HOW I REVIEW:
As you might know from my „How I make a buying decision“ video: Rather than just looking at the pros, I like to evaluate the cons or flaws of an item and then evaluate if I can live with them. That is why in my video reviews I concentrate more on the cons of an item rather than going over all the features. Therefore everything shown is just a fraction of all the points that go into the verdict and score of an item.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A QUICKLOOK AND A REVIEW:
A Quicklook usually covers pre-production units or items that I only used for a short period of time. While Reviews cover final items that I have reviewed intensively.
LINKS:
For all my videos I decided not to include links for the products. Everyone is living in different countries and therefore has to deal with different shipping and customs fees. That is why I would advice everyone just to Google the product within their country to find the best deals.
For instance: I live in Germany, It wouldn’t make sense to give you a German link while you might be living in USA or Asia. I hope that is understandable.

Have had this wallet for 2.5 years now. It has worked very well, although last week the spring mechanism, pulling back the button, broke down. I still had the receipt, so took it to the store I bought it from. Luckily, they could send it out for repair and it will be finished in a few weeks.
Edit: just got it back after a week and it works perfectly again. Apparently, if you register your secrid wallet at the bottom of their website, you get an extra year of warranty. Hope that helps you out.
I have the secrid for more than 3 years now. My moneyband was stretched to its limits just before the warranty ended. I sent them an email and got a new one for free. After my warranty a small spring inside broke and I sent them another email. They replaced the spring, once again for free. Such a good service.
It may be more expensive than cheap knockoffs that are everywhere nowadays, but the service alone is worth it.
Your outstanding review of this Secrid wallet solidified my interest in finally purchasing this product! I was looking for a quality, minimalist wallet that will hold up for years. I'm very grateful I have this wallet now and with gratitude for your excellent review! I'll carry this wallet in my back pocket and with confidence! 👍👍😄
It’s been over a year since I first watched this. But I’ve finally ordered one, so excited!
How do you like it?
@@randysem it’s amazing slims down my carry incredibly. I keep it in my front pocket however, it’s very uncomfortable to keep it in the back for me
I’ve had my dad’s secrid wallet he got as a gift but never used for about a year and a half and it’s just very amazing.
Have my secrid wallet for 2,5 years now, still going strong!! Great product!
my lever broke off after 2.5 years and they sent me a replacement wallet for free! best company ever imo
I’ve had this Secrid wallet for years (at least 6) and it is still going strong. I love it. One thing that surprises me is that people say you need to fold paper money in half first to fit it in the plastic sleeve. I never do that - paper money fits in flat. Just line up the left hand side of the notes with the left hand side of the plastic sleeve, and then fold the wallet up. The paper money folds into thirds in the same way that the wallet folds into thirds. Maybe this way of storing notes is not for everyone but it works for me.
That’s also how i do it, but maybe it’s because he doesn’t have a button to fasten the flap so it isn’t as securely fitted in?
Great video review Bo! I purchased the Secrid Twin wallet after watching your edc video.
+Chris McLaughlin awesome. But the twin? That's a lot of cards 😂 I hope it's all credit cards 😉
I just got my secrid wallet and so far I enjoy it a lot. It comes with a 3 year warranty and I tried shaking it and cards don't fall out. I use 5 cards with raised numbers and I without raised numbers works great. 👍🏻👍🏻
I just got mine after watching your reviews. This wallet is absolutely amazing. I have fit 6 cards (4 plain + 2 with embossed numbers) in the card holder with no problem. I fit a total 10 cards + 2 name cards + ID and driver's license + some cash. Still the wallet managed to look slim! Great capacity for such compact design.
That's awesome. Glad that you like the wallet after watching my video.
Decided to treat myself and ordered mine today, great video thanks man
Good decision! Thanks for watching my videos!
Man, your videos is the best! thanks for all!!!
+Felipe Machado thank you very much, Felipe
Thanks for the great review. After a few hours of browsing and research, I think I've made my choice. Excellent video and editing!
Thank you very much, Jared. Let me know how you like the wallet if you should get it
Picked one up today with my wife, and she was so taken by it, we bought a Secrid mini for her, too. The protector's small form factor and the leather quality are my favourite points. Hope it serves us as well as its served you. Subscribed!
That's awesome. Thanks for the sub 😉✌️
Recently picked up vintage blue secrid and its amazing. Your videos really helped me decide between this and the ekster counterpart.
That's awesome! I'm glad that my videos helped you! Cheers, mate!
