I hate keeping loose change in my pockets (what if you need to do a handstand or something?), but really want a slimline billfold wallet. I can't bring myself to have a separate coin purse like my dad either though.
It's a proper dilemma.

I got bought a Paul Smith wallet by my brother for being his best man and it was really nice, but.....it was a weird size. When opened out, a £10 note would JUST fit into it unfolded but required some fiddling to squeeze it in and a £20 was way too big for it.
I've got a nice Ted Baker one now - about £30 from John Lewis; plain black with a pressed 'ted baker' logo on the front and a nice patterny lining in the money bit.

Another happy Jimi user here. The best thing about it is that it has cut down the amount of crap I carry around in my wallet.Same here - used to carry all kinds of nonsense around until I got one.

Jimi wallet here as well. Used to carry all sorts of crap around in a really nice Oakley wallet, but all the loose change busted the zip. Now my Jimi has an Oyster Card, my photo drivers licence, three bank cards, folded paper money, a couple of cafe loyalty tickets and sometimes a carpark ticket. Loose change goes into a couple of old cloth sunglasses bags, the outer one's full of holes now...
Actually on my second Jimi, the hinge finally broke after several years use, now got a bright orange one. Love it.Posted 1 year ago # -
Lifetime warranty. I was offered over £100 for mine; refused as I had no-where to put all the contents!!

I'm baffled at how so many people want to carry change in a wallet. Have you no pockets?! I can't even begin imagine how much of a faff it must be to have to start digging out a wallet and unzipping things every time you're taken short for a Mars bar or vending machine coffee. Plus, the sheer volume of change I accrue over the course of the day, there's no way I'd get it all in a wallet without it bulging ridiculously. It wouldn't work for me.
Anyway. Inspired by this thread, I've just been out and bought a new wallet as my old one is somewhat battered. Got pretty much exactly this, £13 in TK Maxx. Feels like really nice, good quality stuff.

I've had a couple of the leather allett (sp?) billfold wallets . clever design and really thin. they were marketed as the worlds thinnest wallet... Recommended by me!

My Jimi wallet was rubbish. The little clip bit at the top broke after a week so it wouldn't close properly. Rest of it lasted about a year though. Think I might just ahve been unlucky....

That gets carried in a Kangaroo scrotum, a present from Brother-in-law in Perth.

First and indeed last....
As mentioned months ago, Pickett is where it's at.

The trouble with the Aspinall ones is, having bought one, I'd have no money left to put in it...

used to have a really nice, small and simple M&S Italian wallet. I was really happy with it until some jakey nicked it after it fell out of my pocket on the bus. M*therf*cker.
Currently using a gaffer taped IKEA Oyster card thingy. Does the job I guess....

Aspinal stuff is a bit 'tourist posh'

There's only one way to be sure
You can get a titanium one ........ if you think your arse is worth it.
