Ya bet.That appears to be about the thickness of a deck of cards. That is a lot of stretch... Thanks for your info, experience, and insights.

liked this one too. had some features i was looking for, and the price was also right. now i get to compare and contrast ....I bought one of these about 6 months ago and its wearing like iron. I've got 6 credit cards, d/l and insurance cards. went from a wallet about 2" thick to this. I still have my old wallet that has other very seldom used cards. I'm sold on this skinny minimalist wallet deal.

You prolly got too mucho cashola in that old wallet. I can help you out a tad...brother?I noticed my regular leather wallet was ripping out after a few years use. I notice that I carry way too much stuff in there. What is a practical alternative to this?
Man bag? I don't know if I would routinely carry something like this. Fanny pack/pouch? Perhaps. These things are kind of foreign to me. What have you all done to accomplish this?
I ordered what amounts to a passport case that you can wear around your neck or on your belt. I believe I can keep my smart phone inside this as well. It wasn't expensive, but I don't know if this will work. What I envision happening is that I want to reduce the wallet contents to a bear minimum, but have the option of carrying all the stuff that I normally have inside my wallet in a fashion that I am willing to do. Not sure what that means exactly.
an interesting thought. maybe i need to look more into my mobile pay options....We are getting closer to a time when an actual wallet will be a thing of the past, some states already have digital driver's licenses. I can see more forms of ID being on a mobile device, especially with face or fingerprint recognition. MY ATM and CC are in my Apple Wallet and I no longer carry a physical ATM card. More retailers are accepting ApplePay or some form of pay app. I use ApplePay online and in person, it's easy and shields your actual credit card number from hackers.

thanks for the info.I would advise caution when considering apps, some do not protect your CC numbers. Look at those that can be loaded with funds without exposing your CC number to retailers. With ApplePay, which I'm more familiar with, the code sent to the near field device is only good for that particular transaction and exact amount, so even if a hacker gets that number it's no good to them. Look for that type of app.
