Review on ๐Ÿงณ Vaultskin MANHATTAN Wallet: Ultimate Protection for Men's Accessories and Wallets, Card Cases & Money Organizers by Maurice Branch

Revainrating 5 out of 5

this is a fantastic purse. The quality of the leather is above average and has.

Description 4 Star5 Star Wallet First, this wallet doesn't fit 8 credit cards in the slots provided. If the cards are not embossed, you CAN squeeze 6 cards with difficulty. The skin must be forced to stretch. The fit is so snug that my credit card numbers are etched into the leather. You can see it in my photos but the angle has been adjusted for obvious privacy reasons. Please note that each slot only has 1 embossed card and 1 non-embossed card. With 2 relief cards, the fit becomes even tighter. You can also see my stretch leather front pocket with only 1 standard unembossed card and a business card. I encourage Vaultskin to update their description to a 5 card capacity as this is a more realistic amount that will fit without damaging the product. That's my reason for deducting 1 star. This is a fantastic wallet. The quality of the leather is above average and the design is outstanding. I appreciate a logo that looks clean and not aggressive. If you're deciding between a money clip and a pocket, you need a pocket. Clips are easy to lose, break, are awkward when trying to sort through multiple bills, and don't protect cash very well. This wallet is high quality and just as thin. I would say it rivals some money clip wallets in terms of thickness. and seam fraying Open cash can be easily pulled out without opening the pocket, extending the life of the wallet Horizontal Sleeves โ€“ Cards must be inserted and removed horizontally rather than slipping into the pocket as is common with most wallets. In theory, this is a good choice to extend the life of the wallet and make it thinner. The fewer openings, the less chance of excessive wear. However, the cards are a bit difficult to remove from the bottom compartments. The wallet has to be put in an awkward position just to remove a card from the bottom compartment, and if you have big fingers it becomes a chore. I only use regularly 2 cards and one in the outermost pocket so it suits my needs. If you regularly use more than 3 cards, this can be annoying. RFID Protection - Protection is provided by a film placed between the skin that folds on the outside of the wallet. If your wallet is open or scanned from the side, your cards will still be recognized. The RFID protective sleeve, even though it is paper thin around the embossed card, does not fit in the wallet. As such, this wallet is more secure than most and performs well overall, but it's definitely not the most secure RFID solution. It will still do a decent job for the most part. Overall this is a good wallet and I highly recommend it.
