everything looks very high quality and well made. Feels very soft but holds credit cards in place very well. The card slots in my old wallet became so loose that the cards could fall out. I wanted one that stores cards with a slot opening for the short side (height) of all cards, not the long side, and with horizontal slots for slots on top of each other when the wallet is open. I find this keeps more of the card in the pocket, allows for fewer openings, and overall reduces the chance of a card being accidentally released. So far everything has worked very well and I am very happy with this item.
