Before, I was using a simple billfold from Walmart that had lots of compartments for cards. Come Christmas, I was given a Coach slim card holder with money clip made of buffalo leather. Takes a little getting used to, as it doesn't hold much and I've never used a money clip before. Technically, the money clip could work as a simple pocket clip, but I don't like to expose my wallet to the public.
 
I have a simple cowhide tri-fold wallet. It must be over twenty years old and is still going strong. I fear I'll be sorely disappointed in today's wallets once it wears out.
 
either fine leather suit (tall) wallet or a maxped spartan-style cordura wallet...i don't load up my wallet, so transfer between the two isn't a big deal (except i can't fit in the swisscard; makes the leather wallet too wide)...
 
cowskin trifold from Duluth Trading co. (NOT the same folks as Duluth Pack)
 
I have one of those skinny "jacobs ladder" style wallets from our sales rep for Captain Morgans. it dosen't carry so much but it gives me a reason to clean it out more often.

It took some getting used to after 20 years with a cowhide bi-fold. It a welcome change to not have a small rock under your butt every time you sit down.
 

I bought one of those Big Skinny Sport wallets for $11.00 shipped. The clear plastic window popped a stitch when I tried to stuff an over sized card in it. That one particular model (logo inside) looks to be the only model with that shortcoming. The plastic has no border and is stitched directly to the backing. Other than that, it's a great wallet. I'll never go back to a thick wallet. It slips into the front pocket with ease when I'm in Jersey.
 
I've always loved thin wallets. Recently my father-in-law past away (a wonderful father figure for me) and he had several wallets that I have now. I never thought I woul like one, but I have been carrying a wallet with a change pocket with a snap encloser. I carry a small sewing kit, small lock pick kit, tiny scewdriver kit in there. I love it.
