Review on Stylish and Practical Crabby Wallet: Minimalist Pocket Polyester Women's Handbags & Wallets for Chic Convenience by Brian Whitmore

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The sequel is usually not as good as the original.

I have the original Crabby wallet which I really like. I've seen newer versions and cool color combos so I bought one for my girlfriend (she loved it) and later bought this one for myself. I don't like it that much. I think it's because I was spoiled with the original Crabby. Being a canvas, this doesn't have the stretchable functionality that I liked in version 1. I think my girlfriend liked them because she never had the original nylon wallet. The canvas is really important, not just the capacity but the lack of "rebound" and flexibility makes loading and unloading your cards or cash a little awkward. If this is your first Crabby, you won't notice the difference. If you had the original, you may be in for a bit of a disappointment. But I found it lacked stretch, which it made up for in great contrasting colors that I really love. Plus, the accent fabric on the inside is a cool touch.

Pros
  • Waiting for
Cons
  • The list is getting long.
