was behind this type of construction. But overall, the wallet looks great though. A wonderful option for those of us who do not use wallet chains!