Hi Bo, I just want to say thank you. Your very first review of the Secrid Slim Wallet helped me to pick a wallet back then. I really enjoy the Slim Wallet as my daily driver and share your thoughts. Keep up the good work, I really appreciate it.
+ilostmypwd that's awesome. Glad to hear that you watched both videos. Thanks 😉 ✌️
can't wait for your next vid! sorry if this was asked before but will you be doing a review on the peak design everyday backpack??
+wawa20oz thanks, mate.
I would really love to review that bag. Chase reeves just uploaded a great review on that bag. It is on my list, but I haven't had the chance to get one yet
Haven't had mine for long (around a year) and its working amazingly and I love it so much! Would highly recommend it
+SoftPawsify glad to hear that I'm not the only one. Cheers
Made me want to get this instead of the Bellroy note sleeve. Thanks for the awesome review!
You're very welcome, Charlie! Thanks for watching my video!
Changed from Bellroy's Hide & Seek a year ago to Secrid. Feels great and keep on using it everyday.
Probably will look into ekster and Andar Pilots as well. Great video for recommend good wallets.
+WingWatson the ekster and the andar pilot reviews are coming within the next two weeks 😉
Hi Bo, really like your videos, big thumbs up, my secrid wallet has held up beatifully through the years and is still like new except for some scrapes on the aluminium from when i lost in on the ground :)
+Dávið Jacobsen thanks, David. I'm glad that your Secrid is holding up well. The scratches give character 😉
The bellroy slim sleeve is amazing. I had the Most Rad wallet before (yes thats it name lol) and it worked fine. But the Bellroy wallet is made so well and so slim i sometimes forget its in my pocket.
+Br0kenBot Bellroy makes some great stuff.
Mag deine Videos sehr. Sehr schöner Stil, und informativ. Überhaupt ist dein Content sehr sehr gut. Vielfältig und unterhaltsam. Mach bitte weiter so! :)
Danke für den netten Kommentar! Weiß ich sehr zu schätzen. Mehr Videos sind in Arbeit ;-)
Watched your reviews, and cancelled my Ekster 2 order (too long wait time anyway) and ordered Secrid - arrived in one day, and super happy about the wallet.
Hey Igor!
Cool. I'm sure you will be happy with the Secrid wallet! Cheers, mate!
their after-sales support is top notch too, it shows they really care
Thanks for the follow up, you are doing gods work.
+Rene Štefančič thanks, Rene ✌️😉
Got mine a couple of months ago in the black vintage model. I do have to say it's the best wallet I ever had, the quality is just amazing. I also have to give credit to where it's due, I thank Bo for this review and probably the main influence of my purchase!
You got the mini (with clasp) or the slim?
@@user-gp5md9tb3w i got the slim, I like that it’s flush in my pockets that way
For everyone who has a secrid! If your cards fall out if you shake it….take a key and scratch te fabric on both sides in the aluminium case👍🏻
I have been using mine between 1 and 2 years now (the one with button to hold it together). I noticed cards become loose when you shake it violently. I am actually glad I am not the only one, I feared it was a problem of my particular one.
I am very pleased with this one. The RFID protection was a must have since in the Netherlands we have RFID public transport cards and bank cards and I am paranoid. I was already minimalist with cash on my person, so this wallet is perfect. I keep six cards in the holder, two more in one of the extra storage areas together with a stamp card for the coffee bar at work and a business card with all my contact info (in case I loose it and someone honest finds it). I use the other area for coins in case I have to pay cash and it holds a coin for supermarket carts. I do only fold my euro bills once when putting them into the plastic holder. It sticks out when opened but not when the wallet is in closed mode so I don't mind and it makes accessing the billa easier.
Is it ok for holding coins?
Dank je wel.
Just got the vintage chocolate, can't wait untill the leather ages, yours looks awesome
Awesome. Let me know how you like the wallet ;-)
I have 2 favorite wallets. When I lived in the states, it was the micro slim fold. Great wallet but the micro is really only good for US bills. Now I'm back in the U.K., I'm using the Trove wallet. I need to carry 10 cards and Trove is one of the few minimal wallets that can comfortably handle 10 cards plus cash.
+Christopher Tilley thanks for the comment, Christopher. Us bills are so much easier to handle due to it's size. But I unfortunately handed out the wrong bill a couple of times because they are all the same size and color
bellroy slim sleeve is still one of my favourite wallet
The quality is suprisingly good on this wallet i love my secrid wallet
Its a safe wallet i would say
Have it for 2 years now. Love it.
