Slimmy Slim Front Pocket Wallet Alternative review:
As Seen in the NY Times: The Slimmy is an super thin wallet alternative exactly intended to enable people on the go to keep their wallet in a front pocket, offering better security and faster access. Both simple and sleek, the Slimmy is an excellent choice for any occasion, eliminating the bulk and bulge of conventional wallets. It’s made from the highest quality full grain leather for a soft feel and maximum durability. Slimmy has three, side by side compartments stitched along one side and the bottom. The unstitched side of the Slimmy removes the need for folds and gives the simplest way to store and access things. This patented design conforms firmly to the contour of your currency, credit cards, driver’s license, business cards and receipts for maximum slimness, compliant more tightly with use. Slimmy is a break from tradition and favored by G.A.I. Geniuses, Artists, and Innovators. STYLE WARNING: This wallet isn’t a magic trick. If you have a George Castanza like wallet, with over ten credit cards, pictures of remote relatives, and five years of financial records, you won’t be able to magically hide the same contents in the Slimmy. The Slimmy experience is about security, comfort and minimalism. Carry only what you need so that you’re less exposed to theft, less encumbered, and look better. American Express warned travelers, especially men, to carry fewer credit cards and receipts in their wallets to guard against identity theft. Carrying your wallet in the front pocket more decreases your risk of any theft. The American Chiropractic affiliation warns against keeping a wallet in your back pocket because it can cause Sciatica. A Slimmy may help, but you must want to change. If you’re over 30 years old, have a hard time trying new things, or are tolerant to change, this can be too hard for you and we ask that you think about sticking to your current plan. Slimmy: 3.875″ L x 2.875″ W x 0.312″ H

Slimmy Slim Front Pocket Wallet Alternative reviews:
Rating: Fantastic product
I have had my Slimmy std. Size about two years and it’s the best wallet I have ever had. Previous wallets were generally Coach single folds with 6 8 card slots, all full.
My Slimmy has only minor wear after daily use, typically in the front pocket of jeans or shorts. The wallet also fits perfectly in the front pocket of my dress shirts.
Usual contents: 10 20 bills folded in half, the day’s credit card receipts, two credit cards, driver’s license, health insurance card, dental card, auto insurance card. Credit cards stay secure in the center slot, bills in front, the rest in the back slot. That is it, and I have never wanted for more than that when out and about. I keep the rest of my cards at home in a thick card wallet I got from Levenger.
I’ve considered the Slim Slimmy but do not think that I could like folding my bills twice, otherwise it seems better.
Product feel, finish are excellent. Something I really like is that it doesn’t have a plastic window these to me look tacky, discolor and do not hold up. It also does not have a money clip, something else I am not fond of but that the other mini wallets seem to have.
I’ve never lost the Slimmy nor any of its contents. When driving it nestles neatly in a slot in the console of my car. When traveling it slips into the front zippered pocket of my Tumi computer bag neatly. On the rare occasion when I wear a suit, keeping my wallet in my shirt pocket is a more comfy and nice choice made possible by the Slimmy’s size.
On rare trips out of the country I use one of the old Coach wallets to keep extra cards, currency and traveler’s checks. I leave it at the hotel while I am walking around with the Slimmy. Someone else on here mentioned a foreign currency size could be nice, I agree.
The reason for the lengthy review? Though I do not need another one, I came on here to purchase another Slimmy just because I like it so much. Instead of spending the money I decided to just write about it instead.

I have owned this wallet for nearly three years now. I have it with me nearly generally. I do not think I am especially rough, but I wore out a phone that I kept in my other front pocket in about a year. This wallet has held up well, it is got many minor wear and tear, but the functionality is undiminished and I would not be surprised if this lasted me some number of more years. And in that time I have had no issues with things falling out of the wallet.
Also, I keep my credit card and atm card beside each other and I have had no issues with the magnetic strips not working.
Just because most negative reviewers seem to miss this, it isn’t a common wallet. It does not fold open, and it does not hold many. Do not get me wrong, it holds plenty, you just may need a change of mindset. I now use one side for $20s, the other side for small bills, and the center slot for cards I do not use business cards. I am an avid minimalist, I only have two keys on my keyring, and no keychains so I only have three cards, my drivers license, a credit card, and an atm card. You can be thinking, “but I carry more cards than that”. My advice could be, carry less cards. I keep my work ID at my desk at work. I keep my grocery store cards in my car, because how frequently do I go grocery shopping without my car? If you have more than one car, those cards are free, get one for each car. If you have a card you just use to get gas, think about leaving it in your glovebox depending on how safe an area you live in. If you have a rewards card for a restaurant you only eat lunch at, think about leaving that card at your desk till lunch.
If you really need many of cards with you at all times, this is not the wallet for you. I’d say about 6 7 cards could be the most it may handle. In case you are inquisitive, for bills I’d say 15 20 on a side is about the maximum.
Rating:
Too simple, not enough pockets and it may have been intended better. Its most likely not for me, my money slips out. If you have some stuff in your wallet then this won’t work, if you do not have money, cards or IDs then this wallet is for you.
Rating:
I needed a solution to my increasingly fat wallet not in a good way, sadly, but money clips were either too rigid or they left my cards and ID scarred from sliding them in and out.
The slimmy was suggested by a friend who used one for a pretty while, and I can see why.
Be warned: this isn’t for those of you who have to carry 15 credit cards or photos of your family. I keep my ID, my bank card, some plain paper store discount cards, and many cash in mine and it is the perfect fit.
Rating:
I am quite disappointed with the design of this product. When many credit cards are placed in the same pocket, they tend to chafe against one another, with the result that the magnetic stripes on the cards can become worn and damaged. I don’t regard it as a substitute for a regular wallet but it is good if you just want to carry a couple of cards and many cash.
