I used to used Jimi wallets, but they have a habit of splitting, and I came across these on EDC.com, and while it's not the [i]slimmest[/i] wallet you'll find, it's quite possibly the toughest!
Pelican make gun cases, and other really tough cases, and while not truly waterproof, it has a rubber gasket, and is as tough as anything else.
I keep five cards in mine, and some loyalty cards, stamps and folding cash, it's attached to me by a paracord lanyard with stainless fittings, and isn't going to get lost!

Not in your price bracket but I really like my Bellroy Slim Sleeve and it's lasting very well - bought in 2014, still perfect condition but with a patina of age.

Have a look at the Osprey Quicklock wallet - currently £12 in Cotswold. I've use one for a couple of years and it has been excellent although perhaps not big enough for 10 cards without bulking it out too much.
Not as cool as Drac's suggestion though 🙂

That iclip has a serious amount of cards stored in it...is this 'normal'? If so, I'm rather pleased that I'm not as I have far fewer cards in my wallet...

I'm looking for a really slim wallet that will take about 4 notes, 3 cards and have a clear slip for 2 photos that I keep with me. I can't find anything small enough that doesn't seem to cost more than the 4 notes and 1 of the cards to purchase! It also needs to be made from very durable material as it lives with me and tends to go through everything I do - leather is 'nice' but when it gets soaked, it doesn't tend to stay 'nice' for long...

Explain, please, your comment makes no sense.

I [i]think[/i] he means it looks a bit shit.
🙂
But then I'm a traditional wallet (or more accurately billfold) man. Deal with too much cash for one of these mini clips and they're second only to a woman's handbag for faff when it comes to paying promptly.

I am aware I have just extended dtf's obvious troll. 😳
Sorry.

Animal Tri-fold wallets are slim, hold 10 cards easily, last ages and are around £10. Surfer look optional.

My iclip has arrived it's very smart and nifty but convinced it's worth £28 though.

It isn't no faff for the cash, open it up the notes are there take out or maybe I don't carry a roll like Nick the Greek.

Accessing the cards is so very simple slide out the one you want takes seconds, it's also not compulsory to carry 12 cards if you're not normal. It's very compact which is what I was after way smaller than my bifold was and contains the same items.

I could just about get away with a normal wallet until I had to start wearing these ridiculous skinny jeans. Slim wallet needed...

maybe 6-10 cards and some notes

Do you always need all this stuff with you?

Get a slim card holder - mine does take 6 cards. Notes slide in next to (or in place of) a card.

Store/loyalty cards go in Stocard app on my phone.

Have a look on [url= http://www.slimwalletjunkie.com ]Slim Wallet Junkie[/url] I got one of the A-Slim wallets from there and it is perfect for my needs, but they have plenty to choose from.

I have a trove and really like it, but I only carry 3 cards. It can take much more but becomes a faff if you need to get different cards out all the time. I pretty much only ever use my debit card so it sits in the centre bit on its own. British cycling card in another slot and a credit card in the other.

I think he means it looks a bit shit.

Right, that's where he's made a major error; he's mistaken me for someone who gives a shit what he thinks.
Or anyone else, for that matter.
Anyone who sneers at someone because of the wallet they choose to carry [i]really[/i] does need to have a long conversation with themselves in the mirror.
I think the word I've been looking for is snob.

Just as long as sneering at people because of how they choose to listen to music is still ok!!
