The wallet I use now is a slim bifold with a cool design on it, enough to merit exclamations, which is nice.  However, it is getting old and showing.  I mean, for the past three years the only separation between this hunk of leather and my butt is a piece of fabric of varying thickness.  So the search for a new wallet is on.  The search has led me to Freitag, a Zurich based accessory line that’s been turning used seatbelts, truck tarps, and bicycle tubes into eye catching wallets, messenger bags, and travel accessories since ‘93.  Simple products in bold colors with a nice eco philosophy.  I’m currently scoping out the E.T. wallet but, I must confess, I’m kind of (read: very) in lust with the Renegade Bag.  Two bags in one, one zips off the top to give you a day bag and tote.  A potentially perfect carry on.  *sigh*, I need to go to Switzerland.
