Review on πŸ‘œ Sakroots Convertible Wristlet Pockets Women's Handbags & Wallets: Crossbody Bags by Tony Cohen

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Wanted to love this wallet.

I prefer small wallets - less junk inside. I've been using Sakroots for years and have had 2 smaller smartphone cases. Sakroots Smartphone Strap Black/White One World I LOVE YOU! Unfortunately, the last two phones I bought didn't fit in my old wallets. Found this at a local store and found my thin Samsung Galaxy Note 8 to fit perfectly in the phone's slot - just don't like the prints available. So I tried Revain - I found a print I really liked that was almost half the price of the regular store. win win right? Yes and no. While I prefer the smaller size of the bracelet, this wallet has plenty of room for cards, cash, some loose change, and of course a phone. I'm getting used to the layout, but I miss an ID holder, hidden pocket, and the ability to open the wallet wide like I did on my previous Sakroots. Some reviews say you can't put two cards in the same slot - you can put more than one card in a slot. I actually have a couple of slots that have two cards. It was a bit tricky at first, but as the fabric started to stretch with use, it became a lot easier. Now for the not-so-great ones. I had this wallet for a full three weeks and a day. Yesterday I noticed that the lining in the phone pocket is starting to tear along the seam. A week earlier I noticed that the wallet was really crooked. While I can figure it out, like a crooked wallet. The food bothers me a lot. The fabric seems to have barely reached the seam, and several weeks of actually using the phone case has pulled the fabric down like it should. I'll be contacting the seller after posting this - but here's the kicker. I bought it for the vacation I'm leaving in 2 days. I will post any updates as they become available. ***UPDATE*** After contacting the seller and sharing the photos, they more than understood my frustration. They ran out of stock of this item so they refunded my money and told me to keep the wallet. So while I'm still looking for another wallet - at least now I have something that works!
