Wallets, Chains, and Reins
-
The WC is nice, but to be honest I found the vertical slots pretty cumbersome…
I find them practical. I open my wallet to use the RFID reader for sydney trains and know I can wave the wallet about without worrying about if the cards will stay put or not.
Interesting… I can see that, but question: has anyone ever had cards or bills fall out of their wallet?
What are you going after @grandmasterben ?

As usual, something flat head…. A billfold that hits all the criteria for me. Something that is surprisingly hard, I haven't seen another wallet that does that.. Just gotta wait a few more months!

I love those studded TFH billfolds

In all honesty, I have wallets to last me for generations. However, those Tush wallets look really good. I am still waiting to see what my insurance will be doing next year but if I sell some stuff I might look into a Tush cardcase or long wallet. Thanks to Davito & Graeme for posting pics, both pieces are beyond excellent! Only question is where to cop? I think Nokipple used to have them, I will start there….

Yeah some of the $200 local brand wallets, as well as Ralph Lauren. Not sure either was due to just the slot direction, however, seeing the slots on the W&C a direction that makes it impossible gave warm and fuzz

I found some wallets by a Russian brand last night.
They're all hand made and sewn, and the prices are reasonable too.

19 months in…
10 months in with the WC now, had the camera out, took some good snaps. It's really coming along!!!!
5 months, thought to snap a picture tonight;
My daily wallet, after 2 other wallets throughout the year, I've settled onto this for at least a year. Really like how it's progressing, now @ 3 months of daily usage;

Thank @Black Orchid I'm enjoying using it greatly. After a few mis-starts with other wallets (Red Moon / Kawatako), good to finally give something the effort it deserves.

@Cutlasshound it's not thin mate. After 19 months it's just starting to settle down, but it'll never be a thin wallet. If jeans have small pockets, I still have trouble getting the wallet in and out. I keep minimal cash in there, but do keep about 9 cards in the 6 slots so it could be a little thinner, but it's never going to be skinny.

@Snowy Valid point, everyone's got their own approach!
I might try an get some pictures of mine up sometime soon, the leather inside is still very light.
Realized I'm coming up on about 6 months of use.
It's a beast of a wallet, but it's become one of my favorite things that I own. -

Thanks for your advices,

Sterling silver, shell cordovan outer with natural calf inner, tendon construction, and the perfect size for a rein. This is an heirloom quality good, hard to find better. I guess you could always bedazzle it, but I'd lose the gems IMO.

These wallets are by Felix Comploj. I don't know how to get in touch with him, but he does have an Instagram stream. The one at the bottom left strikes me as what you're looking for @Simoon.
