Andar Leather Slim Bifold Wallet With RFID Block Made of Full Grain Leather- The Ambassador

First Impressions:Design: Very clean and minimalist. I purchased the small version of this wallet. It folds very thin without creasing the outside folding edge of the wallet. I typically carry a drivers' license, two credit cards, and some cash. With this inside the wallet it folds to roughly 1/2" to 3/4". This wallet is perfectly suited for my needs. NOTE: I wouldn't recommend the small version of this wallet to someone who carries much more than I do. If you use more than 3 credit cards or have a tendency to carry more than 10ish bills in your wallet, I would recommend getting the larger version of this wallet. Anything more than that and you should probably consider a different product altogether. If you carry a lot of photos/business cards/coupons/gift cards/etc. a higher-capacity product will likely suit your needs better. You absolutely shouldn't use this wallet to carry coins under any circumstances. It can hold a few and still fold properly, but putting pressure on the outside of the wallet will damage the beautiful leather. If you don't care how your wallet works this isn't a problem, but this is a very high-quality product and I intend on keeping it looking as good as possible for a long period of time.Construction Quality: Excellent. Stitching throughout is very low profile and thread color matches leather almost perfectly. No loose ends. Mine has a knot that sticks out slightly at the leftmost side of the top credit card slot on the right side of the wallet. Certainly not a problem and it would go completely unnoticed if the rest of the product weren't executed so perfectly. I can't believe a product this affordable has such fantastic build quality.Materials: Best quality I've ever seen on any leather product in this price range. I was skeptical buying a full-grain wallet at this price point and assumed that there would be either bad leather or poor construction, I was pleasantly surprised.Care: I don't want to give anyone the impression that this product is hard to take care of or requires a lot of maintenance. You could likely take this wallet out of the box and never do anything to it and have an excellent wallet for a long time. However, if you want to keep it in excellent condition I would recommend using a leather moisturizer on it periodically, either monthly or bimonthly, maybe even more if you live in a particularly dry area like the american southwest. You should probably also moisturize more often during the winter when the air is dryer. Moisturizing takes a very short period of time, is very easy, and extends the life of your full-grain leather products. You can purchase a dedicated full-grain leather moisturizer if you want, but I just use a small amount of Clark's weather guard (designed for boots). Remember, when moisturizing leather: less is more. You can always add more, but you don't want to use too much and end up with an oily wallet for a few days.Overall: By far the best wallet I have found at this price point. There's really nothing to compare it to. As long as the relatively small capacity isn't a problem this is absolutely the best product on the market at this budget (again, if you carry a little extra get the big version). You would have to spend triple the money before you get a wallet of similar quality, and probably $100 or more to get a product of better quality. As far as price/performance is concerned there absolutely is no better product out there. If I ever lose this I will buy this wallet over and over again.

I realy love the designI have my main cards on the front and less frequent are in the hidden slotsbut it is two stars less from a perfect score for a slim wallet (why two stars you may say, because it is a wallet :)- it can not cover my currency bill (not US dollar)- the leather is not smooth, it is a bit of a struggle to get it out of my poket

I have had it for a over a month and I am very happy with it. It is definitely a little smaller and thinner than regular men's wallets, and I like that (one of the reasons I bought it). I have 2 credit cards and 1 ATM card which fit perfectly, plus a few other thinner cards for insurance, etc. US money fits fine, I do not understand why some people said their money sticks out of the top, I do not have that problem, when I put dollar bills in the wallet there is approximately 1/8 inch clearance to the top of the wallet. The wallet is well made and appears to be excellent quality. It is a little pricier than men's wallets that I have purchased in the past from Kohls or Sears, but often those wallets had stitching that started to come apart after a couple years or less, so hopefully this wallet will last a long time.

Absolutely perfect. I carry 8 cards on a normal day, however I've fit up to 11 when traveling with no issue at all. The money fits inside and does not stick out despite what I've seen in some other reviews. It's the perfect size, the leather is stunning and of great quality. This is the exact wallet that I've been looking for, and recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality, slim, practical wallet.

The leather is fine. I am looking forward to it loosening up after a little use. The stitching is well done, not noticeable, seems like it will last a long time. The color is really nice, natural brown without processing that removes its individuality. The only issue is that it is too minimal, too slim. The top edge of the US bills stick up over the top of the wallet. It accommodates 8 cards nicely.

I had high hopes for this as I have the Andar Leather Money Clip and I really like the look and feel of the leather as well as the functionality. That one is a bit small, because the bills stick out a bit, but it was good enough and I get a lot of compliments. I'm planning a trip to another country and the bills are larger there, so I was hoping that this would be a little larger. No such luck. In fact, even though it's bigger than the money clip, even US bills stick out if you have too many.

I am a woman who doesn't like carrying purses. I am more comfortable carrying a wallet with all my important information in my back pocket, but i never found a wallet that wasn't thick and bulky until now. I love this wallet its compact and very well made and very comfortable. When im sitting down i dont even feel it. I plan to buy another andar wallet to replace my bus pass holder. I would definitely recommend this wallet to anyone. Great product !

I was excited to receive this wallet as it is sleek, stylish and slim. I kept a few cards and a few bills in it, just the necessities knowing that it was made to be used as a minimalist card holder. Unfortunately, the lining on it split open within my first week of owning it. I don't know if I just had an individual faulty wallet or if it has to do with the entire line, but I'm bummed out that I had to return it. I would have happily given this product a rave review if it hadnt torn on me from very light use.
