I've been looking for a decent wallet for a long time. Wallets are one of those things that only seem cheap but you use them every day so you want them to be decent and reliable. This wallet is. Many budget wallets have the seams taped around the edge of the inside pocket of the card holder. Over time, these seams will unravel and the glue will end up on all your cards. This seam is sewn on this wallet to prevent this. For that reason, and how it's held up over the years, it's worth every penny. Don't buy a cheap wallet that you have to change every six months. Buy once.
