I still have a hard time remembering to put my wallet in my front pocket though. I actually went to the doctor a year ago because of back pain, and found that this was the cause.

I made the transition to a low-profile wallet. I tried the Jimi Wallet first, then the Junior All-ett. Pics and a write up about the wallets are here: My quest for the low-profile wallet http://www.lococerveza.com/wallet.htm I wrote it up a few months ago and I wouldn't go back to a traditional wallet. The All-ett has held up very well with no wear. I quit wearing a watch, too. I use a small cellphone, now. Hi. I made the transition to a low-profile wallet.

I wrote it up a few months ago and I wouldn’t go back to a traditional wallet. The All-ett has held up very well with no wear.

I quit wearing a watch, too. I use a small cellphone, now.

Being married, it holds no cash (I keep business cards where a single guy would keep cash) and the few cards (visa, ATM, license, starbucks card, and Universal Life Minister) are just right. On a related subject, I also don't use a watch because it keep getting in the way of my laptop keyboard... I dropped the big wallet for a money clip with credit card holder.

Maybe it comes from living for year in pre-Juliani New York, but carrying my wallet in my front pockets with my hands in them reduced the chances of being pick pocketed.

Regardless of whether I'm wearing slacks or jeans, I like to wear a jacket. When I don't wear a jacket, I take my wallet out of my back pocket before sitting down.

I know carry everything I need in my front pocket: IDs, credit cards, cash wrapped around it and then everything held together by one of my daughter's hair bands. Works like a charm. The bonus to this method is that I have no place to keep paper. It's amazing what crap you no longer need to carry when you have no place to carry it! hak For the same reasons, I ditched my wallet.

For years I kept my wallet in my back pocket. I'm a pack rat of sorts and hate to part with anything. Yes, even receipts from two years ago (it's an illness), which I only recently got rid of. Consequently, my brick of a wallet caused a sciatic problem and it was far from enjoyable. Chiropractor suggested removing it when driving or sitting for long periods, as you highlight here. Now I don't even keep it in my back pocket. The new home is the computer bag which, of course, is with me at all times. It’s true. For years I kept my wallet in my back pocket.