+Sandy Putranto cool. 👍😉
Question? When you throw out cards with that mechanism, is it possible to pay the bill with card without pulling them out? So with just leaning card which is in wallet to card device??
The Secrid looks awesome beautiful patina...have the same, it's perfect and save. Bought today second one....thanks for the review!
+Michaël thanks for watching my video and commenting. Just out of curiosity, why did you buy a second one?
Bo Ismono
Hi Bo,
Thanks for your message!
The older one is still in great condition, but i saw the natural recycled leather version and thought i give myself a litte present lol. The leather of the natural secrid looks thicker, feels solid, great wallet!
+Michaël that is a very good reason to buy another one 😉
Hi, i have it for 2.5 years now and it is still great, last card would fall out if you shacke it but all other is great.
I am a bit paranoid of things falling out. The bellroy card pocket has worked great for me for about three years. Though, it may suffer from lack of organization or quick access; I haven't had a problem so far.
+tyler belcher I was paranoid about that too at first. But as you can see in the video you need to shake it pretty violently before a card falls out
+Jeff Povey Bellroy makes some pretty cool stuff
Hi guys :) sorry to barge in but maybe check out the bellroy slim sleeve? That's been on my wishlist for quite a while
Reyhan Pradantyo i had the slim sleeve for over two years until i lost it. Its a great wallet and i put it through alot and it never failed me once, all day on a dirty construction site and it always held up. You wont be sorry. Sad i lost it.
Great Video! I haven't found any caveat on this wallet after a year of use. I want to remark something, it's not a caveat for me, but may it is for others. Mine is in dark grey colour, and is very easy to get marks on the outside leather if it's on the pocket with your keys or similar stuff
+Iván Rodríguez thanks, Ivan. That is good to know. Cheers
I have the secrid for three years. I love it! It has never failed on me. Perfect edc wallet for me. Altough i have been interested in the new all aluminium secrid wich holds some coins. But i'll have to admit, it's a want, not a must. This wallet will live on for many more years!
+Kim Bee I haven't seen the all aluminium one.must be quite loud with the coins inside.
STILL our
favorite wallet
If secrid can just add an external battery to charge your phone I’m all set. Do you guys know any? secrids card mechanism+external battery?
Hey man. Your backdrop has always intrigues me..could you maybe do a studio tour? :D
+Nayef Azmi unfortunately I will move in two months and then everything will change 😂 but before I move out I might do a tour video
Yes please do :D
How many cash can you put it in the money tab?
Should i go with the slim or the mini if im a cash guy.
I have had the slim wallet for years and it has been perfect. It fits 6 extra cards in the leather parts vs 4 for the mini wallet (with the button).
How have you taken care of it? What conditioner have you used ?
The Secrid is the best wallet I've ever used. Have had mine for the past year and no issues. Also gets plenty of attention from others asking about it.
Agreed ;-)
I've owned the wallet for 5 years and reviewed it on my channel.
Yeah it is the best! So practical and cool!
;-)
I just bought the secrid wallet. But mine somwtimes makes a scraping sound. The Cards dont fully pop up, and leaves a mark on my Cards? Have Anyone experienced the same, and if, what did you do?
Pelle Høgsberg you could reach out to Secrid since every customer has guarantee.
I bought my Secrid wallet on a long haul flight with KLM and now after 1year i can honestly say that i find the wallet practical and durable, other than that no issues with wear or mechanism.
+David Posner that is awesome. I'm glad that you are happy with your purchase.
+David Posner that is awesome. I'm glad that you are happy with your purchase.
Would you be able to look at the Mono Creators - Flyby? Been looking at it but would like to know your opinion of it.
+Karl Clarke I haven't heard of that bag before. I just googled it. Looks pretty intriguing. I djayed in he past, would have loved this bag. I will see if I can review one
l like this aspect ratio. It fits my s8 18.5:9 aspect ratio very well. All of CZcams needs to go cinema aspect like you.
+Dynamic Duo Haha. Thanks, mate. I need to get a new phone 😂
Bo Ismono I lease all my phone I pay half of full price and get a new phone every year
+Dynamic Duo yeah, that's what I do as well. But I gotta wait until November
Dynamic Duo *sponsored by Samsung*
+Heckies I wish LG would sponsor me 😂 or Sony or Nike or Yamaha 😂 there are lots of companies I wish that would sponsor me.
