 a clam shell shape with a top shell coupled to a bottom shell by a shell hinge;   wherein the wallet comprises a sealed side located at the shell hinge, and a clamped top side, right side, and bottom side;   wherein said top shell and said bottom shell comprises a moldable material.   
     
     
         2 . The wallet of  claim 1  wherein the top shell comprises edges, wherein the bottom shell comprises edges, and wherein the edges are polished. 
     
     
         3 . The wallet of  claim 1  wherein said moldable material comprises a thermoplastic material. 
     
     
         4 . The wallet of  claim 1  wherein said top shell comprises a window. 
     
     
         5 . The wallet of  claim 1  wherein said top shell, said bottom shell, and said shell hinge comprise one integral piece. 
     
     
         6 . The wallet of  claim 1  further comprising a money clip, wherein said money clip is coupled to said bottom shell.
