Review on Stylish & Durable: LEATHER ARCHITECT Men's Leather Zip Black Sapphire - Experience Unparalleled Elegance by Steven Hanson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Huge wallet, definitely not thin, mediocre leather quality

A very big wallet. The folded size is 5x4 which is larger than my other wallets. Plus, it's packed with pockets and even has an external zippered coin pocket, so even when partially loaded, this wallet will really fill your bag. Strange for such a large wallet, it only has 1 compartment for currency. The main reason I need a large wallet is to store various (including large) currencies when traveling and 2 pockets help to keep various currencies in order. The product name says "100% leather", which is kind of a joke as there is no official definition of "100% leather". The small print says "genuine leather", meaning inferior leather. The best wallets are made of high quality or full-grain leather. This "real leather" is made by gluing the remaining layers together after removing the top grain and then polishing and dyeing to look like leather. The surface is soft and inviting, but durability is usually much worse than high-quality leather. It doesn't appear in the product description, but the label inside the wallet says 'Made in India'.

Pros
  • Good product for its price
Cons
  • There are problems
