Review on ๐Ÿ’ผ Ultimate Chelsea Sleeve Wallet Protection: Vaultskin Men's Accessories - Unmatched Security and Style! by Raul Fabijan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I almost wanted to keep it until I decided I couldn't.

Had high hopes for this wallet. I've spent too much time searching YouTube, Revain, Google for the perfect minimalist wallet setup and hoping this would be the right one. It's close but not there. I've been using minimalist wallets for ten years and I usually carry five cards (ID, Insurance, Costco, CC, Debit) and usually 1-3 bills, maybe a random gift card here or there, but I try to keep it in a drawer at home and take with you if necessary. The single horizontal pocket is the best place for your most used card. This slot is easy to insert and remove a card. The middle pocket is obviously where you will keep most of your cards. Unfortunately, the vertical outside pocket is completely missing. Getting the card in and out is really tricky (although it would certainly be a little easier as leather naturally stretches over time. And more importantly, the pull tab you use to access the cards in the center pocket , interfering with your natural grip Position That sounds finicky, but you have to flip that tab up and out of the way with one hand, and then stick your fingers inside the card, you have to try and pry it out of the tight clasp because you decided Did that it's too annoying to be practical, so I put my least used card (insurance or ID) in there.The kiss of death for me (the reason I came back) was that the tongue lifts the cards though , but not. It's enough (in my opinion). This offers a wide deck of cards to pick up, a small pick-and-pull area, combined with a very tight fit (again, that would lo with only 3-5 cards in the middle) ma de Clearing these cards takes a lot more effort and intention than just picking up and leaving. That's a lot of storage space in a very efficient package, but only about 10% of your map popup was too annoying. This could easily be fixed in a future iteration, so hopefully they'll take that into account.

Pros
  • FUNCTIONAL AND SLIM - Chelsea's three pockets hold up to 10 cards: 1-2 in the front pocket, up to 5 in the RFID-protected inner pocket and up to 3 cards in the back pocket. Slim wallet ideal for business cards, credit and debit cards, driver's licenses etc.
Cons
  • Slightly torn
