Forget where you pack you gun, where do you pack your wallet?

[JOERM]

Small talk and a strange question I know, so what's new? When I was a kid I lost my wallet while riding a tote goat checking traps. It fell out of my "back" pocket. From that point on I always have kept it in my front pocket, never ever lost it.

While standing in the shopping line I see some guys have a "thick" wallet in their back pocket, seems like it would be a pain when sitting. It also seems like an easy pick pocket for the bad guys.

There's this engr at work that never has kept his wallet in his pocket, ever. He packs it or puts in his coat pocket. He puts it on his desk at work and never forgets it. Seems odd but it works for him.

If I carried a fanny pack I'd keep it in there.

I keep my wallet in my right back/hip pocket. It's not as full as it once was...a lot fewer credit cards, money, etc. The advantage of being "pleasingly plump" is that my pants pockets are so tight that I can't imagine anyone slipping my wallet out without me noticing. I almost have to unbutton my pants to get it out myself.

Darn cleaners keeps shrinking my jeans...

After a loooooong time, I just switched to a smaller wallet/money clip and it rides in my right front pocket.

I have no idea why.

Left rear...we were taught in the academy that wallet should always be carried opposite pocket of your gun hand.

Keeping it in the front pocket helps avoid pickpockets. When I'm in the saddle, it always goes in the left saddle bag.

After a failed pic pocket attempt for my wallet in my right rear pocket at a county fair in 1972 I put it in my left front pocket and its been there ever since.

Wallet is in the right rear pocket when on me. When not in my pocket it's either in the console of one of the trucks or vans, locked in the desk or locked in the ammo safe. My wallet contains $200 cash (Mad Money), DL, Handgun Permit, lunch discount cards, Kroger Card and a few business cards. Steal it, I don't care. $200 isn't going to make or break me.

Cash, one check, AMEX and MasterCard are carried in the left front pocket in my Grandfathers money clip. 36/37/442/642 or 60 in the right front pocket with a speed strip in the watch pocket. At times the revolver can be found in either a left side cross draw IWB, right side IWB over the kidney or in a *** holster.

When out hunting the wallet is in a zipped closed interior pocket of the bibs or cover-alls.

When I carry a wallet it's in my left rear pocket, I use a money clip which rides in the left front pocket.

Looks like am the odd-ball!!

I have used my shirt pocket for about 30 years. My wallet is a very thin leather device that has an outside pocket where I carry my drivers license and ccw. Inside are 3 slots for credit cards and one spot for retired ID card plus a couple of 20 dollar bills. The whole thing is about 3/8" and weights almost nothing.

No photos of the wife, kids, etc. Only what I absolutely have to have.

Same here... Italians don't cary money in their wallet...it just ain't cool opening your wallet for cash...gotta come out of a clip...also, if someone sticks you up, they want your cash...throw them the clip and you keep your wallet...my DL also doesn't have my adress on it if someone does get my wallet...

Because of back problems I have carried in the right front pocket. I have several Safari short sleeve shirts with a zippered front pocket on each side under a regular front pocket with a button. Wallets and phone are carried in these when worn. Years ago I figured out the wallet in my left rear pocket was causing problems and switched. Some time later I read an article about men carrying those thick wallets in rear pockets and the nerves they can press against. For once I was ahead of the curve.
