Nice wallet for travelling
May 9, 2017
Nice, small wallet.
Pros
  • Easy to carry.

RFID Leather Super Skinny Bifold
May 5, 2017
Love the size of the wallet and the way it fits in my back pocket. My only issue, which is why it did not earn 5 stars, is that the dollar bill compartment is too small. Get rid of the small pocket behind the drivers license holder and widen the bill section. Great wallet for the price.

Merchant Response:Hi JB, Thank you for your feedback! All of the billfold sections should be large enough for dollar bills. Perhaps you received one that was stitched too tightly-- We will have another one sent for you to try. Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Thin wallet
Cons
  • Dollar bill section is too small

Best wallet I've ever had
May 4, 2017
This is easily the best wallet I've ever had. I bought it at the same time as another more heavily marketed, significantly more expensive "slim" wallet. I returned the other one which was very well made but not nearly as slim. The design of this wallet, like many products of genius, seems simple, but really it's just genius. This one is also well made. Perfect wallet.
Pros
  • Design, slimness, quality
Cons
  • None

The Perfect Wallet
December 27, 2016
I have been searching for the perfect "skinny" wallet, and finally found it. The card arrangement is the best, since it precludes cards from falling out when the wallet is closed, but provides easy access to the cards. Because it bends in the "middle" between adjacent rows of cards, it contours nicely to the backside. Even with 4 cards per slot, it remains skinny.
Pros
  • Card arrangement. View window for ID. Nice leather. Holds a lot of cards without getting fat. Bends in the middle, thus contouring to body.
Cons
  • None (not even the price).

Carry 30 Cards Still Comfortable.
December 9, 2016
I carry 30 cards which are a mix of different types of card and is still thinner than a cell phone. If you carry a Fat Wallet like I did you'll think you forgot you wallet; because its so thin. Get one you'll love it.
Pros
  • Very comfortable wallet. Even with 30 cards and cash its super skinny. Never had any cards fall out of it like my fat wallet. It's like not carrying a wallet.
Cons
  • Everytime I show it off to friends they don't want to give it back.

Disappointed
September 17, 2016
I am so disappointed that Big Skinny has decided that our business is not worth their time or effort. I have had a regular nylon Big Skinny wallet for several years and have absolutely loved it. It is now wearing out and I wanted one of the new RFID wallets to replace it. My wife bought the RFID Curve wallet and it was too small. So she offered to return it and get the RFID blocking bifold thinking it would be bigger. Big skinny said to keep the Curve and sent a bifold. It wasn't. I finally determined that the leather RFID Super Skinny was equivalent to my existing super skinny and asked to return both the Curve and the bifold and pay the difference for the leather RFID Super Skinny. Big Skinny said they couldn't do that as it was a warranty issue and they couldn't take back the other wallets. I guess I'll look elsewhere for my new wallet. Really sad as they have a great product, just terrible service.

Merchant Response:Hi Kevin, Thank you for calling this to our attention! We are so sorry for the poor service you have experienced. We will be reaching out to you momentarily. Kindest regards, Big Skinny

Super Wallet For Super Business People
July 24, 2016
My old wallet was at least 1 and a half inch thick with credit cards, photos, various licenses, and business cards and so bulky, especially when I sat down in my small car!!!! Now with my new leather Super Skinny Bifold containing the same items I frequently have to double check to be sure it is still in my hip pocket! Wow - what a change. I just wish I could have enjoyed a plastic insert with photos of my children and grands but understand that item likely not available for my wallet. No sweat tho cause I will make do!! This Super Skinny Bifold is definitely a Super Quality product and at a reasonable price.

Great wallet!
July 1, 2016
I love this wallet. My wife bought me one a while back and I wanted one that has the RFID so I ordered one for me and one for my wife. The are the best wallets We have ever had. I like that I can leave it in my pocked even when I'm driving. My old one would have to be removed before I started and then I would seem to forget to grab it when I got out and would have to go back to get it. I like it so much I show it to a lot of people when I see them with a thick wallet that reminds me of what I used to go through.

A Really THIN Wallet
June 24, 2016
This will be the third Big Skinny wallet I've owned and this one is by far the thinnest. When it's folded, it is a bit on the larger size compared to the other models I've owned, but the fact it's so much more thinner makes up for it. I often times forget I have it in my pocket as it's so thin. The only drawback I found with this wallet is the smaller pocket next to the where your currency is stored. This pocket is too small for a credit card and may only hold a folded up receipt.

