The Wallet to carry the minimum. 
I ended up purchasing this through fleabay which holds 3 Cards Credit/whatever a nice concettina  section which will easily hold some folded cash and some loose change.

You're welcome -- I'm really glad you like the wallet as much as I do. You have a very special piece of black marbled shell there. Excited to see how that breaks in!

Is it shining up for you yet?

Looks like any other elcheapo wallet after getting beat up in the back of you pants. How much money did you waste on this wallet?

I like the brooks brothers wallet better, the one shown up a couple of posts, i assume you are posting these cause you are inspired by it, the 2 tone colors makes the wallet look for refined and classy. the chester mox one tone wallet looks like a craft project to the concerning eye. an almost-could-have-been wallet.

Why do you like the BB one better? Purely aesthetics or do you think the construction/QC is better at BB?
