    I’ve had the same leather wallet for like 14 years and the card fits so perfectly in the little card holder without any bending or tearing. I don’t recommend it for people who drink or ride motorcycles, but for my purposes it might as well outlive me.

      I also had the same wallet (also holding my social security card) for approximately fifteen years. It was a replica of a classic NES controller; I paid $15 for it at a GameStop probably seventeen years ago. I had it for so long and got so many comments and compliments about it that it became sentimental for me.

      I replaced it with a slim, RFID blocking wallet once the old one started to physically degrade (I was impressed it lasted so long), but it still resides on a wallet display stand on my mantle. I didn’t even know wallet display stands were a thing until I decided to preserve this one.
