Another solid review of a wallet I had no clue existed! Keep up the great work 🤙
Thanks!
Solid review. I have seen another review of this and I appreciate the multiple card configurations that you showed so we could see how it worked at different levels.
Just ordered mine today! Can’t wait to get it in 🙌🏼🔥
Wow. Was about to pull the trigger on this wallet then i saw your RFID test. That sucks. Thanks for showing me that.
Great review :) Informative and fun to watch. The price it too damn high though!
Looks like they are onto something cool with the heat sealed leather, no stitching to fray or come undone. Maybe a follow up video down the road?
Just got my leatherman skeletons,man talk about cool,awesome.
Taurus Camp wallet review?
Thanks hope to see it...keep up the great work! Love your content!
I’ll check it out. Thanks for the rec!
Nice vid. dude. I pulled the trigger on one of these last year. I got it and regret it. I wish I had returned it, but now it just lives in a drawer. I should have knows it was gonna be gimmicky but the Apex backpack was so sweet, I thought this little piece would be equally as great. It just lets me down in all the ways you mentioned. But I learned a few things from it. I prefer the Note Sleeve in every way. Without stitching, the leather just looks cheaply assembled. Never try a wallet with magnets.
Thanks for your feedback. I was also curious of the magnets and the heat bonded leather. Did you feel that the pull tabs are a good idea?
@@joeshmoe4177 I really like the Belroy pull tabs! Some models have it executed better than others, but it's a nice little feature and adds a splash of contrast and color.
Love your reviews, always on point. I don't like this wallet because it seems like it will come apart over time. You can never go wrong with stitching.
I’m very curious at the longevity of heat bonding leather together.
@@ChrispyThings Exactly.
Has a 3 year warranty a guy cut the wallet open and he was amazed at how well it was made a lot of sheets of leather
Great video and review as always! Cool wallet, but for 130 bucks there are much better options out there. Also, don’t like that they advertise it as being RFID protected, but it isn’t. Thanks for all that you do! 👍
I tested the rfid with 3 different cards with the same results. Very strange that they’re claiming it’s protected.
Hi there, what would you recommend for a budget of 85-100 USD?
Not a huge fan of Bellroy. They are too pricey, IMO, for what you get. There are so many great wallet makers (top of the line leather and stitching) out there and I've left the mass produced camp. The magnets and pull tab, while some may like them, are no bueno for me too. Wallets are "to each his own" for sure. Good review.
I never considered this, but you might have sold me on the apex slim sleeve. I'm a 6 card user, with no cash. Would that close fully?
That’s what I carry. It closes with the magnets making contact. Depends on the thickness of your cards though.
Explain the gps card please, never heard of this.
Seems like a nice design and a great idea, kind of a shame that it doesn’t have a magnetic in the center of the edge to keep that nice and tidy looking too.
I wonder if another magnet would inhibit the pop-open mechanism of the wallet.
Does it still hold 8 cards if they got raised letters and numbers on them?
Yep
Thank you for not focusing on your ugly mug and showing us the wallet, lol. I hate it when reviewers focus on their damn faces and not the product.
Am I that ugly? Lol
Would you ever sell it?
no RFID? man..
i've wanted one of their wallets in forever... their pricing is just a tad out of reach for me. The current lust-worthy Bellroy item for me is the A5-notebook folio. But $250 CAD !!!
They’re very pricy. But that A5 looks nice
How about using your phone number for grocery cards/rewards programs rather than carrying the cards in your wallet?
Tops and Tim Hortons reward cards. Not sure if they offer that
I don’t think they do. Those are pretty essential
I was just told by my gf that Tops can just take your phone number , and Tim Hortons has an app that they can scan instead of a card. I may be carrying 2 less cards if this is true
@@ChrispyThings nice! I’ve gone from carrying 8 cards to just 4
6:51 as long as you don't have a $17 emergency you are good to go, 😂!
How can this be called slim? That’s pretty thick. Blogging is actually slim except for the BigSkinny wallets…
Still waiting Apex Note Sleeve 😴
How do you like it? I can’t decide on this or the note
