Review on πŸ‘” FIDELO Minimalist Men's Wallet: Wallets, Accessories, Card Cases, and Money Organizers for Men by Ryan Gillett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Awkward wallet handling

Pros: - I like the "leather" feel of the case - I prefer pockets on both sides. Especially if you have cash. I feel like the straps and clips don't fully secure the bills. - Fits well in the front pocket with cell phone. Disadvantages: - working with the wallet with one hand with the left hand when removing cards is very inconvenient. The position of the pressure mechanism forces you to press with your thumb. This arrangement creates the feeling that the wallet is about to fall out of your hands. Now if you change the position of the pressure mechanism so that the other fingers can press, the cards will cascade in the wrong direction. Some finger strength is required to activate the print mechanism. It took me some effort to hold the wallet with my right hand and activate it with my pinky. The wallet is not spring loaded. The cards are not cascaded as shown in the picture (i.e. they are not evenly distributed). With 5 cards (2 with raised letters) I sometimes find a card hidden behind another card. I give this 3 stars because this wallet is way better than my previous wallet. I had very high hopes for this wallet but the fact that it looks like I'm using the Gripmaster hand exerciser when I take out my cards killed me. Yes, I want quick access to my maps, but I didn't think I would work on it.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Easily wrinkled
