Great review, but I wanted to add that I have had this wallet for two years and LOVE it. I see what you are saying about the credit cards but it doesn't really bother me. The zippers are fabulous--there is nothing more luxurious than a LV zipper every day. And there is no comparison between the MK wallet and your LV zippy. The LV ZIPPY is GORGEOUS, sleek and classy. You bought a winner
I really enjoy this video bc youre in-depth on the Flaws! No other review videos I have seen so far seem to grasp the flaws, only mention how fabulous their wallet is. Kudos!
Great review!! I thought I was the only one that noticed this issue with the cards getting caught in the corner!! I also said to my husband that I wished the wallet was more soft like my MK wallet, this one is so hard! Didn't stopped me from buying it!! Thanks for the video, the best zippy review on TH-cam by far!
Thanks for viewing my video. I'm glad you enjoyed my review. I honestly think the Michael Kors wallet was inspired by the Louis Vuitton Zippy. I think I love my Louis Vuitton more because of the craftsmanship, but if I didn't have any issues with it I would love it even more. I love the Micheal kors wallet too, but it hasn't lasted through time and its falling apart now... As far as price goes, it's about how much you are willing to invest.
Thank you for your honest opinion on my opinion of the zippy wallet. FYI I paid over $750 for this wallet..not $300. I also own many LV handbags and accessories so I'm quite aware of the quality of this brand. My issues with this wallet are 'mine' and it's okay if you don't share the same view. I still stand by my review and think there are others who benefit knowing what I didn't know. I look forward to seeing your video review someday.
Oh wow, lol. I actually bought the emilie then I exchanged to sarah bec it seems too flimsy. Bec of TH-cam comments about the glaze tearing I exchanged again to zippy. But I recently exchanged it to a bag.
I wanted everything to match, so I just got the Monogram. I think this print is also timeless, recognizable, and I love the brown colors, so I just went with what I knew I would always love. I have no regrets and I'm glad with my decision. I hope this answers your question.
Hi, you mentioned how the zipper drags at the corners of the wallet. You can use a little bit of wax paper around the areas that you feel need it, this will help the zipper close along the opening quite well. Also, you can take the wax paper and rub it along your closet rods so that moving hangers back n forth will glide with much more ease.
I love, love loooveee the way you give detailed and unbiased reviews on this product! Please continue doing it with all of your handbags, make-up, etc. I will be watching your channel - hopefully for life!
Very interesting about the cards hitting the zipper - no one ever mentions that. I hv the Sarah, but really debated about getn the zippy. I do hv a zippy coin wallet & love that thou - not noticed the cards hitting anything. But, ... I would def think a lot harder about going 4 a zippy in the future... thnx!
Love the review. I know what you mean about the credit card slots, both difficulty getting but also getting out and catching the zip. I have had the same issue with a Mulberry zipped wallet of similar size so when I bought my LV I went for the zippy organiser. This means that the card slots on one part don't get pulled against the zip so you can put your most used ones there and other in the more difficult area. I do love the organiser maybe it would be an option for you in the future.
My thoughts about this wallet have not changed. I love the style of the wallet and how everything in it has a function. The craftsmanship is really beautiful but I still stand by all my cons. If I had to choose btwn my Zippy Michael Kors and Zippy LV, I'd say hands down the Michael Kors. If I had to choose any wallet beside the zippy, I'd say get the sarah or insolite. I hope this helps. Good Luck.
Thanks for the comment and affirming that this is indeed an issue with the zippy wallet. I wish you had watched this video early and tested it out at LV before you purchased it. Now that you do have it, it'll grow on you and you'll just be used to it. Congrats!
I don't own a zippy organizer or the Trevi PM so I couldn't tell you what I think about them. If the wallet is too wide, try putting the smallest width in first and then slide the wide part in. This may be an inconvenience, so all it depends on what your willing to put up with. Good luck.
have your thoughts on this wallet changed? the points you mentioned about the cons of the wallet prevent me from getting it, but i just love the overall look and efficiency of it! does it get annoying to have to zip it open and close all the time? i've never owned a zippy wallet before so your input is greatly appreciated.
Just wondering about your thoughts regarding the zippy organizer. I am planning to purchase the Trevi pm purse from Louis Vuitton. I am trying to decide one the zippy wallet or the zippy organizer. I heard the opening of the Trevi pm purse is small and it may be difficult to get the zippy organizer in an out because it is a bigger wallet than the zippy wallet. Any advice?
