 makes life simple October 1, 2008
T. VanMeter (Hannibal, mo)
After years of sitting on a bulky wallet, I found myself leaving my wallet in the car seat, dash, microwave or even my desk, and then looking for it when I needed. This is great. I can carry it in my front jeans pocket and barely notice it. It disappears in slacks or cargo's and even sweat pants, and heavy enough that it stays in the bottom of my pocket. I look forward to carrying it in the summer with shorts. Life just became simpler and more comfortable. Gone are the days when my wallet bulged with ATM receipts. The magnet which secures the bills is more than enough. I am able to carry a bank card, credit card, work ID, insurance card, hunting/fishing license, and a couple of business cards. If it was 1/16th of an inch wider, I could carry a few more cards, but that would eliminate everything I like about it. I have actually thought my father misguided me by teaching me to carry a wallet (bifold or trifold), and then noticed he too carries a money clip. The leather work seems very good, and its appearance is stylish. In very small print near the bottom is imprinted the Bosca name and logo, which I anticipate will fade away in time. In other words I don't advertise the company name, just the product. The price is a bit steep compared to others, however I am in no way upset with the wallet I received.
 Strong magnet to hold cash September 5, 2008
Stevemorris (Mankato MInn.)
Overall, I am pleased with this product. What I like the most is the strong magnet to hold my cash. It's nice to not worry about my cash slipping out. (This was my problem with my old money clip.)
However, the one thing I don't like about the product is when I take it out of my pocket, every one can see how much cash I have me. Much different than a wallet.
To boot, it has more of a feel of a wallet than my money clip had, which I used for many years. This product is a sweet little wallet/money clip hybrid.
Furthermore, it has a wonderful location to store business cards. It can easily store a dozen or so business cards with no problem.
The quality appears to be excellent. I am anticipating many years of wear and tear from it. As the cliche goes, you get what you pay for. It's more expensive than your average wallet or money clip, but in the end, it's worth it because it will last years longer than its cheaper counterpart.
In short, great product and I would recommend it.
Bosca quality May 7, 2008
J. D. Fuller (Texas)
All of my leather accessories (wallet, card cases, portfolios, etc.) are Bosca products. Bosca obliterates the competition with their quality.
Because the leather is only the finest, it looks even better as it ages. I have no doubts that my Bosca items will not only outlive me; they will probably outlive my grandchildren!
Buying a Bosca product is like making a lifetime investment. You will never have to replace it unless you decide you just want something new and different.
Looks like a million bucks February 2, 2008

This is an excellent front pocket wallet - the fit and finish really leaves nothing to be desired. The first thing that struck me was the quality of the leather (I bought the cognac version), and even after a year of wear, it still looks great (some might say better)
The wallet also forced me to be a bit disciplined about what I was carrying around. I've managed to fit up to 9 plastic cards in it + business cards, and a few misc items. But it is really geared towards the minimalist in all of us.
It also has a strong magnetic money clip, which is able to handle the varying amounts of money I carry on me from day-to-day. A common complaint with tension or spring loaded clip is that if you stuff it with too much cash, it will soon start to lose its grip on the currency, especially once it has expanded to a certain width.
This wallet is not designed for anyone who is uncomfortable having their cash in plain sight (as with any money clip). Also, if you like walking around with everything from your pets mugshot to yesteryears receipts, this wallet is certainly not going to work for you. If all you need to get by is your license, some plastic, and a few business cards, then you will not be disappointed.
Best slim wallet October 4, 2005

I bought this after my wallet was stolen. A friend of mine had one so I got it. Make sure to get the real leather version, not the plastic one. This is the best idea out for a slim wallet. With all the other crap I keep in my pockets (cell phone & handsfree, car keys, USB key, PDA) I needed a slimmer wallet. Right now my bosca is holding 6 credit cards. It can hold more. This Bosca is nice quality. Highly recommended. I should have gotten my initials embroidered in it though.