I was thinking of a buying a slim wallet and Secrid seems to be the best bet. I would like to know however, what you would recommend between the Secrid Slim and the Secrid Mini. I am asking this as I think the Slim wallet might loosen near the folding over a period of time, something that will not be the case with the Mini, as the button will always hold things in place. Your thoughts?
Hey Neeraj. I think it's just a choice of personal preference. My brother has the mini, I have the slim. I prefer it, because I feel the button "slows me down" 😂
How many metal cards like the Amex gold or chase reserve fit in the card holder?? Or do they fall out
Do you mean the side card holder or the main card holder? cards with raised numbers and letters (e.g. credit cards) basically count as two cards. In my main card holder i have four regular cards and one credit card without any of the cards just falling out
Oh? I would have thought having a hard-case wallet in your back pocket would make sitting uncomfortable... Anyway, what I don't like about these card compartments in modern slim wallets is they seem too small to fit sleeved cards (like my ID, which I keep protected in a clear plastic sleeve to prevent it from wearing out due to being frequently passed around) and laminated cards (like my library card). I don't know if you ever tried keeping such cards in your Secrid. And don't get me started on the coin issues!
It's not that uncomfortable in my backpocket. But if you wear skinnyjeans it might be uncomfortable in the backpocket.
Yes, the main compartment is just for "regular" plastic cards. But I have a couple of laminated cards as well. I store them in the leather part.
Is ok to carry in back pocket while sitting ?
Bo can you review the Heimplanet Monolith Rucksack??
+anthony trabasas I already did, mate. Check my videos 😉
Have you seen the mani wonders cascade wallet? Or the craft wallet? They have very similar mechanisms to hold and get out cards.
I have seen them online, but I currently don't want to review wallets anymore, because there just isn't much that I can say about them unfortunately.
+Sergio Hernández I have seen it. But I currently want to pause reviewing wallets. There just isn't a lot that I can say about them unfortunately. Hope that is understandable
I own the Mani wonders wallet, and it's honestly just too bulky. The mechanisims are the same, how ever, the Mani wonders has a metal cover you need to open before you can slide the cards out in the Cascade fashion. I've also worn holes in my front pockets as the Mani wonders wallet is made out of pure metal, it eventually rubs a hole in the jeans. I would right recommend the secrid wallet over the Mani wonders wallet for sure.
Bo, great review. I've been watching your reviews for some time now. Good job!
Thanks for the info about the Mani wonders. I was actually assuming that the cover might be "too complicated" in practice
I have my secrid mini wallet for 5 years now and still perfectly fine.
How about thr glue part? Still doing well?
@@MisterMonstera yes still intact. Just some scratches on the leather and darken its color.
What website do y’all use to buy it?
Hey Bo! Nice review you got here. I got a question though about the money plastic tab, how is it holding up after several months of use?
+PlanetJakesss hey.
It is still holding on strong. Can't complain
Bo Ismono Glad to hear that, I must confess I purchased an Andar pilot 2 days ago and its on it’s way now right? But when I saw your review it made think I should have gotten the Secrid instead because of the extra card slots and bill holder.
+PlanetJakesss well, the andar is pretty good too. But if you need to store a couple of bills then the Secrid might be the better choice
Bo Ismono thanks for the advise. I’ll just sell it then order a Secrid.
+PlanetJakesss it is just my personal preference of course. Maybe test the andar first. But let me know if you have any more questions 😉 ✌️
what is the exact color of the wallet in your video? It looks different from the vintage leather you linked to
I have the vintage brown. Amazon sometimes just changes the color of the link. Sorry about that
Hey Bo great review! The wallet looks very enticing and I want to get one. But the problem is I just moved to Germany and I use the bus a lot where do you usually put the coins? In your pocket most likely but does that irritate you?
+Slowly Winning thank you very much. I ride a lot with a bus or train. Most of the time I use the app for tickets. But if I have coins I just put them in my front pocket with my keys. As soon as I am home all the coins are thrown into a giant piggy bank. That's my way to save up some money 😊
Thats awesome!!! Okay Im interested! is this site trustworthy to get it from? www.butiq.de/de/marken/secrid/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw1JbPBRCrARIsAOKj2PlM0cXemKazhwBgRbkjo4jd026ll6Q9lnmsQa-QjD0FQEF-Jd4x9qUaAulaEALw_wcB&p=1
+Slowly Winning not sure. But I have put an affiliate Amazon link in this video. With Amazon you should be pretty safe
Bo Ismono cool thanks man!
+Slowly Winning you're very welcome 😉 ✌️
Hey, what happens if you drop the Secrid? Will all the cards come out?
