This wallet is more like a pouch than a wallet, and is smaller than I expected, though I'm sure the description listed size so that's probably my fault. The chain is short but plenty long enough to comfortably get in and out money and cards without feeling like the wallet is too far away. The chain and the gizmo that locks onto your belt feels a little cheap but unless your a diamond currier in a Detective novel I'm sure they're adequate to get your average pickpocket to skip you and move on to easier prey.
So, this wallet will probably do what you want it to do.
