Review on πŸ’Ό Streamlined Style: Rigid Wallet - Minimalist Slim Aluminum by Mark Allen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing fit, feel and finish! Really masculine design.

Liked: Well packaged in a nice gift box and foam. A handy tool for reconfiguring the wallet to the format I need. I love the feeling, heavy, solid device! I am very happy with the color, I chose a solid gray. Goes well with black accents if you're on trend. Feel is also a plus. Heavy metal is a male feeling for me. It came with extra screws. Bonus. What I didn't like: Mine was returnable. It had a scratch on the front of an outer panel and whoever returned it kept the money band and left me two extra spare bands. It didn't come with instructions either, but when I need them to assemble, they should take a person off my card, so that part didn't bother me, I managed it. However, the lack of this extra strap affects the lifespan of the wallet. I had to cut off one of the extra straps to make a single strap for the money strap. Not perfect because I couldn't completely remove the stitching from the side band and this required extra spacing between the metal sides. This creates a dent and I am sure that this will be the reason for its failure. A potential downside is the amount of bills it can carry. If you have more than ten bills, it's difficult to keep them all under the money clip. I have successfully placed ten bills under the clip (ten new crispy bills and five very worn bills), no longer recommend. I use the money band for another 7 very used bills under the money band as well as a government issued ID. It will last, but I hope that one day I'll pull out my wallet and see that the money fell out. Again, I had to wind up my money band so your results may vary, but mine doesn't feel as reliable. But for now it's amazing! Really masculine quality and design! Pleasant to the touch because it is real metal. The size is perfect for the front or back pocket! I would buy it again and have already gifted it to a friend!
