This travel wallet was a great purchase for my family. Nowadays there are so many options available through online sellers, so I am somewhat nit-picky with most purchases and do a lot of research beforehand. Before buying this travel wallet, I compared reviews for several similar items (which you are most likely considering as well), and ultimately settled on this for several reasons. #1 This wallet COMFORABLY holds 4 passports. Sure you could cram additional things into all manner of pockets available, but it definitely holds 4 with perfect passport-size pockets. It even displays the top edge of the passport so you can see everything is in there with a quick glance. It fits nicely and I have had no problems with it feeling too tight. #2 The additional pockets are just right for most practical purposes. A zippered one for money, a folder for miscellaneous use, and some outside pockets for boarding passes. Sure, there are some other items touting 2 dozen various little nooks and crannies called pockets, and while there 7-zippered, meshed, detachable, iterations might dazzle, they seem overkill and often sacrifice functionality for excessive features. BY CONTRAST, this wallet had exactly what I needed and didn't make me feel like a survivalist boy scout or a crazy coupon lady (although it will work for that too). #3 the material seems good in the reviews, and turned out to be durable as promised. #4 the size is just right. Not too big to feel like a trapper keeper but big enough to hold 4 passports and any number of documents! One hand carry works fine, but won't fit in your jeans pocket. It's actually such a practical size, I'm still using it after my arrival and debating ever sitting on a traditional back-pocket wallet again. No more back-pocket bruises on long drives.
The only downside was that the interior seam occasionally interfered with the zipping closure. After a few minutes of finagling after I opened it, I figured out that a little outward pressure while zipping (gentle tug outward) makes it open and close as smooth as silk. So, only the most lazy of zipperers need be concerned. :) Future iterations of this wallet might add additional features or new pockets such as clear-windowed identification pocket, different colors, etc.
Summary: Very happy with it. It was useful for me in my recent move to Korea with my family. And this is NOT a review that I received anything for (as you will certainly see in other products)...that being said, I won't refuse any kickbacks or discounts :) Then I could do another review about their customer service!
P.S. I never do reviews, but felt compelled to in this situation. Great product.
