I am a wallet collector and this one, despite being very simple, is so far one of ed favorite and I carry it in the front pocket.
I wanted a smaller wallet that I could keep somewhere else than my back pocket. I did a great amount of research considering many options and even many materials, but ended up taking a risk and ordering this "Greensleeve" wallet in Natural/Espresso colour.
When I recieved the order I was surprised to see a hand written note + I even got an other free green coloured wallet, that had faded in the sun (in the window showcase, I presume). I felt like I just had the best customer service ever when it comes to online stores.
After using the wallet for quite a few weeks now, I am certain that I do not need another type of wallet in my lifetime. The design is smart, and build quality is very good. The leather seems excellent (although I am not a pro on this matter), and it has already started to show some very nice looking patina. It can easily hold all my cards (5 at the moment) that I need in everyday life, and I'm quite sure it could hold up to ten cards + cash if you stuff it full. If I lose this one and the one freebie also goes missing or breaks down after years, I will most certainly want to order another piece from FormFunctionForm!
As I write this I have my main credit card and drivers license in the front pocket and cash (7 bills, half-folded) and 7 full thickness cards in the back. There are also a couple business cards in there but those are thinner. This thing will hold some half-folded cash and around 10 cards without issue. If you pack it tight (I'd say anything over 12 cards +10 bills) it'll become more work getting to the stuff you need in and out but that should be the exception. If you can contain your card fetish this thing is a great carry.
If I had to find a flaw it would be that cash gets worn a bit by having its edges exposed so if you wanted to keep a bill crisp this won't do it.
I have 2 FFF watch bands and now this wallet. Both packages came with a greeting written inside the box and the products are very high quality in look, feel, and performance. The whole experience makes me feel like I bought something much more expensive than the actual price but without feeling like I compromised anywhere.
Quite simply a masterpiece of minimalism, with deceptively large capacity compared to its pocket profile. Very easy to use, very flexible and beautifully made. FFFine design at its very best!
After giving up on my search for a slim wallet solution, a friend recommended I take a look at Form Function Form. The Greensleeve is exactly what I was searching for. Perfect Size. Simple, clean, and unique design. Sturdy.
Every product I've purchased has been excellent quality. This Greensleeve Wallet is perfect - just enough to hold cards while still carrying a little bit of cash and I hardly feel it in my pocket. On top of the products, FFF has gone above and beyond making sure I have been satisfied. They have more than earned my time and money.
Little too loose in b card slot.. could use more stitching
Hey mate...if you have an issue with the cards not staying in, let me know...but I suspect once you start using it you'll see that the cards stay in very well. We've been selling this super-minimal two-stitch greensleeve wallet since 2013, so almost 10 years now, and I can count on one hand the number of issues we've actually had with them (almost always because we accidentally tied a granny knot instead of a square knot when finishing the stitch off). Adding stitches would sort of kill the vibe of the super minimalism of the wallet...and, again, I suspect that you'll find that it works really well even if it LOOKS like it is too simple to work well.
Apologies for the late response to this review; I didn't get a notification that there had been a review so just seeing it now.
I love the wallet but the monogram I ordered is huge (.5”x1.5” ) and cheapen the look.
Hey mate; our standard monogram on a small product like this is 10-12mm tall. I'm happy to make you a different one in a smaller size, and i know that I need to specify what our standard monogram sizes are on products and offer people a way to request smaller or larger (adding that to my list of to-dos). I've sent you an email over, go ahead and respond to that and i'll get you a replacement to your preferred size.
Love it
Enjoying my new wallet! High quality leather and very well made. Looking forward to many years of service from it.
I love how unique, simple, and effective, the design of this wallet is. It manages to hold plenty of cards and cash while staying compact. And of of course, the materials and build quality are as excellent as the design. Woudn't change a thing, I love it!
Got this to maintain my desire for a slim profile while keeping the ability to carry cash neatly and discretely (no money clips). So I got this and it is great, the color is aging well and is incredibly well built and sturdy. Customer service/interaction is great as well. Had an impromptu conversation with 'him' on Twitter last night as well as other interactions in the past. Excellent person/people, excellent products. Buy this or anything else from them.
