Is it difficult to get a medium sized bifold wallet in and out of the neuf mini? Definitely not referring to a continental wallet.
I love the colours of the mini, but right now I feel like my regular neuf is just about the right size for the stuff I carry around ahh…
I’d love to buy the regular neuf, if only it wasn’t so bulky worn crossbody. I really only wear my bags crossbody so that’s important for me. Yes, a bifold wallet can fit in the mini, though! Below I show a very minimalist wallet that I use all the time now (green) and a bifold wallet I used to use (blue):

hello, may I ask what brand is your minimalist wallet?
 
I have that green one and one that is more gold or champagne. The other exterior View attachment 5412047View attachment 5412048side has 2 card slots, and there are two card slots inside a zippered section and that section can actually hold quite a few bills.

Aww, you are so sweet to have taken the time to show and write me all these details. Thank you so much! <3 This is sure very helpful and tempting. The color green is the exact green I love. <3

I’m going to add some pics of my Tonca in Camel to show what fits inside. On a normal day I carry my mini Pochette, a card case, and my sunglasses. There is a slip pocket in this bag & my card case fits easily.

For size comparisons, I am showing my Tonca with a LV Pochette Metis, Speedy 30, and Neverfull MM.
