Review on πŸ›‚ Polare Blocking Leather Passport Holder: Secure Your Travel Essentials in Style by Stephanie Anderson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Elegant, thin, practical, safe.

Just received my wallet with passport holder in anticipation of my international business trip as Covid is finally behind us. I chose 2 additions over 3 so it doesn't get too cumbersome. I went with the black option for a sleeker, more polished look. The purse is well made. The seam is good and even. All four corners have reinforced, thicker stitching, so I expect it to last a while. As you can see from the picture it conveniently holds my passport as well as my driver's license, two credit cards and then another compartment for a health insurance card, business card or whatever - plus a compartment for cards to keep cash or travel documents like Boarding pass etc. Passport fits in the designated pocket on the right hand side - either by simply tucking in the back just for quick and easy access as shown. Or you can put your entire passport in this pocket. In any case, the wallet closes normally. You can't tell there's RFID shielding, but it's good to know you have that extra layer of protection. The only visible material other than leather is a thin fabric used to line the pockets. Oh, and did I mention there's a nice slight real leather smell, which is a good indication of the quality of the material used in this wallet. I have a suggestion for Polare: It's a good product, so why don't you market it? A small stamp with your logo or brand name somewhere on the leather is handy. Of course, some people prefer it for what it is: subtle and discreet, with no indication of the quality manufacturer that made it.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Security
