Columbia Men's RFID Leather Wallet - Big Skinny Trifold Vertical Security Protection Credit Card Slots and ID Window

Comment

Wallet tore after less than a month of use. I only stored 2 cards in one section of the tri fold- and it already tore.

Being the victim of RFID pick pocket thieves twice before I finally said ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Ive had this wallet for about a month now. The RFID works! I tested it several times with my work ID and it blocked the signal. I feel much better about my identity now that I have this wallet. I recommend this wallet to everyone. Its worth the money.

Bought this wallet mainly for trips. Not as big as my previous wallet, so it forced me to clean out some clutter. Once it squished down a bit as I used it more, it takes up very little pocket space. One thing, it will will set off the metal detector as I found out. Being TSApre, I am used to bouncing right through security. Be sure to stow it in your carry on.

This wallet is nearly identical to my old wallet I have carried for several years now. The old one was starting to deteriorate, so I decided to replace it with one that had the RFID protection. As many other reviewers have pointed out, credit cards fit tightly, but not extremely so. I can live with it. I do miss having the currency divider for bills though. I dont travel out of the country very often, but when I do, I like to separate the two currencies. I really dont notice this wallet being any bulkier than my old one, and as I have yet to receive any cards with RFID, I havent tested that feature. It is the coming thing though, so I know somewhere down the road, Ill need it. Columbia could have saved the money they spent on the fancy little metal box and reduced the cost accordingly and it would have pleased me. I cant use the box for anything anyway, it got crushed in shipment.

I bought this in July 2016, and today (as of October 2018) it has worn out...the seams are splitting and the metal RF blocking material is falling out. Should I expect a longer life? I dunno, but if you do, then this might not be for you. Overall, though, I like the design and the capacity. Since the price is OK, Ill probably buy another similar one (the price seems to vary quite a bit based on the color). But my expectations are, well, meh.... UPDATE. Well I ordered another one anyway and discovered it has a valuable feature that the other one lacked - it controls my credit card spending! It does it by not releasing my credit card when I want/need to use it. Seriously, there is some adhesive substance that in the pockets where the cards go that holds the card in place like iron. I have had to lift and pry the material around the card to release it...a real PITA. No it’s not just tight leather. I put talcum powder down the pocket but it helped only for a day or two. So I’m seriously considering returning it - also a PITA. Reducing it to two stars. SECOND UPDATE (2/2/19): I decided to keep it. What a mistake! The glue used in ththe construction makes it impossible to get cards out. Nothing fixes it. I tried putting talcum powder in the card slots; after a few days back to the same problem. I used some old gift cards to try to block the glue, and the credit cards still had to be wrestled out SO DONT BUY THIS! ITS GOT A MAJOR FLAW THAT YOU CANNOT FIX. If I could return it I would.