Hey Justin, that really depends on the fall. I dropped it a couple of times and the cards stayed in place
Hey Bo, do you ever have a problem with the wallet opening up since there is no button?
No, I haven't had any problems. My brother has the one with the button. I feel the button is redundant, but that's just personal preference.
I bought this! I really like the mechanisn. I kind of regret not getting the one with the clasp/button though. The leather feels kind of loose and not a perfect fit for the RFID holder. Or could this just be mine?
+mikes41720 can you elaborate what you mean by loose? My brother has the one with the button. I personally prefer it without the button as it is quicker and less fiddly to open with one hand
Bo Ismono the leather doesn't feel like a perfect fit when it's closed. I placed the appropriate amount of cash and cards. I'm wondering if the leather will mold over time. I hope that's it.
+mikes41720 if you send me a DM on instagram I can show you some pics of my Secrid. And then you can compare it to your version
Bo Ismono sent you a DM on instagram!
Is it problematic when you only store 1-3 cards in the aluminum compartment?
+Gerald Ignacio a little bit. The cards are deployed the best when more cards are inside as they stabilize each other. Furthermore less pocket lint gets into that compartment
I’m looking to buy this wallet. My question is how many cards with embossed lettering do you think it can hold without sacrificing it’s function? Seems like most credit cards here in the US have embossed lettering
+Mark Jongko hey Mark.
Good question. I currently have only one card with raised letters in it. It basically counts as two cards. So overall I have five cards in the maincompartment. As long as you don't stack the raised letters against each other, I would assume that in theory you can get four cards with raised letters comfortably into the maincompartment. But that's just my assumption because I don't have that many cards with raised letters to test it out unfortunately
Exactly four with raised lettering. If it ever gets stuck. The lever has a salamander mechanism where it would split into two to just push 2 cards out. Then adjust accordingly. I live in the US and had the wallet for less than a month and am doing a trial and error, so far, best wallet hands down.
random question, did you add leather lotion to the wallet, or is that just how it aged?
Yeah, from time to time I use some leather care on the wallet.
like the design and look but handling bank notes would be a problem?
+toomuchbeard depends on the amount of banknotes. I usually don't carry that much cash. And you need to fold the bills once.
Mine is still working like a charm!
+Damian Hamzah that's awesome
You shoould also check frenchie co speed wallet, it's similar to secrid and ekster, but a bit thinner and smaller.
+Fanenand F good to know. But after the next two upcoming wallet reviews, I will pause doing wallet reviews. There is not much to say about wallets to be quite honest 😂
Should I buy the slim or the mini?
Have you tested the miniwallet? I don't know which one I should get. Really like the sleek look of the slimwallet, but it would be benefit to have somekind of "lock", like miniwallet has. Does the slimwallet feel "slippery" at all while using the mechanism?
My brother has the one with the button lock. It's good as well, but I prefer the SLimwallet without the button. It's just faster and more convenient. Since the wallet is so small it doesn't feel slippery, and I have small hands.
Got this slimwallet couple weeks ago. Have to say the mechanism is very addicting! Overall wallet is very functional. Best part was the price. I got it literally for only 6e due to tiny ink mark in the corner of the wallet.
nnikkem so do you feel you made the right choice by going for the slim instead of the mini version?
I don't fold my cash. I always thought the idea was to place one end in the plastic clip so that when you open it you can see your notes.
Whatever you prefer
The adhesive holding the plastic on the metal seems subpar but I like it still
did you see the new northface access pack? It looks like they literally watched your video and fixed every complaint you had in your original review. Hopefully you get to review it because I can't wait to see what you think of the fixes. I just saw it in store today and I am picking one up this weekend.
+ahastar1141 there is a new version? I haven't seen it. Thanks for the heads-up
Bo Ismono here's the link www.thenorthface.com/shop/equipment-backpacks-mens-backpacks/access-28l-nf0a2zep?variationId=JK3
It comes in a 22L size too. But it is a new bag. Has a much flatter profile ( less like a turtle shell) they have redistributed the space in the bag to make it more useful. The large pocket has a lock on it. And the big thing that I know you will like: the opening mechanism is now made of metal and no longer plastic. You gotta check it out. It's like they check off all the negatives of the previous bag
+ahastar1141 interesting. Thanks for the link. Would be cool to check it out
Im used to rocking a Exentri wallet (done it for the last 5 years) but got a secrid for christmast so trying see how thats working out.
