Review on TRAVANDO Wallet SEATTLE Blocking Bifold Men's Accessories ~ Wallets, Card Cases & Money Organizers by Genene Locson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice but poor packaging and usability.

This wallet and its siblings look fantastic and are affordable. but that's all the good news i have. * Bad packaging. As you can see in the attached image, the promotional card that is in the ID window pocket tends to stick to the plastic window and leave ink when you try to remove it. I was able to get rid of most of it with an alcohol substitute, but some of it didn't go away. * Color options. I particularly like the gray RIO and I would really like this one in the same color.* Money clip. While the money clip looks great, it's a solid piece of metal with no hinge or spring; So getting money can be quite frustrating. * WindowID. The ID window is not a full sized pocket so your ID will stick out at the opposite end and most of the information on your ID will be hidden by the leather at the end. Plus, it doesn't have a cutout in the plastic for easy ID card removal.* Ease of use. Because of the way the money clip is set up, it's not a very thin wallet once you start adding cards. The clip always takes up the same amount of space, then when you stack the cards the wallet just grows fast. So if you add too many cards on one side or the other; it bulges and prevents the wallet from closing smoothly.* Suggestions. Redesign the money clip to take up less space and be easier to use. Redesign the ID window to be a full size window with a cut out or drawstring for easy removal. Finally, explore different ideas to make drawing cards easier when they're stuck deep in your pockets.

Pros
