Outstanding Quality & Value!
January 29, 2018
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.

Looks great but has design flaws
February 10, 2019
The wallet looks great and appears to be of good quality.
However, it has 2 design flaws that would not make me buy it again.
1. It is too small. A folded letter (eg. confirmation) will stick out.
2. The elastic band used to keep the wallet closed is anchored inside the passport pouch. This makes it hard to insert the passport as it bumps up against the anchor. I pulled out the anchor in the attached picture so you can get a sense.

I rather like this style passport 'n' more wallet. It's very ... raw. That's not the right word, but it's the word that comes to mind right now.
It hold everything you need, a passport (or two if you shove and/or remove the elastic lump), ID, some money, & business cards.
There isn't any RFID blocking, so if you keep your passport or other items with RFID chips in this, you may want to put them in RFID sleeves. But those are cheap.
The main thing I would change is the elastic that goes around it to keep it closed. It's sewn together in a little lump that is on the inside under the passport area. You don't always catch on it, but you do sometimes. However, I modified mine with a thin cut leather strip to replace it. I tried to cut a ¼" strap in half, didn't quite get half, but ended up using the thinner half. Now it feels great. The photos show 2 different styles of using it.
I hope they come up with a better idea than the lump, but if not, the leather idea is easy to do.
I'd buy it again.

Stunning quality. I purchased two 'Leather Passport Holder for Men & Women - Genuines Wallet Case for 1 or 2 Passports' previously and was astonished by the incredible craftsmanship and quality. I recently saw that Genuines also has this longer version and I immediately purchased it. I cannot get over the quality on these products. The leather is soft yet thick and durable. The stitching is superb. The edges are fantastic. The price is bizarre because they could charge 4-5 times this amount and it would still be a bargain. This is Saddleback leather quality at fair and reasonable price. I will be purchasing any and all Genuines leather products!
Highly recommend, you will NOT be disappointed.

I've never used a travel wallet and usually carry my money clip when I travel internationally, but for my upcoming trip to Italy I decided to buy one of these travel wallets. I have to say I am so impressed with the quality of this wallet given the good price. The wallet has more than enough room for my passport and travel documents and a good amount of credit cards. The leather is surprisingly supple and actually beautiful. I'm so glad I decided to give a travel wallet a try and glad that I choose this seller and wallet. Can't wait to take out my US$ and put some Euros in this wallet! You won't be disappointed if you buy this wallet.

Soft, full grain leather with stylish stitching around the edges; elastic banding gives an old world appearance and very practical. Sufficient size for cash, boarding passes, credit cards, and passport. Very reasonably priced for the qualify. Second purchase from this seller after similar satisfaction with the smaller passport holder. Definitely recommended.

First of all, super fast shipping and great packaging. Great quality of a product. At the beginning I bought it only for traveling, but you can use it as a wallet on a regular basis. You can store up to 15-20 cards, cash and all sorts of documents. Everything in one place, which is perfect for me. It's made from genuine leather of an amazing quality with it's natural smell, the stitching seems to be strong and I like that strap secures my travel documents from folding out, can't wait to use it on my next trip. Highly recommend!

This is a delightful piece. It is a proper, simple, streamlined travel wallet, perfect for your passport, boarding pass, and a couple other travel documents. It is not a bulky purse wallet or men's carryall with spaces for cards and pens and a phone and cash and the like. Better yet, it is all leather, with that delightful leather smell and feel and a lush dark brown color.
Now that I've got this I feel like a proper world traveler, ready for a life of classic, luxurious trips to the far corners of the world. Or at least I'll have a really nice travel wallet in my bag during my next layover on a business trip.

Just what I was looking for - somewhere to put all my travel documents, cash and cards when I travel! The quality seems excellent as was the price. Also, you can fit more than one passport inside. Definitely 2, but a 3rd would fit it’s just a bit bulkier. We received this item on time - delivered when promised.

Excellent utility and design - but lacking any lining, so the credit card slots are for looks, ONLY. Any actual card would slide out and be lost immediately. Decent quality leather and stitching, but needs a lining to be truly useful. Still, it will keep passport, I/d and boarding pass/ticket in one convenient place during airport transit, when I have to produce those documents a dozen times or more. Good luck, Andrew.

This is a replacement for a zippered passport holder that was falling apart. I didn't expect a lot for the price, but was pleasantly surprised. The leather is good quality, the stitching seems very sturdy, and it looks fantastic. Passport and card slots are logical and well-sized, and the document side holds all of my paper tickets & receipts. Highly recommended.