Excellent review! One of the best I've ever seen. I am about to buy a new wallet and been contemplating between the zippy and Sarah..after watching your review I think I'll go with the Sarah. The credit card problem would drive me nuts!! Thanks so much for the great review:)
Hi Ash, nice video u got here. Btw, can u purchase that leather wristlet from LV boutique? I checked their website but couldn't find it. I want one for my zippy wallet too :)
OMG!! i have the same issues with mine. thought i'm the only one, hehe there have been a lot of reviews popping up on my subscription list about the LV wallets but this is honesly the best one!
Thanks, the wristlet is not from LV. It's a Dooney and Bourke. Unfortunately its hard to find now but you can use any strap and attach it to the zipper pull.
After watching this video, I don't think I will buy the zippy wallet. I love my Sarah much better....no issues w/ the credit card hitting the zipper when taking out or putting in. Thanks a lot for the review!
ana ezernack no it's still a great purchase, the things she pointed out really are not a big deal and its all in the user of the wallet. I ave this wallet and I don't experience any of what she mentioned.
Update--- I just realized the rubbing is not caused from credit cards but from the bottom of coin pouch on inside. My wallet is made in Spain. Are you having a similar issue with wearing on outside canvas due to bottom of coin pouch on inside. Very tight so causing rubbing it looks like. Thanks
Great review! I have the same issues with my Coach wallet, it's very annoying. Do you have any recommendations for an LV wallet whether it be vintage or new? Thanks.
OMG..this has got to be THE BEST Zippy Wallet review! I love how you took your time to explain the pros and cons of this wallet. The cons you stated are the reason I went with the French Purse Wallet, and I find that only one of my CC slots has widened(yup, my most used card..debit card). I will definitely be trying your 2CC/slot trick! Thanks so much for having done this video! Great job! =)
Yes I still have it. I've downsized so I do not use it anymore but I would still recommend getting it if you like to carry alot of items. Very minimal wear and tear on this wallet after 10 years.
Great review. I wish I would have seen this before I purchased last year. Worst buy ever for me although has positive sides to it. I got the zippy organizer though. Future plans in buying definitely will look at your review first. Good job...
Thanks, I think if I purchase another one in the future it probably would be the Insolite wallet. I like the snap closures, credit card pockets, and the coin compartment. Plus this wallet seem like it would be soft.
ashxl amazing video and very detailed. Everytime i go look at wallets i looks for how soft it is and if it would fit my LG phone in it as well. Right now i have a small walmart wristlet but its breaking and thsnks to your video, i am thinking about buying a designer wallet. Awesome job. Cant wait to see more of your videos. I will subscribe to you too. ~Aiko.
Wow beautiful and perfect review! I really loved it and I love your background, hihi ^^. I was doubting about the Sarah Wallet and this one, although I already have the small Zippy one. I also almost forgot how annoying it is with the card slots >
Ashxl- first excellent review! Nice job. Question, have you had any issues with cards pushing to the bottom and causing wearing at fold at bottom of wallet? Non zipper side?
Love your review!! It is the best wallet review i've ever watched! Which wallet do you prefer more? the louis vuitton zippy or michael kors? with consideration with the price too... thanks for your help!! :)
thank you so much for this video, I'm on the search for my first designer wallet and I actually wanted a zip around wallet because I wanted to store my phone in it! But I guess i'll think again! LOL
Do you have a link where I can get the strap? I saw your review and finally just bought it to go along with my bag! :) But I'm a type that would drop my wallet if I carry it so I feel that getting that strap would help a lot! Thanks!
Vina Koolkat Thank you for watching my review. The strap is from a vintage Dooney and Bourke Coin Purse and unfortunately you can not get it anymore. Louis Vuitton does have their own...Dragonne Amovible, which looks beautiful! Hope this helps!
I was liking the zippy but it's just too much money for a wallet. I recently purchased a Gucci wallet and happy with it and it was on sale too. It just seems more durable.
Great review, but I wanted to add that I have had this wallet for two years and LOVE it. I see what you are saying about the credit cards but it doesn't really bother me. The zippers are fabulous--there is nothing more luxurious than a LV zipper every day. And there is no comparison between the MK wallet and your LV zippy. The LV ZIPPY is GORGEOUS, sleek and classy.

