Long Wallets A and B: choosing storage and allowing for thickness
At the till, it feels good to reach for exactly what you need. Choose a long wallet for your everyday way of paying as well as the character of its leather.
The first question when comparing A and B is whether you need a coin compartment. Look at A without one, or B for keeping things together, according to how you carry cards, notes and coins.
Keep coins together or separately?
A has no coin compartment and measures 18.5×10cm, weighing about 80g. B measures 19×10×4cm, weighs 0.2kg and includes a coin compartment, note section and card holders.
A's thickness is not listed in the product information. If slimness is decisive, ask with details of the cards and notes you normally carry.

Loaded thickness and your bag's opening
Remove unused cards and receipts from your current wallet and count only what you normally carry. Empty dimensions differ from loaded thickness, so allow extra space when comparing with a bag.
If using a separate coin case, add that to your load. Consider payment order when weighing the convenience of one wallet against two separate cases.