Merchant Response:Hi Allen, Thank you for your feedback! We will certainly take your advice into consideration! Have a wonderful day! -Big Skinny
Pros
  • Super thin, RFID protected, holds a lot of cards.
Cons
  • Side pocket next to the currency pocket too small for a credit card. I wish they would simply extend the currency pocket and eliminate this smaller pocket.

Wallet fits flat
June 8, 2016
I prefer a wallet that has the credit cards facing the inside of the wallet and bend with only a small bump in the pocket which this one does. Would prefer to have been able to get your Hipster Bifold ( of which I have two ) in a RFID wallet and ordered this one as an option. Was not happy that it did not conform to the one shown on your web site. Needed to switch do t the new chip in credit cards so for the time being it will do the job
Pros
  • Has RFID blockers in place. Credit card slots face the fold and stays slims so you do not have lump in your pocket. "Sits easy"
Cons
  • Does not conform to the pictures of wallet as shown on web site. Would have preferred to have the Hipster Bifold model with RFID blocker.

Super Skinny RFID Fits Like a Glove
May 22, 2016
Dear Madam or Sir: I was afraid the Super Skinny Leather RFID would be too large; I carry my wallet in the front left pants pocket. Well, it fits fine, even when I am sitting in the car. The wallet is definitely thinner than my prior fabric Big Skinny L shape and it holds just as many cards. Well Done Big Skinny !!! Leonard Feld
Pros
  • Skinny, the leather is nice, many credit cards fit

RFID wallet
May 20, 2016
This product may block rfid but it's design is flawed compared to my original big skinny. Design is a big negative.

Merchant Response:Hi Jim, Thank you for your feedback! The layout should be the same as our non-RFID Blocking Leather Super Skinny. Thad being said we want every customer to be thrilled with their purchase! At your earliest convenience, please contact our customer service team at 1.888.844.6925 or email bigskinny@customerstatus.com and they will be happy to facilitate an exchange for you.

Cons
  • Card ccompartment layout is different and not as efficient.

Awkward at best
May 7, 2016
The bilfold is well made but the foot print and pocket presence is far too large. Accessing the contents of the wallet is at best very awkward. It takes two hands to get at anything - not user friendly.

Merchant Response:Hi Bob, Thank you for your review! Totally understand what you mean--Perhaps you'd like the RFID-Blocking Leather Hipster instead. It's pretty much the same size as the Super Skinny, but the pockets are on top of each other instead of side-by-side. We want every customer to be thrilled with their purchase! At your earliest convenience, please contact our customer service team at 1.888.844.6925 or email bigskinny@customerstatus.com and they will be happy to facilitate an exchange for you. Kindest regards, Big Skinny

Big Skinny Wallet
February 4, 2016
This is my 2nd one. The first lasted several years, and was still in good shape when I bought this one. I decided to replace the old one because of the RFID blocking capability with the newer version. Very thin and comfortable to store in my back pocket.
Pros
  • Folds thin
  • Stores lots of cards

Awesome product
February 2, 2016
Extremely happy; true to its name, it is super-skinny. Incredibly so. I almost was told that I need to be true to the spirit of this product and slim down myself! LOL

Merchant Response:LOL! Love your review Balu! Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Super-skinny; fits well into the pocket.
Cons
  • More sleeves and capacity to hold a few more cards would be a bonus although in its current form, it is awesome.

Too long for most pockets
December 25, 2015
Everything is fine EXCEPT overall length of wallet makes it a bit too big for almost all my back pockets; either sticks up over top of pocket or is too wide to put in pocket "sideways".

Merchant Response:Hi Bernie, Thank you for review! Maybe you'd like to try our wallet that matches a pants pocket inseam The RFID-Blocking Leather Curve Bi-Fold available here: http://www.bigskinny.net/rfid-leather-curve-bifold.html We want every customer to be thrilled with their purchase!

Will not block RFID in any way shape or form
December 25, 2015
I gave it 4 stars because it's a great wallet in leather. We have a RFID reader we use at work and I tried it extensively with the wallet and it failed every time. This in no way shape or form will blocked any RFID however it is a great wallet and a great upgrade. It's not worth the money to pay for the RFID feature because it will not work.

Merchant Response:Hi Falcon5000, Our RFID-blocking wallets and most RFID-blocking wallets are designed to block credit card frequencies not card scanner RFID readers for ID cards etc which are typically very different frequencies. Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Great wallet
Cons
  • Will not in any way shape or form block RFID readers. Test and verify at work we use RFID readers extensively.

