Bellroy Card Sleeve (Premium Leather Card Holder or Minimalist Wallet, Holds 2-8 Cards or Business Cards, Folded Note Storage) - Ocean

The Bellory Card Sleeve wallet is a fantastic ultra-slim wallet. Let's start off with some specs. The wallet is 4" high and 2.75" wide. My wallet, currently containing a few cash bills, 2 credit cards, 2 IDs, and a metro card, measures just short of .5" thick at its widest point and 3/16" thick at its narrowest point. To give a comparison, my wallet is just slightly more than half the thickness of my iPhone inside its slim-fit case.The leather is of noticeably higher quality than my previous Perry Ellis wallet, and the stitching, as far as I can tell, is tight and well crafted. The leather on the black version isn't a dark black, but rather a slightly lighter black which I find more tasteful and elegant. I've only had the wallet a few months, but so far there are no signs of wear. One thing I should mention is that some people have had the card numbers on their cards fraying the leather on the exterior sleeves. I purposely put a card that's smooth (i.e., doesn't have card numbers popping up) in the exterior sleeves, so the leather is still in perfect condition for me. An alternative to avoid this problem is to put your card in backwards, so that the card numbers face the inside of the wallet rather than the outside.Functionally, the wallet has an interior pocket for most of your cards/cash, and two small exterior sleeves for easy-access cards. There's also a pull sleeve that pulls up the cards from the inside pocket, and that slides back into place once you put your cards back in. I wasn't sure beforehand if I would use it, but it actually works very well and is extremely convenient. One minor inconvenience, however, is that the wallet isn't large enough to put bills in unfolded. In order to make the bills small enough to fit, you'll need to trifold them. This also makes taking out the bills from the wallet a bit more of a hassle than taking out bills from a larger bifold or trifold wallet.As mentioned above, I have five cards plus a few cash bills in my wallet. The wallet can certainly hold a few more items. However, if you need to carry around more than, say, six cards, or if you want to carry around a lot of cash, then this wallet might not work well for you. On the other hand, if you want to try and slim down the items in your wallet, and limit yourself to a few cards and cash, this wallet is perfect. I was frustrated previously with bulky wallets that bulged out of my pants. That's no longer a problem with this wallet. And the easy access cards make access to my wallet feel much more convenient and fluid.The wallet is also very aesthetically pleasing. It exudes a sleek, modern look, and it's casual but also elegant. I can say without hesitation that this is my favorite wallet I've ever owned. If my current Bellroy Card Sleeve were lost or if it wears down, I'd buy another one.

I've always wanted a slim wallet, but when you need to carry a reasonable amount of cash and 5+ cards things tend to fatten up pretty quick. Still, I've tried a bunch of options. The Bellroy card sleeve is the first I've used that works well.The main problem with most slim wallets is that you stack all the cards in a row and it's hard to find what you're looking for. While the Bellroy can't conquer the easy-viewing problem that occurs when all your cards are stacked in a pile, it does solve the other serious issue pretty much every slim wallet faces: getting the cards out. Most of the time you have to push awkwardly to remove the cards from their holster or struggle to pull one out. The Bellroy alleviates this pain by employing a pull tab so you can pop your cards out. Because it doesn't squeeze the life out of everything you put in it, when the cards are ejected there's also a little room to browse. I use three cards most often, and so I keep them up front. This makes it very easy to quickly find what I'm looking for.The Bellroy offers two slots on each side of the wallet for cash, a frequently used card, or really whatever other flat thing you want to put inside. I only use one of the slots for cash and leave the other empty to reduce bulk. While very accommodating, you have to tri-fold money in order to get an optimal fit. This is a little annoying, but since I've gotten the hang of it I don't mind. If you carry lots and lots of cash, though, it won't fit well in the wallet. In my opinion, each slot accommodates about 8 bills. You can fit more in there, but probably at risk of stretching the wallet out or causing damage if attempted over the long-term.As for the quality, it's fantastic. I've been using the Bellroy for several months now and it's about as good as new. It's small yet tough. You might think it could fold or flop around a bit when empty, but it has a very sturdy build. The design is also quite simple and attractive. While I'm personally not a big fan of leather, it's even hard for me to deny how nice this wallet is.If you're looking for a slimmer pocket profile and still want to carry a fair (5-10) cards and some cash, this is a great wallet for you. If you want more than that, you either need to consider downsizing your pocket or looking for a bulkier option. While this is the best slim wallet I've used—and I've tried a lot of them—they all have an obvious trade-off: space. If that compromise suits you, you're not going to find a better wallet than this.

Great credit card wallet! The design lets me hold all my credit card and credit card type stuff plus the pull tab works perfectly. It' creates a very small, comfortable form factor to carry in your jean pocket or any pants, jacket, etc. The leather is of high quality. I chose the dark blue or navy and love it. Keep in mind if you put a lot of credit cards in the wallet, that will stretch the leather out and going back down to a smaller number of cards will be harder since the wallet it stretched out a bit as natural leather does. If you don't plan on decreasing the amount of cards or just have a regular amount of credit cards and even some cash this is great. My navy version did show color discoloration over years of time and having too many cards in it. Bellroy won't replace their products if you over stuff them or it is not a legitimate manufacturing or material defect. Its hard to argue with that type of warranty, especially on something that will get so much use. All in all I loved it so much I bought another because I really liked it. I only carry my credit cards, license, and other credit card style cards and my cash is a separate solution so for me wanting a thin easily hidden and accessible wallet it works great. I use the pull tab ALL THE TIME and it has not broken or had any issues. I probably have 12 cards in there.

This is a really good wallet but it lacks RFID blocking, it’s a good idea to add an RFID blocking material in between the inner and outer card slots so that you can scan bus passes without the machines detecting your other cards.It takes cash okay in the rear pocket, don’t put more that. 5 bills otherwise it’ll stretch a bit too much.

Excellent quality for the price. Stylish and slim. I can fit 10 cards in it. Very happy with my purchase.

Ya van 4 años y no se ha desgastado para nada, me libre de las horribles carteras

Me gusto el color, el tamaño es perfecto y la pestaña ayuda a sacar las tarjetas fácilmente.

En verdad es un diseño que lo hace ser muy delgado, incluso cuando guardas varias tarjetas mantiene ese perfil delgado. Si te interesa algo minimalista y de calidad, lo recomiendo ampliamente.
