Want to know what I chose in the end, after tens of videos? Bellroy Note Sleeve. I’ve been using it for almost one year and it’s been great so far: its quality is even higher than the rate declared in the video! Probably the best wallet I’ve ever owned.

@@7ish4m It shows some nice signs caused by the use, and it still perfectly works. I live in Italy, where you’re generally forced to use a lot of coins: my Note Sleeve is able to face even this circumstance. I mean, it’s not the ideal wallet for the ones who need to carry tens of coins, but I have to admit that it manages the whole coins-affaire in an admirable way. Generally, I still love it and I don’t regret the day I bought it. Such a well crafted and comfortable wallet… Big up for Bellroy.

I have the travel wallet and the pocket card. I have noticed that bellroy products seem to scuff and leave marks very easily. Must be due to the thin leather? Anyway after much deliberation and research I have decided to press ahead and order the note sleeve (black)

I was in Japan only last week. I used the Bellroy Pocket Card mostly for the coins. It worked very well. The only problem was I had to triple fold the bank notes. The Yen bank notes are so crisp and flat I felt very bad having to fold them lol. I put 2-3 cards on the right hand slot along woth receipts, the triple folded bank notes in the middle section and the coins to the left hand pocket. It worked fine, but no more than 7-8 bank notes of they start to get caught in the zip.

Mine lasted less than 3 years before the leather failed at the bottom of the folding area where the outer leather folds in under the inner leather.
