Wow, give them props for quick shipping, though! Wrensmom, did you order them on the 18th when you posted? And you received them yesterday?!
That's too bad that they are that big. I was picturing them just larger than a credit card as well. I guess I'll see how they work for us in a couple of days...

Yes, they did ship very quickly. They came via the post office, in a padded envelope. It's not that I have any problem with the company at all, I just wasn't totally impressed with the product. Maybe I will give them some feedback, in case they want to make something more along the lines of what I am wanting:rolleyes: I did like the colors, and their 1% for the environment and not made in sweatshops is cool too.
The wallet I have now is a cheapy thing I picked up at someplace long forgotton (maybe Target? who knows). It says "Freestyle" on it, and it's black. It folds in half, and ends up being about the same size as the Jimi minus the top part that snaps open (on the Jimi). I have a DL plus 10 misc credit cards/insurance cards/library card stuffed in it. Since it is fabric, it kind of flexes and is decently comfortable in the back pocket of my jeans. Maybe I can post a pic of it later if I can find my camera, and if anyone wants to see it.

Ok, so I googled Freestyle, and I guess they are a real brand. Looks like they are sort of trying to be in the surfer market. Mine is sort of like this one:A Freestyle wallet
Maybe I will see what else I can find in the realm of "surfer wallets":D

Cheap substitute
I use something similar to the Jimi - it's alittle smaller, but it holds a credit card, some cash and coins. It's a clear plastic "travel" container for Q-Tips. It was about $1 at the drug store. I have to be frugal - we have 2 kids in college right now!

What about something like one of these? Eagle Creek makes good quality stuff. The slim coin pocket sounds like what you're looking for. And they have them at REI.

Thanks, Fuji Girl!:) Those do look pretty good. I don't know about the zipper on the coin purse thing--that might feel funny in a back pocket. But the "slim wallet" looks pretty interesting. I may have to go over to REI and see if they have one in stock.