So true!
Great review! Finally one that isn't just raving about the pros of an LV but actually focuses on the challenges that come with it. Thanks!!
+K kab Thanks!

Have the MK zippy. Love it! I switch every month so the wear is a little spread out. And I like the variety.
Does LV also make a wrist strap (in *_matching brown_* Monogram) to clip onto the zipper-pull?
Your welcome, it makes me happy to hear that you enjoyed my video!
I wanted everything to match, so I just got the Monogram. I think this print is also timeless, recognizable, and I love the brown colors, so I just went with what I knew I would always love. I have no regrets and I'm glad with my decision. I hope this answers your question.
The zipper edges get much smoother after a week or so. All of my LV’s do this at first but become like butter shortly after using .

Hey there. I totally agree with the card touching the zipper. I have the same issue with my zippy coin purse and i plan to sell it 😞
I love, love loooveee the way you give detailed and unbiased reviews on this product! Please continue doing it with all of your handbags, make-up, etc. I will be watching your channel - hopefully for life!

This made me rethink wanting to get the zippy wallet thank you. I'll be getting the Sarah wallet instead.
Thanks for this. I have been wanting a zippy for the longest time.

Would love to know if you still use this wallet and whether you store a newer model phone in it that is slimmer than the older model?

I purchased this strap from a Dooney and Bourke coin purse. It was a very long time ago, so I'm not sure if you'll find this same strap. Good luck!
She did a really good job reviewing the zippy wallet. Thx.
Thanks.
They have straps for key chains but not one identical to the one in my demonstration. I got mine a long time ago from Dooney and Bourke.
Thank you for watching... I wish I there was a video like this before I bought this wallet, I would of definitely went with another wallet too.

Hey I was wondering why u chose this print instead of the other prints such as vernis, multicolor?
Hi Ash, nice video u got here. Btw, can u purchase that leather wristlet from LV boutique? I checked their website but couldn't find it. I want one for my zippy wallet too :)
OMG!! i have the same issues with mine. thought i'm the only one, hehe

Very honest, detailed review. Thank you. So helpful when considering buying this wallet as it is not cheap. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Wow,great review ever.I am glad I got the Lv zippy organizer.a little bigger than the ZCW but nothing of these issues you stated.
After watching this video, I don't think I will buy the zippy wallet. I love my Sarah much better....no issues w/ the credit card hitting the zipper when taking out or putting in. Thanks a lot for the review!
Where did you find the strap to make it a wristlet?
Liked that you pointed out the flaws, I have to rethink my purchase many thanks
ana ezernack no it's still a great purchase, the things she pointed out really are not a big deal and its all in the user of the wallet. I ave this wallet and I don't experience any of what she mentioned.

