I've heard that the big wallet is back. I'm superbly unqualified to speak to the stylistic aspects of it, but I can share what motivated me. Travelling overseas, I carry my passport with me everywhere I go. It less about safety and more about the ability to use my American Express card without a large debate. My passport was taking a beating, so I wanted a wallet that would hold a passport plus all the usual wallet affairs.
I came down on the Tumi Delta Passport Case. It's large, large enough to hold a passport obviously. I don't often carry my wallet in my pocket anyway. To that end, the size doesn't bother me at all. If you're planning on carrying it in a pants pocket daily, you will need big pockets. Otherwise, the leather is exceptionally supple without being easily scratched. There are a menagerie of pockets and compartments. Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase. I'm using it day-to-day now and not just away from home.
