IS IT BETTER? Bellroy Card Sleeve 1 vs 2 COMPARED

- čas přidán 29. 06. 2024
- It's been several years since Bellroy launched the original Card Sleeve (v1) wallet and we did a review on it. Now we see the 2nd edition (second) which despite looking the same does have some differences that make the v2 a step up.
One nice thing is it comes in 8 different colors like black, hazelnut, ocean and teal. So the design elements and options are on full display.

2:58 That fine line is actually where a hot *edge creaser* was used. This typically happens along leather edges that are 'too fine' to edge burnish or protect with acrylics. Raw edges leave a product vulnerable to damage and its always prudent to finish them some way. As crazy as it may sound, many crafters have forgotten this and use the creaser more for decoration these days than practicality. Personally, mine sits in a tool box gathering dust. My perspective is that if a leather gets split down so fine that edge creasing becomes necessary, the leather has lost most of it's quality (split too finely) and the leather is only suitable as lining.
Have a good one Mark. ☕👍🏼
Great info, thank you!
Leather and thread, 2 materials that's enough for a great wallet. Too many wallets nowadays are into metal, magnet, plastic and zippers!
Would love to see you do a review of the new Bellroy Under Cover wallet
FINALLY been waiting for this
Great wallet and video, as always!
Nice wallet. But I feel this form factor was perfected with Craft and Lore’s Port Wallet.
The craft and lore is a wrap wallet made with one piece of leather and doesn’t have a pull tab. I would say they are pretty different.
Might buy this one.
Been months waiting for this comparison by you…
I really like your Reviews, concise and to the point. I now own the version 2 of this wallet and I am loving it, I would like to know if you could suggest a competitor to this wallet? Would appreciate it!
Looks nice. I think the heavier leather is an improvement. A better improvement would be $35. I want small wallet to carry everyday. It just seems a little slight. Maybe two more cards capacity so when I use cash I have enough room to store the change I get back. 6 cards 4-6 cash please.
Good morning everyone
It's afternoon here in Germany. Hi.
Evening here in Amman jordan
Nice, but in my opinion, for minimal carry nothing can hold a candle to a Ridge Wallet
Those wallets are not comparable to leather wallets I would say. Most people that watch these reviews are into leather.
Wait? It not Friday yet😂
I would never call these “wallets”; more a card holder. Like a holder of library or metro cards, or any none essential cards.
Well, these are not cheap
They never have been. They never will be.
I've just received mine. Sorry to say, it's a disappointment. The leather is rough and scratchy, in fact it doesn't look, feel or smell like leather at all. The carry experience is fine, but it's nowhere near the quality feel of my Slim Sleave. I have Wally card sleave from Distil Union which looks and feels much better and is much more satisfying to use. As ever, Mark, the only thing I can't fault is your thorough review!
Those pull straps look like garbage after a month or two
They definitely aren’t eye candy, that’s for sure.
I’v had mine for 5 years used everyday and it’s still perfect.
