Product Description
As Seen in the NY Times: The Slimmy is an ultra slim wallet alternative specifically designed 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 traditional wallets. It is 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 eliminates the need for folds and provides the easiest way to store and access items. This patented design conforms firmly to the contour of your currency, credit cards, driver's license, business cards and receipts for maximum slimness, conforming more tightly with use. Slimmy is a break from tradition and preferred by G.A.I. (Geniuses, Artists, and Innovators). STYLE WARNING: This wallet is not a magic trick. If you have a George Castanza-like 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. American Express has warned travelers, particularly men, to carry fewer credit cards and receipts in their wallets to guard against identity theft. Carrying your wallet in the front pocket further reduces your risk of any theft. The American Chiropractic Association warns against keeping a wallet in your back pocket because it can cause Sciatica. A Slimmy can help, but you have to want to change. If you are over 30 years old, have a hard time trying new things, or are resistant to change, this may be too hard for you and we ask that you consider sticking to your current plan. Slimmy: 3.875" (L) x 2.875" (W) x 0.312" (H)

5 out of 5 stars Good solution if a bi-fold is too fat and a money clip is ruining your cards   October 24, 2008
J. Glessner (Erie, PA USA)
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 recommended by a friend who has used one for quite a while, and I can see why.

Be warned: this is not for those of you who need to carry 15 credit cards or photos of your family. I keep my ID, my bank card, a few plain paper store discount cards, and some cash in mine and it's the perfect fit.

I'm quite disappointed with the design of this product. When multiple 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 do not regard it as a replacement for a regular wallet--but it's fine if you just want to carry a couple of cards and some cash.


5 out of 5 stars Couldn't ask for more   August 30, 2008

This product worked as advertised. It's as simple as that. I have 4 cards in the middle slip and 6 cards in the outer slip and still have room for bills in the last slip.


2 out of 5 stars great idea- quality not up to par with the price   June 14, 2008

The purchased a slimmy about a year ago- the design works exactly like advertised and you will be surprised how much you can actually fit in such a small space!

About a month or so after using it on a daily basis, I began to notice a problem where the interior fabric seemed to be separating from the leather exterior, causing ripples in the fabric on the inside. I contacted Koyono about this and they sent me a replacement and asked for pictures from the first to send to their manufacturer. While I though this was an isolated mistake, the replacement slimmy also has the same defect- the interior fabric is no longer tight and has actually gotten worse than the first. This may or may not bother you, but for the price, I believe they should have worked this out.


has anyone else had this problem??



4 out of 5 stars Great wallet, loving it so far   June 13, 2008

Great so far, really enjoying having a front pocket wallet, you can barely tell you're carrying it in your pocket.
