Once upon a time I had leather, long-fold passport / boarding pass / wallet that cost me an arm and a leg. That thing was a little "too much", because it was so massive and sooo thick that I had trouble fitting it into jacket pockets and it wouldn't bend even the tiniest to conform to the shape of my massive, chiseled, rock hard pectorals*. I lost it in a recent house fire . . . I never realized how inconvenient those shortcomings were, until I found this as a replacement.
The buttery leather is much more beautiful than what one would ever expect for $25, and the stitching is absolutely top notch. When empty, it is rather floppy, but soon becomes a perfect combination of firm and giving when loaded with just a few items - Even with just my passport, and credit cards.
It comes in a nice, fuzzy kind of a felt bag (I'm not a clothologist, so I'm sure someone else has a better description of it in their review), with a little leather label sewn into one side, which reminds me of other leather goods I've purchased that includes a material sample. The bag has a string pull closure, to protect and store the wallet. This is a small, but much appreciated bonus, because I would like it to stay beautiful during those times that I am not flying around the world in my private jet**, seducing beautiful super models***.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was made in Ukraine. I would much rather support an ally, still figuring out how to fit in to their place in the democratic world, than another country whose name is synonymous with shoddy goods and underpaid labor****.
I love this wallet so much, I've ordered one for my mom, and every motor vehicle I own, as a better way to carry license, registration and insurance documents.
You won't be disappointed.
* Semi - massive, chiseled, rock hard pectorals. . . What? . . . Okay, okay! . . . Man boobs.

*** Maybe not super models, but we're all beautiful on the inside.
**** ~cough~ China. . I'm not political, just a genuine appreciation of the fine people of Ukraine, and the pleasant feeling of supporting them. почтение!
