Review on Large-Sized Slim Wallet for Women: Big Skinny Trixie Leather Tri-Fold Design, Accommodates 30 Cards by Katie Gibson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not as expected.: Ladies

I am looking to replace a wallet I bought over 10 years ago. From the description I thought it would fit, but it doesn't. This wallet is actually wider and longer than my old wallet, but it doesn't match everything I have in my old wallet. First, when I fill it with cards, ID cards, etc. from my old wallet, it's no longer big and skinny, it becomes big and thick. It has more compartments than my old wallet, but I have to stuff all the cards in and pull to get them out. Also, the wallets are small. The banknote compartments do not run the entire length of the wallet, but go through 2 folds of the triple wallet. This makes it quite cumbersome to quickly deposit and withdraw dollar bills at the most inconvenient times, such as when paying for something or getting change. The coin compartment can be opened and closed with a zipper, which I don't like that much either. When I put coins in, you can see the outlines of the coins on the back of the wallet. Finally, the wallet says "Upper Cowhide Leather" in fine print, but it looks and feels like vinyl leather. I don't particularly like it either. It looks like it will crack when it gets cold or when worn out. It doesn't look like it will get as soft and supple as real leather with age. I will definitely continue to use it while I continue looking for a new wallet.

Pros
  • Comfortable item
Cons
  • So far so good
