I wore a chain Wallet in high school and in my early twenties. Wife bought me a chainless "Colts" wallet b/c she hated the chain. Thinking about getting a new one just to rile her up!

Plus, remember the words of Jeff Foxworthy: If your dog and your wallet are on a chain, you just might be a redneck.
Well call me a redneck then why don't you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chain wallet = peace of mind. IMHO.

+1. Also I have a friend who lost his son years ago in a motorcycle accident and because his wallet was lost in the wreck (non-chained wallet) my friend was not notified for some time because they did not know the identity of the person killed. my friends sons body sat in the morgue for almost three days before any family was notified. I would not wish that on anyone.
