Vaultskin MANHATTAN Slim Leather Bifold RFID Wallet for Men

(Paragraph 2 is where the review really starts) I was looking for a minimalist wallet and this is perfect for me! At first, I was hesitant because I wanted at least one more pocket (considering that people in the reviews say it's difficult to hold more than one card in each slot; read what I have to say about that later, though) but I decided that if I wanted to go minimalist, I needed to cut back more and so I just bought it. It took me some time to figure out how to cut back but once I did, my pockets were so much slimmer and cleaner! There are literally no cons to this product, hence the 5 stars! But I have detailed each thing that makes this product worth the review. - Many people say that you can't really hold more than one card in each slot, but this is only partially true. After about a month of using the wallet, the pockets loosened up just a tad; nothing to worry about. This allowed me to store two cards (driver's license, which is relatively thin, and a student ID card) in the front pocket. I only have one card in each of the rest of the slots, but if you desperately wanted to put two in EVERY slot, then it's possible but it would not be comfortable and it would just defeat the purpose of having a minimalist wallet. - The quality is top notch (worth the price). It's top grain leather which is the highest quality type of leather. It's certainly durable and reliable. - The design is simple but incredible elegant! This wallet changed the way I carry things with me, and it has forced me to slim down but the rewards are worth it! You may want to read some articles on how to slim down your wallet if this is something you struggle with. There are many apps out there that you can store your information on securely and privately. Overall, this is a fantastic product and the results of going minimalist are well worth it!

Nice minimal wallet without sacrificing the necessary basics. Compared this with 4 other slim/minimal wallets from Amazon, and this seemed to not only be the slimmest in terms of thickness, but also height / width. I like that the cards are stored in horizontal slots so they won't fly out (which also helps make the wallet thinner than wallets with traditional vertical card storage), and the external pocket is great for keeping a frequently used ID or credit card handy. The leather feels decent and also smells good, and overall the wallet seems well-made and durable. The slightly rounded corners finish it off with a modern look that also hopefully helps reduce wear over time. Really happy with this wallet as long as it holds up - it seems much more sturdy than my previous wallet I'm replacing that was from a department store. UPDATE: Wallet is still awesome. Buy this wallet. I've had it for almost a year, and still looks like new. Wish I could add a 6th star. I've got multiple cards in a couple of pockets, and it has handled them well without stretching out too much or causing damage. Had held up really well and leather is still very nice with regular use every day.

The overall design of this wallet is exactly what I have always wanted. The previous wallet I used was a standard wallet. It had a center tab for your license, many card slots, and of course a spot for cash. The thing I greatly disliked about my previous wallet was the design for the card slots. Overtime the tops of my cards would bend, which I could not stand. However, the design of this wallet solves that issue. All of the cards sit flush with no bending and the cash pocket offers easier access to grab cash out compared to previous wallets I have had. I love the quick access front pocket for your cards. I also absolutely love the high quality Italian leather and the how thin the wallet is. Most of the time It feels like I have no wallet in my pocket when I sit down, or I have a very sublet sensation that the wallet is there. I couldn't be any happier. I highly suggest this wallet. Update: Nearly 5 years after my purchase, this wallet is still in great condition outside of the typical wear and tear. However, all of the seams, stitching, and quality are uncompromised -- very, very well designed high quality product here that I can attest to.

4 star description 5 star wallet Firstly, this wallet cannot hold 8 credit cards in the provided slots. If you have embossed cards (most common in the US), it will barely fit 4 on the inside. If the cards aren't embossed, you MAY be able to uncomfortably squeeze 6 cards. The leather will need to be forced to stretch. The fit is so tight as it is that my credit card numbers imprint into the leather. You can see this in my photos, but the angle was adjusted for obvious privacy concerns. Bear in mind that each slot has only 1 embossed card and 1 non-embossed card. With 2 embossed cards the fit will be even tighter. You can also see my front pocket's leather stretching with just 1 standard non-embossed card and a business card. I encourage Vaultskin to update their description to a 5-card capacity as this is a more realistic number to fit without damaging the product. This is my reasoning for taking away 1 star. That out of the way, this is a fantastic wallet. The leather quality is above-average and has a great design. I appreciate the logo which looks sharp and isn't invasive. If you are deciding between a money clip and a pocket, you will want to get the pocket. The clips are easy to lose, break, are awkward when you are trying to sort through multiple bills, and don't secure cash all too well. This wallet is higher quality and just as thin. I would argue it can compete with some money clip wallets in thickness. Design: Cash exposure - Giving bills exposure about 1/4" initially bothered me. However, one of the ways pocket wallets wear out quickly over time is by opening the cash pocket and wearing out the stitching. With the cash exposed, it can be slid out easily without opening the pocket, prolonging the lifespan of the wallet. Horizontal Sleeves - Cards need to be slid in and out horizontally instead of sliding down into a pocket as common with most wallets. This is a good choice, in theory, to prolong the life of the wallet and contribute to a thinner profile. With less opening, there is less of an opportunity for excess wear to occur. However, the cards are a little difficult to remove from the bottom slots. The wallet needs to be shifted into an awkward position just to remove a card from the bottom sleeve, and if you have larger fingers it will be a chore. I only regularly use 2 cards, and one is on the outermost pocket so it suits my needs just fine. If you regularly use more than 3 cards it may be cumbersome. RFID protection - The protection comes from a film placed between the leather which folds from the outside of the wallet. If your wallet is open, or scanned from the side, it will still detect your cards. An RFID protective sleeve, even if paper thin, around an embossed card will not fit in the wallet. This wallet is therefore more secure than most and do well in general, but definitely not the most RFID secure solution out there. It will still do an adequate job for the most part. Overall this is a good wallet and I highly recommend it.

Got the green wallet because I liked the shade of green that was in the picture but the one I got was more of a brighter green, it’s a good wallet but I’m just being picky. The picture I took doesn’t do it justice, trust me it’s a brighter green in person so keep that in mind if you purchase this color.

Perfect for my needs. slim design, lightweight, and holds just what I need for my daily use.

I’ve been using this wallet for any least a couple of months now and it’s just what I was hoping for. It’s a small wallet I can easily keep in my front pocket. It fits just enough cards … I’ve got at least 8 cards distributed among the pockets. It expands to fit them snugly. Give it a week or two for the material to loosen up. The only down side I can think of is that it still takes me a couple of seconds to get out the cards I store in the inside pockets. Also note that the outside pocket does not block card readers. That’s where I store my most used credit card so I don’t even have to take it out to use the proximity scanners. You also have to make sure the bills are aligned when you put them in (if you do t want it to look sloppy). But that’s not a shortcoming of the wallet. That’s just because it’s a small wallet and it comes with the territory. Fingers crossed. I like the wallet and hope it will last a few years. Cheers!

2yrs review: best wallet I’ve ever owned. Looks like new. Card holders are not loose like most wallets get. Really impressed with the quality of this wallet
