I wanted to love this wallet. To combat spinal problems I switched to front-pocket wallets a few years back, and was hoping the Saddleback would be the best of the lot I bought to test.

Sadly it was not. The leather is beautiful, and cut from hide that's nice and thick, but this is a problem. That thickness means it won't hold as much as it needs to without having to cram things in, possibly to a damaging degree for cards and receipt slips. Thus: too small. When it does have as much in it as it can hold (a few cards, a license, a few bills and a few receipts) it's too darn thick to carry easily. Thus: too big.

I have since kept looking for the perfect front-pocket wallet, without success. I wish the Saddleback had been the one, but my search goes on.
