Today will be a review on the slimmest wallet I have ever owned, and upon receiving this wallet, I asked myself why haven't I invested in one earlier? To those of you who do not know about wallets, perhaps this is a very good upgrade from the regular bulky, torn and tattered wallets that almost every man on this planet is carrying. It not only makes you look disheveled and unattractive, it also reflects on you as a person, being possibly disorganized.
Alright, back to the review. I got this on Amazon.com at a whopping price of 17 USD (who said that good wallets are always expensive?), jaw-dropping, I know. It is tiny and lightweight, but quality is not compromised and construction is well-built.

This wallet is really small, perhaps just the length of my palm, and I'm not kidding when I say that I have a very small palm. It is slightly longer than half the length of my iPhone 6s (not even 6 plus). Exact measurements are 9cm x 5.5cm x 1.3cm (Length x Breadth x Thickness). Thickness depends on the number of cards you place in the wallet, and for mine I placed about 6 cards in it. It is claimed to be able to hold up to 10 cards, but personally I don't like carrying so many cards so I haven't actually tested 10 cards.
This wallet is made from real leather. May be prone to scratches if you're not careful with it but those scratches can be easily removed by buffing the leather just by using your fingers. Of course, regular maintenance of your leather accessories and essentials is the ultimate way to taking care of leather. Aesthetic wise, it has the word Huskk on one side and the logo on the other side of the wallet, both indented into the leather so you don't have to worry about it coming off or fading over time. (See photos below). This wallet comes in a variety of colors and I chose dark brown.
It has an elastic band to make sure that your cards are snugly held in place and not fall out when you're out and about. The elastic band also serves another purpose - as a money holder. Personally I don't like having a separate card holder and money clip, so this wallet does a perfect job of holding both my cards and my notes.
It also has a flap to pull your cards out quickly and easily, giving you quick access to your cards all at one go. The downside, though, is that it does not stagger your cards when it pops up, so you will have to slowly sieve through your cards should you want to retrieve a card in the middle of the pile (again, see photos below). For those of you who prioritize having really quick access to every single card, even those in the middle of the pile, then this wallet probably isn't for you. But to those out there who like quick access, but doesn't really need so much precision, then this wallet is more than capable of fulfilling the needs of yours.
Also, this wallet does not have RFID protection, just something to take note of for those who are particular about it.
Overall, there are many wallets out there in the market. Personally, I was looking for a cheap and small wallet as an alternative wallet when I'm overseas or when I feel like travelling lightweight. This wallet more than fulfilled my criteria and with such good quality and low pricing, I could not have asked for more.
