Review on Chums 18401103 Surfshort Wallet Women's Handbags & Wallets for Wallets by Christopher Sullivan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great wallet with a front pocket that also helps you keep up with your keys.

Standard back pocket wallets are bad for my back when I'm sitting and don't easily fit in my car/house keys. This wallet fits comfortably in the front pocket of my pants, can stay in place while sitting without discomfort, and also conveniently stores the keys to life. This has made it a lot easier for me to keep an eye on my wallet as I always want to take it out of my back pocket when I'm driving, sitting in the office or just coming home. Here's what Chum's wallet has for me when I'm in my pocket (and doesn't feel bulky - it's actually barely visible): - 2 credit cards - driver's license and insurance card - travel card - $5-$8 bills - 3 door keys for the entrance and a keyless remote control for the car. This wallet isn't advertised as being RFID protected, but my commuter card (MARTA for Atlanta trains and buses) doesn't register to connect to the ride unless I put it in my wallet's window pocket. (My leather wallet has never blocked card reading.) The mustard and blue color choice makes it easy to spot when it's "somewhere" in the house compared to a black wallet. Actually, the mustard yellow color isn't as brightly neon as I thought it would be from the web image. The color is very similar to "Gulden Mustard Brown" so the color description in the text is accurate. I attached my wallet to a 550 paracord cord that I attach to my belt loop so my wallet and keys are in my front pocket and never get tangled again. I wish I had this "system" of organization before I recently lost my wallet! I know it sounds exaggerated but this wallet has taken all my worries about losing my wallet and keys, it has given me peace of mind and it has also saved me a lot of time as I no longer have to 'search' my home or office. a cubicle for a wallet or keys without remembering where I put them. Getting this wallet was the best use of the eight and a half dollars I've spent each time. Now all I have to do is hold up my pants. Getting old is hell! (I would give 4.5 stars if I could. Half a point less for the color of the fabric being darker than the online photo.)

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Zero
