5 Stars Form and Function
I looked at a lot of selections. Some were a bit more fancy as per their construction materials, however this one was maybe less good-looking but superior in features for the price. More “bang for the buck” as they say. Quality materials and construction through out.

4 Stars Sturdy, convenient, and helpful for international travelers
I was going on a 5 week trip to Vienna & Germany, and I needed something to keep all of my travel documents and cards together. That’s when I found this organizer from Victorinox. Given the company’s reputation for hardiness in its products, I’d say that it met expectations. I haven’t had it for long (it arrived before I left), but there have been no defects whatsoever. It also easily accommodated my passport, credit and debit cards, other ID cards, as well as my plane and train tickets. This is especially helpful when traveling through TSA checkpoints in the U.S. My only complaint, and something that I wish I knew beforehand, was that it’s too large to fit into your pocket, so it can’t replace a money belt.

5 Stars An excellent investment.
I carried this around Eastern Europe for four months last year. It’s functional and well-constructed, and the only travel wallet I could find *anywhere* that met all my needs.

A big selling point for me was the large zippered coin pouch. Other travel wallets either have no coin pouch at all, or a little buttoned one that’s useless because it doesn’t prevent change from escaping and sliding around the main compartment. In the Victorinox wallet, the pouch zippers shut, and it’s big enough to hold about two or three times the change you could comfortably carry in your pocket. I ended up using it for other things, too, like luggage locks and my iPod. I like to carry all my foreign currency in one spot, and this wallet let me do that.

It has two passport slots - great for people with dual citizenship - and also 12 card slots, and one transparent mesh slot for ID. A loop running down the inside spine holds a pen. On one wing of the wallet, there’s two pockets for cash or documents, and on the other there’s one pocket that zippers closed. The outside zipper seals the wallet completely.

If you’re looking for something you can slip inside your jacket pocket, this isn’t for you. Fully loaded, it’s about as thick as a paperback thriller, and as long as a magazine. However, if you want to carry *all* your travel documents securely in one place, you can’t do any better. With its thoughtful and comprehensive layout, it’s as compact as it can be - keep in mind that the same design in leather would be *much* bulkier. Personally, I’d rather have the convenience of securing everything in a single wallet than have to keep track of currency and documents I’m carrying in a few different places.

You can get a travel wallet for half the price of this one - but you get what you pay for. This wallet has all the features I want, and it’s sturdy enough that I expect it to survive a few decades, at least. Actually, I might never need to replace it. If you do a lot of traveling, this is an excellent investment, and worth every penny.

5 Stars Great product
Nice product with alot of room but it is a large item so not real sure were I can place it on my computer bag that is out of the way. But again quality is great.

5 Stars Worth every penny
At this date, I’ve owned it for well over a year now and I can say that it’s worth it.

Some other reviews say it’s small or lacks space, that’s half true.

1. Yes, it has 3 slots for cards but on the other side you have a mesh for your ID (also includes an ID holder for that area [which is pretty awesome]) and two pockets for cards you don’t really use daily or other stuff like business cards or even a fishing license. Which both have plenty of room for cards.

2. Currency space, while I haven’t been out of the US in the last year I can’t say anything about other countries but for US currency, it’s perfectly fine space if you put your bills in properly.

Wear and tear so far has been very minimal considering daily use. I thought for sure the zipper was going to be the Achilles’ heel but it’s been working without trouble for me. I do keep it maintained so I’m sure that helped as well.

The zip around keeps everything in place and you don’t have the random card falling out in your pocket sometimes. That really is a nice touch.

It’s also quite light and thin which is a bonus. Makes sitting on it nice or throwing it a different pocket for safe keeping.

3 Stars NOT for the global traveler!
Great wallet in many ways - secure and durable. But the description says it can hold almost all size currencies and is great for the global traveler which is absolutely not the case. As a USA only wallet it gets 5 stars, but for global travel only 1 star.

2 Stars Too small…
Nice wallet…but who are they kidding? The bill compartment is even too small for US dollars. The zipper would cut into the bills every time I wanted to close the wallet.

2 Stars Small, small, small
Wallet is small. Even my currency barely cleared the zipper. And what’s the deal with no change pockets in wallets these days? If you’re looking for an ultra slim wallet to carry just a few things this’ll probably do just fine (and the zipper is a nice touch). But if they’d just add an inch to the height and find room for a velcro or zip change pocket I would be giving this a 5. Instead its heading back in the mail tomorrow.
