Clip on a belt loop walled/purse

I need a purse for DS. He’s 17 and loses his wallet/money, pretty much every time he shops. He has Aspergers. We’ve tried small change purses but he leaves them in counters whilst paying etc.

I can’t find anything (unless it’s a bum-bag Style) that will clip to trousers’ belt loop. He won’t wear a belt 😐

Not really stylish nor beautiful but...anyone?

You could get a bumbag and unthread the belt, and clip it on to his trouser belt loop with a carabiner?

My DS was similar and he used to have a wallet on a chain. A quick browse on eBay suggests you can still get them - if you're handy with pliers you could shorten the chain to avoid them looking so emo-tastic. Skateboarding/ alternative shops often sell them, too (you can also get the chains separately if he has an existing wallet with an eyelet hole in it)

For security when I'm travelling, I use a small coin purse that I've attached a long key chain to and clip the other end to my belt loop.(I bought the chain at a key cutting shop). It's long enough to take the purse out of your pocket without unclipping the chain.

I was looking for something for my DDad (he's 80) , he wears a small purse on his belt (loops at the back to thread through , zipped and press stud compartments) . I think he got his from the market , I've been to the stalls that sell bags/wallets but they've got nothing similar .

Look for wallet with chain on Amazon. There are quite a few to choose from. DH and DS both use one.

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I’ll have a look!