Looking forward to hear how you like the Secrid
how has it been working out for you? Currently I also have an Exentri and looking for a secrid
@@ItsBlitzy I went back to the exentri a while back, and stuck to that until i got the exentri multiwallet as a gift, been using that for around 2 years now, really hard going from something Im used to I noticed.
you dont need to fold the bills, its even better cause you can take them without completely opening the wallet
what color is the wallet featured in this video? like what option did you get I mean?
It's the vintage brown
@@Youknowthebo Thanks Bo!
Bro if i put in the front pocket, will the pull lever be effected?
What do you mean by "effected"? I wear it in my back pocket and the lever is fine. So I assume the lever won't be hurt by keeping the wallet in your front pocket. Or are you referring to something differently?
Love my secrid. Did you know if you flip a raised letter card facing another, you can fit 2 in? Allowing for 6 total.
+Kent Glisson that's true but the space of the letters would still count for a card. 😉 or at least to comfortably get them out. Fortunately I only have one card with raised letters
Actually they both fill the same void. No issues for me getting the cards out. Just a tip for those like me who may have more than one of those.
+Kent Glisson cool. Very good to know. I might try it out. Just need to find a friend who will "lend" me his or her credit card 😂
Lol, good luck with that. Just found your channel. Great stuff!
+Kent Glisson thank you very much 😉 ✌️
I can't get past the plastic cash sleeve...my bills get folded once and only once. That's why I went with the andar pilot. While I don't love having my cash exposed, it's good until I find another wallet with that mechanism and a good cash slot. I might try a money clip and just use these types of wallets for cards.
Elias Bardis where is the ander pilot available in Europe
What colour is your wallet! Vintage Brown or Chocolate? Great review!
It's vintage brown, the vintage leather from Secrid ages beautifull! Mine 7 years old now...
2 years and counting! :)
+Ameer Bonafe awesome
I love your wallet color, is that vintage brown or chocolate ?
It's vintage brown ;-)
what do you do with your change man? separate coin purse or just in the pocket?
+Shanik D I just drop it in my front pocket until I am home. And at home I have a giant water bottle. A giant piggy bank if you will.
I prefer not to use cash and pay electronically as much as possible :)
I just got mine today
I love this aged leather
Got mine today. Its the first item which is really able to replace my normal wallet.
+Dominic Meyer awesome. Glad that you like it, Dominic
My plastic flap is easily tear .its not last long
you should review the trayvax contour
+Mathew Lolo I have seen the trayvax. But currently I decided to pause wallet reviews. Unfortunately there is not a lot that I can say about wallets to be quite honest.
Is it possible to use it as a left hander?
for a left handed extracting card is the same as a right handed person, just flip the wallet. to open the wallet, instead, you will need one more step to adjust with hands
@@FerdinandoLM thank you for the information
Great wallet, best not to fold the notes at all.
Still the best but i just wished it didn't puncture holes in my back pocket due to the sharp metal edge.
+chimbatete I never had that problem, but my brother has the same problem like you. My butt seems to be shaped differently 😂
Hey Bo, I'm using the exentri wallet, you shoul have a look at it :)
+Kriss Rog thanks for the tip, But after the next two upcoming wallet reviews, I will pause doing wallet reviews. There is not much to say about wallets to be quite honest 😂
Haha very true, most wallets do their job pretty well x)
+Kriss Rog 😉
Hey Bo, until last week I had an Ogon card case (the Stockholm V1). But unfortunately the plastic lock mechanism broke after almost 8 years of daily abuse - which is super impressive.
I was considering getting a new Ogon or maybe a Secrid (as a Dutchman I can't ignore the latter). However, I was flying with your beautiful national airline yesterday and they were selling the I-Clip. 30 euros, so I decided to give it a shot. It's an interesting little thing. Very simple and super light weight. No RFID protection and no fancy shooting mechanism though.
It looks well made, although I'm not sure how durable the construction is. The leather flap may be a weak area - time will tell. Maybe worth a review from your side? It's German :)
Hey mate!
I have seen the I-Clip on facebook a few times. Looks interesting. But I currently have paused reviewing wallets. There just isn't a lot that I can say about them. Hoe that is understandable ;-)
Cheers!
My favourite is Mani Wonders wallet which is not even here
I've had the privilege of owning a secrid for almost a year now and I've had no issues with it so far. It's compact design is perfect for front pockets too.
+Daniel Dela Cruz that's awesome. Thanks for the comment, Daniel
Hows it holding up almost 5 years later?
Same question here. How is the glue part doing?
GOOD JOB.....
+Marty Nelson thanks again, Marty
