Review on Vintage Leather Credit Card Wallet Holders by Paul Walton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I've been using the same wallet for over 10 years

This wallet is exactly what I was looking for, well, almost. Here are some of the things I like and reasons I buy this wallet: 1. Size. This wallet might look bigger than other "standard" size wallets, but if you have a lot of cards, it doesn't look as bulky as the others. The wallet fits in my jeans or dress pants in the side pocket (I don't use the back pockets).2. "Secure" design - cards are safe in this wallet. No, I'm not talking about those "anti-theft" devices. I care about the design itself. There are several pockets that "lock in" your cards thanks to their design. It would be very difficult to accidentally drop cards while opening this wallet. It also has two zippers. One for coins, the other for big bills. I usually put my wedding ring in a coin zip when I need to touch food with my hand during lunch.3. Persistence - I have already completed at least 8 of these. Genuine leather and will last at least a year. The inner fabric frays and rips, and if you're cheap like me you can easily fix it with super glue. The leather piece never falls apart, so no one can tell your wallet has been repaired multiple times. In fact, after a few months of use, the skin becomes smoother and stylishly shiny. I would also like to point out that this was not the case with Revain until recently. I've been buying the same wallet (same brand, same design, same size) through E-bay for over 10 years. E-Bay sellers do not stock this item in the US, so you will have to wait for the seller to ship it from South Korea. This purse is not for everyone. This is for people like me who like to carry a lot of cards and stuff in their wallet. So why only 4 stars and not 5? Good. I would have liked the color to be a little darker. I want a black and brown version, but this one is more of a dark brown with some dark red. It's just a very specific personal preference, but other than that it's the perfect wallet for me.

Pros
  • Wallets, cardholders and money organizers
Cons
  • Makes me nervous
