Genuine Leather Expandable Credit Card Outside Id Business Card Holder Wallet 070BK

Years ago I found a wallet Ike this at Brookstone. I used it for over a decade before it started falling apart. I looked for a replacement and they no longer carried it, and I could not find anything similar at any of the ten or so Local stores I tried. A friend sent me this link on Amazon, I was skeptical at the low price but decided to give it a try. While it’s not exactly the same design as the Brookstone, it has been working well the past few months. It looks small at first but you can easily fit dozens of cards in it (why do I have so many gas cards and grocery cards and coffee cards?). The Brookstone had a filler over the ID slot which made it hard to read without removing at (a feature, I guess, but why have a window if you can’t read through it?). This one does not. This one also adds an outside slot you can put a few most used cards in. And, this cost maybe 1/10th what the Brookstone one did, so I can replace it every year I have to an come out ahead ;) No place for change, but you can easily fold cash and keep it in the pocket.

As much as I'd like to use a minimalistic wallet, I always have more credit cards, gift cards, ID cards and cash that will fit in the limited slots of that kind of wallet. This wallet allows me to stack all the cards together, taking up a minimum amount of space, with just two small pockets to separate ID cards (insurance, drivers license, membership cards) from the multiple credit cards and cash. Only negative is that cash (US$) doesn't fit well if folded in half and put in edgewise. Too tall, flap doesn't close down. So dollars must be folded twice and inserted with edges toward the sides of the wallet. Wallet feels soft and well made, not more of a bulge in the front pocket than my Leatherman Juice.

Good product.

Quality is decent for the price. Clearly real leather, no weird smell, just leather. Ordered 3 to put small portable paint supplies in for open air painting. They do hold quite a bit but the cover doesn’t have any closure so is stays open if it’s expanded all the way. Will probably add some Velcro or just put a rubber band around it. One had what looks like tiny burn marks on the plastic ID slot. I’m not concerned since I’m not using it as a wallet and the aesthetics aren’t super important. But the stitches are all straight and they seem like they will hold up for years with the amount of use they will get. I’m not going to have them in my back pocket or banging around in a purse so that will help with their longevity.

Nicely cushioned

Finally found the perfect size wallet

The item is typical of most other card wallets. Nothing outstanding about it. What seems to be an increasing problem is timely deliveries. I don't know if it's the sellers or Amazon, but more and more the delivery dates quoted are not the dates I receive them. Simply put, if you can't meet the delivery dates don't quote them. No more excuses accepted jere.

Honestly, I am reluctant to share my views on this wallet, because I want to keep the secret to myself. I just bought my third of this particular style and it is far and away better than any Ridge or fancy 'trigger' wallet that never worked for me when I tried it (yes...I bought one before going back to my tried-and-true. It was a piece of fad junk!!) The design is flawless. It is leather. It is RFID protected. It is soft to the touch. And it has pockets everywhere; front, back, inside, outside and a ID window pocket as well. I travel a lot and I can organize my vital cards into the pockets with the rest, including business cards, go in the larger pocket in the center. And don't worry. I have never had my cards all spill out onto the ground. If fits comfortably in my front pocket or in my sports coat, and I can increase or decrease the number of cards I carry at any time rather than trying to decide which 9 cards are my most critical. So skip the hype and the high dollar price tag of the other fad wallets. Get this instead.

Good quailty! Just what I was looking for.

Nice looking and good quality.

Just what my husband has been searching for. Holds lots of credit cards and business card. Good quality and worth the $.

Hope it lasts the same length of time my other one did which was more than 10 yrs great product

Wallets are exactly what I was looking for. Very pleased …
