I shopped very carefully and I am very glad I chose this wallet. It's real leather, smells and feels great, and holds more credit cards than any other checkbook/credit card combo I've found. Credit cards fit snugly and securely, yet are easily accessible. It is not much different in size from a check book, and the skin is male. A few people here have mentioned issues with clasps, but a wallet isn't designed to be ripped apart like Velcro. If you support latches opening and closing your wallet, you shouldn't have any problems. This item arrived in a few days, although it is estimated to have arrived in 6 weeks. Nicely packaged and better than my usual old checkbook.
