I’m shopping for a thin wallet for maybe up to 5 cards and some cash. Smaller is better. It should be appropriate for business environments. For decent men only (like me). ---

> **[zerOz: Less wallet - more cool.](https://www.zeroz.com/)** > > A slim wallet we call zerOz. So thin, it will fit in your front pocket. These guys have a shop in Columbus and make a great product. I use one myself. They have 3 different sizes and a bunch of different types of leather. The details are on the site. ---

My folding wallet holds 5 debit/credit cards, 2 forms of ID. Real skinny. Folding money lives on a money clip. Works great for me. ---

I have a bifold wallet and a mini wallet/card case from [Ragged Edge](http://www.etsy.com/shop/RAGGEDedgeGear) gear. They’re thin, lightweight, and resistant to all kinds of abuse. I’ve never found them unsuitable for business. ---
