Review on ๐Ÿ‘œ Piel Leather Chocolate Shoulder Wristlet: Women's Handbags and Wallets by Buffy Foley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Although smaller than expected, I am delighted with this wallet!

This deserves a 5 star rating for the quality and I would give it if it was true to size. It says 10 inches wide. It's not like this. width 7 feet. This was a disappointment as I could have used an *extra* room. The smaller size is probably because the design is so well thought out. One thing I was looking for was an outside pocket to put my 6.5 inch long LG V20 (Samsung Note sized). Bingo! Mission accomplished. Another thing I wanted was a zippered exterior with card slots and pockets like a traditional women's wallet. Good luck there too! It should also fit in my large Healthy Back bag for when I do a little more than running errands or walking around town. Perfect! In addition, it is the best quality in terms of construction and materials. I can say that it will serve me for decades. Featuring rotating clips, durable hardware and leather that ages well and stretches a little over time; With a design that actually fits full size bags when full, I look forward to many years of use. The only improvements I could wish for are: 1) it was the advertised size 2) the seam between the two zippered pockets was open at the top to allow little space to stash things like receipts as I go through the day ; 3) a small outer zippered coin pocket (I have a small wallet that fits in the main zippered pocket.) 4) an elastic loop in the map pocket for a pen (which I'll put in myself). Photos of me packing everything in my wallet. In the large zipped pocket I have a wallet, headphones, two lip glosses, eyeliner, some tissues and tissues, a small pack of painkillers, another small pack of mints, a hairbrush - everything fits! Although you can't see it in the photos (since I took the pictures with my phone) it fits in the outer open pocket (full of other pockets) without closing the latch. I would buy from Piel again at any time or recommend them to friends. Well done Peel!
