Wallet?

I bought the Spibelt around 2012 for my walks and hikes. Then, early in the pandemic, before we understood how the virus was spread I wanted to stop using a purse, in case it could get germy, and I started using the Spibelt for that too. It's always hidden under my shirt. I loved traveling light so much that I still only use my Spibelt. It holds several cards and a lip moisturizer regularly, often holds my keys, and occasionally I even put my phone in there, but I prefer to put my phone in my pocket for faster access. If anyone is interested, this belt also comes in a double pocket and other variations.
 
I am of no use to you, with you wanting to downsize but this is a fun thread like you say to see what everyone uses!

I lug around a large wallet, but i love it, and always have had one this exact size, vary the colour/design, but a complete zip around, space for at least six cards and I have much more in mine with loyalty cards etc., coin purse and space on both sides for notes. I have a large handbag (you call that a purse right?) and normally carry a backpack for the school runs so I do have plenty of room to have a large wallet and love them!

I have one similar to this but a different color and I attached a wrist strap to it

This is the one I might ask Santa to bring

I’ve used a small coin purse for years now. It’s a gift that Brighton sends you each year if you purchase one of their bags/purses. It’s large enough to hold credit cards, bills folded in half and cash. The only annoying thing is the cash falls to the bottom so getting it out can be a pain, and you can’t put too many cards and such into it otherwise it’ll get too full to manage. That said, I can easily put 10 cards/licenses and have plenty of room for cash.

I love using this because I can easily drop it into a pocket or another purse if I change it up. I also wear a lot of retro/vintage clothing and love to change handbags for each outfit. It’s small enough to put into most vintage handbags; if the handbag is tiny it’s easy enough to grab my license and cards from it to place into the pockets provided.
 
I use a black leather men’s wallet with card slots only. It doesn’t hold coins (i just throw them in a pocket or to my kids or in a tip jar) so it’s probably not what you’re looking for but I love how small it is (until I add way too many cards to it…).
 
I notoriously sit wallets (and purses) down...forgetting to pick them back up. Thus, I use a RFID blocking sleeve holder. If I don't have pockets (e.g. yoga pants) I tend to wear a belt like Michel's Spibelt. On occasion, I may place items into a Coach clutch that I wear around my wrist...so I don't sit it down and forget it somewhere.

I use a tiny wallet that is attached to my keychain- it is this one: https://www.mdbm.com/products/limoges. It has three zippered compartments, one I keep change in, one for folded cash and then the center area has two dividers in it that I use to sort my credit cards/id/insurance/costco card etc. It is super soft and lightweight, so I don't have to detach it from my keychain when I am driving. Here is a photo of mine: View attachment 521420
Please excuse the dog hair on my couch- I have a golden retriever and he leaves his fur EVERYWHERE.

I got weak and ordered one of these in the magenta color. I can't wait to try it out. :D
 
I use a Cath Kidston wallet made of oilcloth with leather trim. It’s similar to this one, except mine has a navy floral background with light brown leather trim. It’s not small! But I love it because it has room for everything (lots of slots for cards, a coin pocket, and so on)
