Front Pocket Wallets

Same thing that would happen if it was your wallet... It's gone. There is obviously a risk with having it as part of your phone. I've had mine for almost a year and love it and have no desire to carry a separate wallet anymore. Plus I carry a lot less with me, license, a credit card and a debit card and leave the rest at home.
I have a real life George Costanza type situation. My backs been hurting me for a while. I caved and went to the Dr. Apparently my hips were severely out of alignment. Dr adjusted me but said I can no longer sit on my wallet or cross my legs.
I've had a back pocket wallet forever. Do any of you carry a front wallet or money clip type wallet? If so have any good cheap recommendations?
Do you mean chiropractor? Cuz they aint doctors. And yes, front wallet user for years. I have the kind that has two slots for cards. I carry 4 credit/debit cards my driver's license, hunting/fishing license and a couple insurance cards. It has a leather 'flap' deal with magnet for money. Doesn't work great if you carry lots of cash but works great for me.
Cell phone in left front pocket, keys in right front pocket and wallet in left rear pocket. Pretty balanced out. Seem like if I put anything in the right rear pocket, like a receipt, I always forget to look in that pocket and remember it after the load of laundry looks like a bad case of dandruff once I open the washer up.
Always take my billfold out my pocket when in a car. Can't stand to sit on it.

I'm using a clip for now until AmaGoogleBook implants the chip in my arm so cash, plastic and ID are no longer necessary.
Curious if you have had issues with the magnet and credit/debit cards. I had a hand carved wooden wallet that had a leather strap with a small magnet that attached to the front to hold the cards and cash in. The magnet ruined two debit cards before I stopped using it. Kept it for business cards.
I've had the same one for several years and never had a problem with credit cards. It will mess with hotel room keys though. There might be something between the card slot and the magnet.
Used one of these for years. Great wallet. Bottle opener comes in super handy.

This thread reminded of when I was working in a store during summer. When it came time for the customer to pay he pulled a 20 out of his sock. The bill was moist.
I've been using a Mitchell Leather money clip wallet for roughly 8 years.
There are wallets made of Tyvek. I've never used one but it may meet your needs for a wallet without much bulk.

Agree with what many others have said...I've cut my Costanza wallet down quite a bit in the last couple of years and it's nice any time you can declutter anything. I have a sleave/money clip type thing that I keep thinking to change to, but I'm not sure if I trust the money clip part.
I've had back/hip issues as well and if I'm driving the wallet goes in the door compartments.

I go to scheels and get the baseball compression shorts that hold a nut cup. Nice pouch to hold everything right there and hard for people to steal it. Also, with the more bills you add, the more......endowed you appear.

Front pocket for almost 2 decades. Helped dramatically with back pain I was having.

On my second Fossil cardholder/money clip. Won't go back to a traditional wallet.
I take my wallet out when I am driving. And I have trimmed down the amount of stuff I carry it it. Those have made a difference for me in terms of lower back pain - especially when i am driving long distances.I have a real life George Costanza type situation. My backs been hurting me for a while.

I've been a front pocket guy for a while. Had the huge Costanza wallet, had the back pain, and made the switch. I picked up some cheap Fossil wallet from Kohl's and haven't gotten a new one yet. I'm probably due for one.
Wouldn't go back to a traditional wallet. It's helped me minimize somewhat.