This wallet was a gift, and I couldn't have asked for a better one. It has a very simple and solid construction with very nice leather. Holds everything I need and looks great and stays thin while doing it. I'm sure this wallet will last me a long time. Great customer service.

I've had this for a couple of weeks now, and the quality is fantastic (which is no surprise if you've had anything from FFF before). The wallet easily holds cash and a couple of cards in the big slot and then a few things like ID and the like in the small slot. If you carry a wallet with a ton (like I used to) it'll take some discipline to pare down what you carry, but that's just a matter of doing some re-adjusting.
Looks great and works great. perfect fit for your cards and money. Really pleased with my purchase
Very unique and nice design. The only issue is if you want only carry just 2-3 cards with no cash, the cards will be loose. Shipment was so fast and communication was excellent. Probably buy again from them.
It's my first time to be using a minimalist wallet. I have found this particular wallet to be high quality leather and to have a very small footprint in my pocket. It is so well designed. Thanks for bringing out a high quality product.
I bought this as a replacement for my Johnston & Murphy card case. What I like most is its simplicity. The leather and craftsmanship is of high quality and I feel like I'll get many years of use out of this. Its already beginning to pick up some nice characteristics/patina from daily use.
I picked up my new wallet and watches last week and love the look and quality of them. The many color options and removable bands on the watches made for a perfect gift. Working with Shawn at FFF was great and I look forward to purchasing from them again.
Bought this for my husband's birthday, he absolutely loves it. Still tells me all the time how much he loves it. The style is awesome, mature but not old man-ish!!! Holding up great so far. :) we will be ordering from here again!
I received my order earlier than expected and was amazed my the quality. The leather is super soft with thoughtful sitching. I can't wait to give my boyfriend his Christmas gift :)
Thanks for the quick postage and delivery. The wallet is really swish and I'm really impressed with the design and quality. The personal note in the box was a nice touch.
Wallet is mint as... Sophisticated young ladies, here I come!
Good products, quick delivery and awesome communication after the purchase. Will be buying from fff again in the future. I've already told many friends about the site! My watch gets regular comments because of the uniqueness. My Greensleeve wallet is on point as well.
Very pleased.

Amazing product, company and customer service. I'll absolutely be working with them again and would recommend them without a second thought. Product is flawless, and delivered earlier than promised.
My DL, Passport Card, CCs, business cards and cash fit well into the wallet. Nice work.
Coming from a pretty thin, 10+ year old, tri-fold wallet I was a bit unsure about the minimalist (shove everything in one pocket) approach. That said though, after only a few days with the wallet I think I’m well and truly converted. Obviously the leather looks (I chose color 8), feels and smells incredible, but more than that, the practicality and simplicity of the wallet make it a common sense gem!
In my old wallet I only every carried 5 cards and a few notes (GBP notes fit in fine folded once) so I didn’t come to this wallet looking to slim down any more. Instead I wanted something simple, good looking and sturdy to last another 10+ years… so far I think I’m onto a winner.
My one and only niggle with the wallet is that, seeing as I carried so little in the first place, when I first loaded up the wallet the main section was a little loose and my cards didn’t feel particularly safe. I’ve since put in a couple of business cards and have been sat on the thing for a few days and I’m happy to say my worries have now been satisfied.
Sure, it’s not the cheapest wallet around, but I think you get what you pay for and in that respect I think the Greensleeve is an absolute steal!
This is a cracking little wallet. Shaun and the guys at Form.Function.Form continue to impress.
I've been on the lookout for "the" wallet for years. My main goal has always been to be able to get other stuff in the same pocket without it feeling cramped. Not to name names, but I had a "thin" wallet before...needless to say, the Greensleeve full was thinner than my old empty wallet! I was concerned about the functionality, but I've found that the separate slot makes it easy to access my two main cards. It might take a little longer to get cash out this way, but it's not a big deal at all. I also have a button-stud watch and, so I knew what to expect from the leather-awesomeness! As great as Horween leather is, what they do with it at fff makes it truly outstanding.
I have been looking for a wallet for quite some time that was not too bulky but not too thin. I am generally a man of simple taste so this wallet was perfect for me. I'm really very happy with it and the color is gorgeous. Its very functional but the quality is great and I've gotten nice compliments on the color alone !