Solution to sciatica
December 5, 2015
I had carried the L shaped big skinny for years in my left back pocket and a check book in my right. I had a recurring problem with sciatica in my right leg and thought it was the checkbook, even got a bendable pen to lessen the pressure. I was looking for the RFID protection and decided to go with the super skinny because the L shaped wasn't available with RFID protection. Apparently the problem was the pressure put on my hip from the left pocket because with the super skinny I had relief from the sciatica in the right leg immediately. Absolutely the best wallet I've ever had. Spreads the cards evenly instead of stacking them into a thick pack. I'm amazed at how much this wallet can hold and how comfortable it is to carry.
Pros
  • Thin spreads the contents evenly and very comfortable to carry. Puts no pressure on the sacrum or hip.
Cons
  • Didn't try it years earlier.

Super thin and lightweight
November 26, 2015
I purchased this as a gift for my son. The cards are safer not only from the Rfid blocking but they slide in and out toward the center of the wallet. With cards in it is still thin and my son can carry it safely in his front pocket.

Good Wallet
November 18, 2015
I have had this same wallet for a few years in brown leather, but bought a new one to protect my credit cards. First I love my super skinny wallets, without a doubt the best wallet I have ever owned, no more big bulge in my back pocket and it is very comfortable to carry. I wish that the RFID wallet were available in brown. I am not a big fan of the stretch pocket that was added to the bottom in place of the standard solid card pocket. I can see a tear starting in mine already which means that I may have to go back to my old Brown wallet if the tear continues. Guess I will have to buy an RFID envelope at that point to hold my RFID cards in my old brown wallet.
Pros
  • very slim, fold in the middle for comfort in your back pocket, holds a lot of cards and still maintains a slim profile.
Cons
  • replaced the bottom solid pocket with a stretch fabric pocket that is pretty flimsy and has started to tear in the corner.

great product
November 9, 2015
This bifold RFID wallet exceeded my expectations. Even fully loaded with all the credit cards, cash, paper lists and whatnot, it is still the thinnest wallet in my back pocket I have ever owned. It is well made too and I expect it to last as long as my previous non RFID Big Skinny wallet that show no sign of wear after 4 years of use. The only down side to this new wallet that I can see is that it doesn't have any place for pictures but they do sell a picture insert that would probably work. Great wallet!
Pros
  • Well made.
  • RFID of course, no credit card rfid sleeves to use.
  • Good size and very thin in use.
Cons
  • No picture insert.

As good as the original, but with RFID blocking.
November 2, 2015
I've used the same wallet (minus RFID blocking) for years and just love it. Holds all my regular cards and ID paperwork perfectly. The stitching on the corners was beginning to fray, but not a problem. With the increased need for RFID blocking, I decided to replace my old buddy with the new one. Look forward to many more years of satisfaction.
Pros
  • Stays slim, even with the large number of cards/documents I carry.
  • Very to easy to fip open to display driver's license when needed.

I needed this wallet
October 31, 2015
With sciatic nerve problem my old wallet was causing me physical pain. Except for a couple of items I no longer needed, I have everything that was in my old wallet in this and it is markedly thinner. I was concerned that it might be too tall for dress pants which has always caused problems with the thickness of my previous wallet however the wallet comes to just below the top of the pocket and I do not have to remove anything from the wallet to use it in dress pants.
Pros
  • nicely spaced pockets, hold an incredible amount of cards, thin enough to use with dress pants.
Cons
  • for me I really need the clear picture insert, which includes some of my more frequently used card as well as pictures

Best Wallet I Have Ever Owned
October 24, 2015
This is the most comfortable wallet I have ever owned. It is almost like not having anything in my back pocket at all.
Pros
  • Very thin and very comfortable.
Cons
  • Seems to need a little more room for length of bills. I keep getting them wadded up as I try and insert them into the wallet.

RFID blocking Big Skinny
October 21, 2015
Not as soft as the regular big skinny. Is that because of the protective option? A little disappointed.

Merchant Response:Hi John, I know, we're sad that it has to be a bit stiffer, but you are indeed correct that it is because of the RFID-blocking material. Thank you for your feedback!
Pros
  • Holds all cards that previous big skinny did.
Cons
  • Not as soft as regular big skinny.

Compared to my previous wallet, this holds the same amount (more) in a much thinner package. Wallet fits perfectly in my front pocket which I prefer when I travel. Durability is good so far; a few weeks and no signs of wear.

Cons
  • None.