great review! What are your thoughts on guys using these long zipper wallets from LV?
Sebastian Pineros These wallets are very unisex, that's what I love about LV.
I have had two zippy wallets. My first one was a Damier Ebene. My current zippy is a Prada saffiano in black. Oh and I'm a dude. Lol
oh nice! MaeSekou
Very nice wallet i love it
I love the detail you have in this very helpful video. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Hello! Where did you get that cutout jar in the background? Is it salmon pink?
OMG..this has got to be THE BEST Zippy Wallet review! I love how you took your time to explain the pros and cons of this wallet. The cons you stated are the reason I went with the French Purse Wallet, and I find that only one of my CC slots has widened(yup, my most used card..debit card). I will definitely be trying your 2CC/slot trick! Thanks so much for having done this video! Great job! =)
Yr vid was very helpful, & informative I really wish I would have seen yr review before purchasing my wallet.
Glad it was helpful!
This is an excellent review. Very thorough. I feel like I know everything there is to know about this wallet now haha
Hi! Thanks for the review. Where did you get the wristlet?
It's an old piece from a Dooney and Bourke coin purse.
How much does that wallet go for thse days??
Would like to know if you still have This wallet? Do you recommend this wallet
Yes I still have it. I've downsized so I do not use it anymore but I would still recommend getting it if you like to carry alot of items. Very minimal wear and tear on this wallet after 10 years.
Thanks, I just saw that LV site has the Dragonne that can be attached to the D ring :)
Great review. I wish I would have seen this before I purchased last year. Worst buy ever for me although has positive sides to it. I got the zippy organizer though. Future plans in buying definitely will look at your review first. Good job...
Thanks, I think if I purchase another one in the future it probably would be the Insolite wallet. I like the snap closures, credit card pockets, and the coin compartment. Plus this wallet seem like it would be soft.
the best review of the zippy wallet, good job well done thank s for sharing and greetings from Italy
Very detailed review. Looking forward to your future bag and SLGs reviews
urbanmiss26 Thanks!!!
ashxl amazing video and very detailed. Everytime i go look at wallets i looks for how soft it is and if it would fit my LG phone in it as well. Right now i have a small walmart wristlet but its breaking and thsnks to your video, i am thinking about buying a designer wallet.
Awesome job. Cant wait to see more of your videos. I will subscribe to you too.
~Aiko.
Super helpful video! I always store my phone in my wallet so that was a game changer for me. I won’t be buying the LV zippy wallet
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for you comment. Wow a viewer from Italy?!!! Thanks for watching.
Wow beautiful and perfect review! I really loved it and I love your background, hihi ^^. I was doubting about the Sarah Wallet and this one, although I already have the small Zippy one. I also almost forgot how annoying it is with the card slots >
Ashxl- first excellent review! Nice job. Question, have you had any issues with cards pushing to the bottom and causing wearing at fold at bottom of wallet? Non zipper side?
Can you put your phone in the wallet if you wanted to?
Have u had any issue with the glazing on your wallet?
How much? I looked in their website but they didn't put it
What a thorough review. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Is this the zippy organizer? Or the smaller zippy wallet?
hey just found your video what color is the inside of your wallet thank you so much
Brown.
Love your review!! It is the best wallet review i've ever watched!
Which wallet do you prefer more? the louis vuitton zippy or michael kors? with consideration with the price too...
thanks for your help!! :)
Would you say that you would buy this wallet again? Did u get the MK first or the LV?
Can you show the logo inside the wallet.
thank you so much for this video, I'm on the search for my first designer wallet and I actually wanted a zip around wallet because I wanted to store my phone in it! But I guess i'll think again! LOL
For this wallet. Where did you get the little strap that you attached to make it a wristlet????
Hi Cristy. Louis Vuitton has a wristlet: Dragonne Amovible.
Did the zippy come with the wristlet handle?
A very thorough review! Functionality is the key thing. We can know what to expect. I'm getting the Insolite.
The red one is to die for I can't wait until I'm able to get it !!!!
Yes! That's what I love about LV. The are timeless and they do last a long time!
your reviews are amazing!! keep them coming!
I got the MK one first and that's what convinced me to get the LV. I would not buy this wallet again, maybe another style from LV.
Great review! I have the same issues you discussed. In addition, I've found the zipper to be sharp! xx
Do you have a link where I can get the strap? I saw your review and finally just bought it to go along with my bag! :) But I'm a type that would drop my wallet if I carry it so I feel that getting that strap would help a lot! Thanks!
Vina Koolkat Thank you for watching my review. The strap is from a vintage Dooney and Bourke Coin Purse and unfortunately you can not get it anymore. Louis Vuitton does have their own...Dragonne Amovible, which looks beautiful! Hope this helps!
why dont you look on the website?
Hi! May I know which code is this one? Is this the 60017?
Yes it is!
I bought my zìppy at Holt Renfrew in 2013 and there is no serial or code number anywhere, is this right?
How much it is?
Do u use it everyday?
Do all zipper long wallets hold 12 cards or fo some hold only 8
The old model was 8, the new model is now 12.
Where can i get a wrist strap
Search for Louis Vuitton Dragonne Amovible.
how much it cost for LV zippy wallet ? please info. Thanks
Devi Arradhani You can visit LV website for the latest prices in your country!
where is the date code on the wallet? I bought one but just wanna make sure it's real
I purchased the zippy wallet, and I noticed it is super hard too. Is yours still hard?
TheMaterpiece19 It was hard, but it's soft now.
Thankyou. I found this review very helpful ❤
I was liking the zippy but it's just too much money for a wallet. I recently purchased a Gucci wallet and happy with it and it was on sale too. It just seems more durable.
Thanks for your wonderful honest review!!! Love you!!!!
Yes, I still use it everyday! Thanks.
Excellent review :) thank you. Picking mine up today ♥️
Thanks and congrats!
Hi
Ur review was awesome
In depth analysis of d wallet 👍🏻
Thanks!
What's the name of the Michael Kors one?
Hi Michelle. I don't know, this is an old wallet, which I don't think Michael Kors makes anymore.
Oh that sucks but thanks anyway
I don't seem to have the issues you seem to have getting credit cards out, mine come out fine.
Joan Meagher That's great!
Joan Meagher yeah me either I agree...Its all in how you use the wallet
Do you still own the wallet? If so, how is it holding up? Great review btw!
I still have it. I don't use it anymore but it's still in great condition!
No, I haven't seen any. This wallet looks perfect!
