Andrew
  On the assumption that said pocket is in fact a hip or "back" pocket,
you might want to consider the following.

I once shared a house with a Chiropractor and his wife. At the time I
too carried my wallet in my hip pocket.  He suggested I do otherwise.
His rational being that doing so was harmful and would lead to back
problems because every time you sat down (at a desk job/driving job/ to
watch TV, eat, etc etc. you are putting a wedge under your pelvis and
forcing your spine into an unnatural "S" curve. He said: "I tell all my
male patients who do this they can take their wallets out once a month
to pass me a payment or they can take their wallet out permanently and
forego their monthly deposits in my bank account. "

Good advice if not good business practice.
Cheers
