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)

 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.
 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??

Great so far, really enjoying having a front pocket wallet, you can barely tell you're carrying it in your pocket.
Great little wallet January 18, 2008
James Jorden
This little wallet has solved my problem of a huge wallet. I don't need all of the junk I was carrying in my big wallet and this one doesn't get in my way and is so comfortable to use.
Best front pocket wallet ever December 11, 2007

I had been looking for a new wallet for months before I discovered the Slimmy. I used to carry a full size wallet in my back pocket and found I began experiencing lower back pain. I changed to a card wallet in my back pocket and a money clip in my front pocket. This worked for a period in time.
I read ALL of the reviews here on Amazon and was cautious regarding some of the negative comments about consumers experiences with the Slimmy. I left it for a week and found myself coming back to read the reviews again. I decided it was worth a try and if I did not like it, it could go back. I purchased the Red and Black version - I have been using the Slimmy for two months now and have decided this is the best wallet I have ever purchased. Typically I do not write reviews for products, but I have been so happy with this purchase I wanted to share my experience.
Some reviews complained about items 'falling out' of the leather folds - this is not a problem. Some reviews complain the wallet is too expensive - then don't buy it. This is MUCH cheaper than doctors visits for lower back pain. Some complain it does not hold enough - I carry 2 credit cards, ATM card, drivers license, 2 pictures, medical and dental insurance cards, work ID card and about $300 cash in twenties. I could probably get another 2 cards in if I wanted to.
Do not hesitate to purchase this wallet if you are looking for a slim alternative to a full size back pocket wallet. If you carry 10-15 cards and like to stuff 20 singles into your wallet - I would suggest you look for something else.
