Update to the Update: This wallet is back to being amazing! Once the leather is broken it, it is much easier to use as a wallet! It's much softer, flexible and works great! The stiffness it originally showed is a highlight to the quality of the product. Now that it's broken in, it's even slimmer in my pocket. I love this wallet! Update: I'm leaving the original review here, but I wanted to update my review. The wallet is beautiful and slim, but it's simply just a PITA to carry cash in. Because it is so slim it is hard to fit any more than a couple bills into it -- which seems like a necessary component for a wallet. With that said, if you only plan on carrying credit cards (more or less), then I'd recommend the even slimmer wallet by Belroy, the Slim Sleeve. The slim wallet is a great idea, but not being able to easily add or remove cash is a real downside to this wallet. So forget all pretense about carrying much cash and just directly to the slimmest size available. Im hoping with time and some usage that this wallet becomes a little more user friendly. Just got the wallet today and I'm in love with it. It's a beautiful wallet, feels sturdy and absolutely has cut the bulk out of my wallet by about 40%. Some people are complaining about the hidden part being too hard to open, but I think that is a nice feature so that I think before spending my larger bills. The hidden coin purse could hold an additional credit card if you'd like -- mine holds the card I need to swipe into my building. I don't think I'll ever be able to go to any other wallet! Read more
Well-designed and executed slim wallet for men. Worth the cost. Read more
This wallet is exceptional. As a plumber, who plays the credit card points game, I truly test this thing to the max with at least two cards per slot and getting this wallet wet often. It has held up great the last 3 years. The card slots have loosened quite a bit, oddly enough the cards will slide out just a hair, but never fully falling out. I think for the money it’s a great purchase. Perfect for front or back pocket use. I’m planning on upgrading to the premium design this Christmas. I wouldn’t waste my money on designer brands when this type of wallet is available for $100. Read more
First off the look of the wallet is great. I purchased the black/charcoal and blue inside. Feels great to the touch and you can tell its made from genuine leather and not of the knock off variety. Love the back pouch that hides other bills and some cards that you don't use often or don't want to show off to anyone nosy near you when making a purchase. Only gripe I can come up with is that the pockets that hold the cards seem to stretch out too fast. I have had a few occasions where cards have fallen out while opening the wallet quickly. It isn't to the point where its a issue where I could lose something important otherwise my review would be quite different. Obviously I know leather naturally stretches over time and also depends on the overall handling/use but for the 6 months that I have used it, I dont believe the card slots should be as loose as they are. Price tag is high but how often do you purchase a wallet? Only reason I did cuz the one I had from highschool got wet and actually shattered when I dried it out. Personally I am a one and done kind of consumer and would rather spend the money on an item once. From its overall craftsmenship, I have no doubt that this wallet will last for the long haul. Literally those are thee only critical issues I had with the wallet though. Stitching, color, material both inside and out....Everything else is top notch. Overall I would recommend. May need TLC treatment at some point to keep the leather supple and tight but I don't expect I will ever need to buy another wallet again. Read more
I bought this wallet for an international trip for front-pocket wearing in Paris (which is one of many cities with a reputation for pick-pocketing). I fell in love with it on that trip, that I now use it for my every day use. It is on the pricey side, but card capacity, looks, RFDI shielding, are more than worth the cost in my opinion. Read more
I tend to keep the same wallet for many years, so when it finally came time to buy a replacement, I reasoned that it was worth it to spend a little more to get something really handsome and well-made, which is exactly what this wallet is. The layout is simple and functional, with no extraneous features; exactly what I want from a wallet. The leather looks and feels high-quality, and the two-tone design adds just the right amount of visual interest. I'm looking forward to carrying this wallet for years to come. Read more
Beautiful wallet out of the box. Works well, and he likes how everything fits in it. However, after less than 2 months, the leather is really wearing. I'm going to try to oil it and see if it helps, but he has had cheaper leather wallets from Ross that have their leather hold up better. I was between 3 and 4 stars because of this, and he does really like how organized it is, but I'm disappointed with the quality of the leather over what little time he has had it. Read more
