The front-pocket wallet

Certainly this is just too cool for me to own, and a good bit expensive at $30.

But it seems front-pocket wallets are gaining in popularity for those guys who are tired of bustin’ out their back pockets with a George Costanza wallet.

This is the Slimmy, what they call a slim front pocket wallet alternative. It’s kept in your front pocket for security and convenience

But it takes discipline, as the Koyono web site says:

STYLE WARNING: This slim wallet is not a magic trick. If you have a “George Castanza (sic) wallet,” with over 10 credit cards, pictures of distant relatives, and 5 years of financial records, you WILL NOT be able to magically conceal the same contents in the Slimmy.

The Slimmy experience is about security, comfort and minimalism. Carry only what you need so that you are less exposed to theft, less encumbered, and look better.

Would I have the necessary discipline to use a slim front-pocket wallet? Since I do not own one, I really don’t know.

In unrelated news, my birthday’s in early September.

I have always preferred to wear my wallet in the front pocket, so you can imagine how excited I was when I saw this new-fangled wallet featured on your blog. (You probably are thinking “It doesn’t take much to excite John Guthrie, does it?”) But the price! I will wait till Wal-mart sells them for $9.95. I did not know that your birthday is in September, but I did remember that your anniversary is in August. Happy anniversery and birthday.
