Got a question. I carry a normal bifold type wallet. Im constantly checking my wallet when im out and about, to make sure i havent let a credit card,etc. slip out of the wallet. Ive been thinking about getting a zip type wallet, the size of the breast pocket type wallets. The problem is,due to its size, WHERE would you wear one of these things? lol Front, back pocket? Inside another type bag???

How would a card slip out? If you've overstretched the leather of card holder that much then just get a new bifold. All my wallets are a few years old now and I have more fear of not being able to get a card out than of one slipping out!

Personally wouldnt carry a wallet like that photoed, I would need to see how thick it is but based on its other dimensions it looks like one for the inside pocket of a jacket or one to be left in a bag if its too thick

Ive dumped cards on the floor at times with my current wallet. I might go with a bifold with a zipper instead of the one above.

Sound like user error.

That type of wallet would most likely be carried in a breast pocket. It isn't the typical Japanese-style long wallet that you'd carry in a back pocket with a chain -- it might look out of place if you did that.

There are smaller zip wallets that you could use that might suit you better if you're worried about losing a card. Best bet is to just get a new wallet though as your cards shouldn't be falling out... especially if it is in your pocket.
