The slimmy is the perfect compliment for any elitist mac user - small, stylish, relatively expensive, and not quite compatible with every wallet application (no coins here!)

It all fits quite nicely - this slimmy has been in use for about a month. It shapes slightly over time. Tue 1st November 2005 12:31PM
How it came packaged, inside a static free bag with a single "instruction" sheet. The whole thing came in a small bubble bag. Tue 1st November 2005 12:28PM

All the stuff I carry with me - 8 cards and 3 folded notes Tue 1st November 2005 12:32PM
Good stitching, and good leather. Smells like leather too. Tue 1st November 2005 12:37PM
The New Zealand $20 note is just slightly too big for the slimmy. Something to be aware of if your country has big money! Tue 1st November 2005 12:38PM
The slimmy with the iPod nano - small is good. (Unfortunately the nano doesn't actually fit inside the slimmy - sticks out a bit at the end) Tue 1st November 2005 12:40PM
I wasn't sure the slimmy was going to fit everything I wanted, but it does. It's great to help you keep minimal, and I find I only carry what I actually use now.
The only downfall of the slimmy is the lack of space for coins. Luckily the only time I use coins is for parking meters, so I leave them in the car. For those that use EFTPOS or credit cards day to day, the slimmy is perfect.
In case you're wondering, I haven't had anything fall out of the slimmy in the month I've been using it. When loaded up the slimmy is quite tight, everything stays in place fine, even when held upside down and shaken by the corner.
Koyono do make an even smaller slimmy called "slim slimmy" where notes are folded into 3. I think I needed the taller one, even just for our larger New Zealand notes, and because it's bigger I guess it stretches more when you do need all those cards.
