I've been using this Bellroy Card Sleeve for 5+ years and have loved it every single day. Even for the 2 weeks when it was lost. It felt out of my parked truck on a Toronto street in the winter, into a snow bank, ended up soaked, ran over, and eventually found and returned by a good Samaratin to the local police station. Had dirt ground into it, looked beaten up, but within a few weeks of use, the leather bounced back so amazingly well. That was 2 years ago, and it looks amazing to this day. I can confirm, the pull tab still works perfectly. The wallet looks incredible after 5 years, not a stitch is out of place. 10/10
I’ve been using the bellroy card sleeve for almost a year and loved every single day with it. The smooth leather, small print and easy access is my main reason for using it. Love your videos man. Keep it up
Just discovered your channel/video. I have to say that bellroy has been serving me well for the last 4 years. After a bit of time, the leather stretches enough for the outside card to go down a bit more to have the pull-tab just barely outside for you to reach it better. But I don’t put cash/credit card on the outside b/c it increases the overall thickness. I place my most often used cards inside but on the outer part of the stack. So when I pull it up, just tune bit, I have access to 2 cards on the outside. Put thin cards on the outside (like metro) since I found that it reduces the overall thickness and prevents leaving any marks on the pants. I place the once/twice a day use cards like the metro on the outside since it is harder to pull cards from the outside than inside. Also, since I carry very few bills (couple of $20s), I do a 2-fold to make it barely as thick as a card and put it inside but on the outer part of the stack. Cash slides deeper into the stack so that only when I pull the tab all the way, the cash pops up. On a light pull, I get access to the cards on the stack.
The herschel Charlie is massive, I brought one years ago thinking it was small but it’s not… I used a lascote card holder for years, moved to a Hugo boss one when the lascote one got tried looking… Tried using the herschel after nearly losing the the Hugo… but I took one look at it when it arrived and placed it in the draw. Been using a life adventure bifold that is the same size of most card holders, folded the other way for quicker access to the cards and the notes went in the middle. Just went to look for the Herschel and I’ve found an animal card holder that I never knew I had…. Smaller than my leather card holders, going to run with that for a while with a money clip to see how it goes.
For nearly two decades, I used a Cross bifold. This year, I started a new side project that needed its own small planner, so I decided to make the passport-sized Traveler's Company notebook part of my EDC. I've migrated my wallet into the vinyl zip pouch. It also has two notebook inserts and a kraft folder, as well as a pen loop. Despite all that, it comes out _thinner_ than the Cross wallet. That said, it's about as wide as I could possibly go for a pocket wallet, and I don't know that I'll continue to use this setup once the side project is complete. But it's super handy to always have a notebook and a pen on hand.
I purchased a bell Roy slim sleeve and was also surprised at how thin the leather was. To me that made it feel cheap. Considering it was 89$ I expected more. It quickly loosened up to where my cards would just slide out with little effort.
Currently using herschel charlie in leather version and absolutely loving it usually i put 1 card in each front slot and 2 card in back slot and some cash in the middle
It's funny ou mentioned having 2 of the same wallet. I myself have 3 Bellroy Card Sleeves. A light tan, a medium tan, and a green. I've bought them as I love the wallet so much, I wanted to have back ups in case one ever got lost, stolen, damaged etc. and in the worst case scenario that they stopped making them.
I use a RAINS water resistant slim leather wallet I got through a Bespoke Post box. Before that I was using a generic knockoff of a ridge wallet I found in Amazon, and was using that for a few years before I swapped about a month ago. It’s a lot slimmer than what I was using before, and it’s helped me cut back on carrying around so much bloat. Also it looks super clean, which is half the battle.
hey just FYI - cash can be done on the charlie wallet. I have the same leather one as you and have tons of cash + cards. the secret is to fold the cash and press down with some weights (or just place the notes upside down in the wallet and it slims out over time). once the fold crease is solid, it fits in sooo good!
After carrying a George Costanza wallet for far too long, my current EDC is the BULLIANT slim Leather Wallet Front Pocket Card Holder. The Bulliant has held up extremely well over the last year, looks pretty sleek, and is extremely affordable. If there's one downside, it may have still have too much storage, so if you're not diligent, pocket bloat can easily return. Thanks for the great content and reviews!
I use a wallet from Minimalism Brand modified without the pull tab. It acommodates my 6 to 8 EDC cards, as well as cash, an victorinox mini and a bic lighter. All in a package smaller than an altoids tin so pretty happy with it
My go to is a Gucci Kingsnake card holder, and I also just picked up a nomad horween leather card wallet. I also have a Bellroy Hide n Seek billfold, but I never use it as it's too big for my liking
I’m using a 1/1 carved wallet. I’ve used it for a bit over a year and it’s holding up well. Though you can only put in about 5 cards and then some cash.
I’ve been using burnt titanium ridge wallet since 2019 went a for a minimalist wallet after losing $700 cash once in my old style bifold leather wallet. Made the choice to Completely go card only and carry emergency cash $50 at most 2 $20 1 $10. Still love it but looking for additional wallet leather preferably I miss the texture mostly and the looks of it. Do you have any vids on nomad wallets? those have also caught my eye right now.
My current edc wallet that I carry with me is the Revelot W1 SMART. I used it pretty often as I still use cash when they do not have other options. Plus it is quite durable and compact, most often than not I will just chuck it into my slings with my keys and everything and it still holds up quite well to all the beating that it has gone through.
I just recently picked up a Coach medium zip around wallet from a friend. Slightly bigger than what I’m used to carrying, but it’s nice for my needs right now.
I've been using a Dash wallet for several years now. It's holds up pretty well, fit all my cards and cash. I have to add an insert for my coins though..
I've been using the Vaultsking Manhattan for 4 years now but it recently failed on me, the elastic strap ripped. I would love to win the Herschel wallet to replace it.
i own both Herschel Wallets i like the Raven more. i have them both in leather Brown. Didn't know the Raven was discontinued . i also own a louis Vuitton , Gucci , Coach and Bellroy wallet. i just love leather wallets.
I recently move again to a bifold by Armani [it's almost new] because my slim wallet fall apart and I can't decide mi next slim wallet, I'm interested in some Bellroy's models
Hey man, seeing you cards and cash requirements I would encourage you to buy an Open Sea Leather Gundeck as it hits all your requirements and it'll look cleaner tbh
Bleep! Ketelatan! I was hoping to enter the give away but I just found out about your video today - October. Ya, sudah! It is such a nice surprise seeing you slipping an Indonesian Rupiah (2:40).

I use the aluminum version of Ridge wallet with money clip. A big downside for me is that it’s very heavy.
I currently use the trayvax accent and I love the leather smell. I am looking at the trove to go slim and change it up . You can’t beat leather

I recommend leaving your Costco card in your vehicle, and a digital version on your phone.
I use the Bellroy Slim in black leather and I’m really like it so far. I hope it holds up well through time.

I have used a Secrid wallet for the last ten years or so. Works for me.
had one of these, Bellroy stretches within less than a month - I returned 2 of them

I live in Europe and cash here is very common and also coins. So i use a bifolder to carry my 5 cards cash and my coins.

Don't use cards, use cash. If they phase out cash and everything becomes digital, they can take whatever they want from you. Cash is freedom.
