Very nice wallet
Color: Dark Coffee, Style: Modern
nice wallet. Nice finish on the leather that will age well. Plenty of room for credit cards, drivers license and a spare key. Thickness is just fine, on track with my last wallet. Well designed, comfortable in the pocket and should last a long time. I have a tendency to keep wallets for 10+ years so I'm sure this will make it

Too soon to tell. Does hold All my cards. good looking wallet. However, once all cards are in place, very stiff and thick. As I said, Time will tell. Hope it will soften with use. Saved my old one ...Just in case. Patty

I expect to be using it for years
Color: Brown, Style: Modern
Very well made product. It matched the description in every way. It is still a little stiff but I know it will stretch into a comfortable use product because that is how leather is. Why did you pick this product vs others?: I liked the retro look that was offered Card capacity: including hiden pockets there are 13 as described. Comfort: nicely smooth and fits well in my pocket.  Slimness:   A smidge bulkier than expected but not a problem Value for money: definitely worth the price. Smell: I could smell the leather tanning.  Quality: My girl friend is proud to have me produce it at the bar.
