I usually carry it in my back pocket, but I've carried it in the front pocket with my phone many times, and it's totally comfortable. Hope this is helpful :)

I've been carrying this [Alpine Swiss](http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-Swiss-Genuine-Leather-pocket/dp/B004M6UDF0/) for over a year and it's in perfect condition. If you want even thinner, they make [other](http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-Swiss-Genuine-Leather-Wallet/dp/B00EOYKEEA/) thinner [wallets](http://www.amazon.com/AlpineSwiss-Leather-Wallet-Super-Pocket/dp/B00AB0AX4C)

I personally use a Slider: http://implstore.com/collections/slide-l I've had one for over two years now. The first was canvas and my new one is leather. It feels great, holds up to everything, and isn't too expensive.

I have one of [these](http://shop.diesel.com/johnas-i/X02770PS777.html?dwvar_X02770PS777_color=T8013&dwvar_X02770PS777_size=UNI#start=1). It's slim and fits just enough for me.
I switched to slim, no fold, front pocket style wallets nearly a decade ago but found I was compromising a little too much when it came to carrying cash and cards. Two years ago I bought one of [these](http://bit.ly/1CLroq5) and have been extremely satisfied ever since. It is still slim and small enough (LxW) to carry comfortably in my front right pocket, even with other items like my EDC knife, pen, chewing gum etc. Sometimes I even keep my secondary phone in the same pocket.
The gusseted pocket is the main selling point for me and the reason I wont go back to no folds or traditional bi/tri-folds. It is there when you need it but doesn't take up much space when not in use.
This particular wallet is extremely soft but has held up really well and I especially like that it is all leather, there are no buttons or clasps that poke or stick out.
Few [pics](http://imgur.com/a/uqfNl) of my personal piece.
The gusseted pocket is versatile. Most of the time it has business cards I may pick up or loyalty cards I know I'll need. Friday nights it's been known to carry a condom!
Hope this helps! Gusseted pockets FTW!

Here's what I use. https://www.etsy.com/listing/198546648/ I carry in the front left pocket. I currently have 6 cards on one side, and 4 on the other with cash folded in thirds.
Where can I find decent vegan "leather" boots that aren't crazy expensive?

Target.com for me :) 25$ got me some really cute Doc Marten-esque combat boots.

This brand is kind of expensive but they have a 40% off coupon right now. Code BFCM16. 100% vegan brand. http://www.neuaurashoes.com/categories/Boots/?sort=priceasc
We have several styles at Drizzle & Shine (Will's, Novacas, NAE)

Something to consider. the cheaper your shoes are.. who made them? Are you supporting slave or child labor? Although you can find accidental vegan shoes everywhere, are they ethical? Check out the documentary https://www.facebook.com/880283732091633 The True Cost it will change the way you shop!
Christine F. replied:
Are you looking for work boots or fashion boots? I've done well with the latter from Nordstrom Rack. Just search on "vegan" on nordstromrack.com
Tish S. replied:
Madden Girl also makes lots of faux leather shoes. They sell them on Amazon and at Macys. I sometimes check Ebay for vegan brands such as Cri De CÅ“ur, Olsenhaus, Beyond Skin, Novacas, and Neuaura. H&M also has non leather boots.

Are you summiting? I've been climbing in these and love them, they are made of synthetic leather but not 100% sure of the glue.

Joann Fabrics has double-sided sticky fabric tape, and felt material. Adhere the felt to the underside of the nylon strap so it doesn't slide.
