The best wallet for MEN too

The best wallet for MEN too! - Rigid requirements and possibilities. Perfect. Best found after a very long and exhaustive search!, Apr 5, 2014 By ClaxtonRevain Verified Purchase (what's this?) Non-leather unbranded art material wallets that I found and bought in a discount store basement 25 years ago , finally starting to fall That being said, it's time to buy a new wallet. I thought it would be an easy task but it was, but it wasn't! First, I have a lot of things in my wallet: credit cards, library cards, driver's licenses, membership cards, rebate cards, parking cards, and building admission tickets. , all the gift cards I received, some photos, some cash, change, some computer sticks, extra car and house keys, and receipts for the day's shopping. The previous two unbranded wallets were perfect, very thoughtful and subtle. They meet all the requirements (sorry for the pun) and everything else I had to wear; but in hindsight they were a bit clunky, but a very acceptable compromise nonetheless. I've been looking for a working replacement for many days and have scoured the internet for men's wallets. To my amazement and disappointment, there was absolutely nothing quite like the wallet I was looking to replace, and nothing like it in functional design or equivalent capacity. Very disappointing! Next, I decided to search the women's wallet market. In fact, there are many more offers in women's wallets, they are more varied and spacious than those found in the "men's wallets" section. Several women's wallets had the desired capacity and design, but were too thick and/or long to protrude from the pocket according to the specified dimensions. Then I came across this one from Big Skinny. VOILA! All requirements have been met, and that's a good thing! I just love this purse! It's almost perfect. I even ordered two extra ones to ensure durability. I don't want to waste my time and be disappointed in another exhaustive search if it stops in the future! By the way, all Big Skinny wallets are thin, but this is the only one of their men's and women's wallets that meets my stated needs and requirements for design, capacity, and size to hold everything I've outlined above. PRECAUTIONS: This wallet measures 7-1/2 inches x 3-1/2 inches. You won't be able to carry this wallet in your back pocket - obviously it will stick out. in the side pockets of most men's pants. I have no problems at all. If you wear tight pants, this handbag (or any other) may feel uncomfortable when sitting. And given the 3-1/2" width and comparatively smooth and slightly slippery material, this wallet can slip out of your pocket with relative ease if you ever decide to do a cartwheel on the sidewalk. So if you're putting this wallet in Considering it, just make sure your pockets are deep enough and you stay upright!Some of the things I love about this wallet: 1) Fits everything I want as detailed above 2) Full sideways (no doubles - or tri-fold), doesn't need to be folded so it fits on anything without doubling the volume 3) Bills don't stack (how horrible that is, especially in tri-fold wallets!) 4) Cards and other contents can't get out of this one Wallet will fall if you don't want it, so give it a try!5) Two full-size compartments that can hold bills, receipts, or other items that take up the width of the wallet litzes, and which can be further subdivided, as I have done with the inserts for the spare keys and computer sticks mentioned above. 6) Man-made material, not leather. It also appears to be well made, very durable and should last a long time. 7) Zipper pocket for small change. So folks, get over it! Just buy this very practical women's wallet! I bought four including 2 as spares and one for my daughter. At that time it was also available in black, brown and blue. I believe everything currently offered (7/2014), at least on Revain, is purple. There's also a black one, but it's leather and not the nice, thin, durable plastic like the others. I'm not sure if and when other colors will be available. However, this wallet is so good and comfortable that I would use it in any color.

Pros
  • Wallets, card cases and money organizers
