The perfect wallet
March 17, 2019
I LOVE my new Trixie Tri-fold wallet. I've been using Big Skinny wallets since 2012 and I couldn't be happier. The bright red color is my favourite as it's easy to locate in a dark bag.
Pros
  • Slim
  • Can hold many cards
  • Stylish
Cons
  • none

Best wallet I ever purchased
November 25, 2018
It's slim but holds every thing I need. Best of all, it's very light and compact in my purse. I will order more in the future.

I love the wallet.. however, I ordered purple and it came in 2 shades of purple, a different shade for the outside and another shade for the inside. In the discription of the wallet it did not say two shades of purple. Just beware of your color choice if buying.

leather trixie tri-fold wallet
May 16, 2018
I have been using your products for years end have always been satisfied. There was a problem with this ;purchase and your staff resolved it immediately, sending another wallet. I very much appreciate the swiftness of this resolution.
Pros
  • Contains all necessary pockets and is light and attractive.
Cons
  • Credit card holders are too deep and it is sometimes difficult to access them.

Nice but
May 14, 2018
This leather because of weight restrictions is not as robust as other leathers, so it does look a bit chintzy. Akso coin compartment is very small and hard to get your fingers in. I have been using it but should have just sent it back. That being said, this is the only order I have been unhappy with from Big Skinny, and I am a long time client.

Merchant Response:Thank you for your feedback Linda! Be assured our leather is top grain & very durable, but we totally understand if you personally don't like the look. We'll see if we can change it or maybe find a different way of applying the leather paint. Thank you again, BigSkinny
Pros
  • Small
  • This is the only order I have been unsatisfied with from Big Skinny!
Cons
  • Coin compartment hard to use
  • Leather looks cheap
  • Card compartments also tight too get cards out of easily.

Not for me
May 14, 2018
I have used and loved your fabric wallets for years and bought them for friends and family .This leather wallet seems much heavier and stiffer. I am returning it because I am not happy with it.

Merchant Response:Thank you for your feedback Laura! The stiffness wears off after initial use - kind of like breaking in new shoes :) but totally understand- Have a great day! xoxo BigSkinny

I have the Trixie tri-fold in the Nylon version also. After loving that one in black, I decided on a nice neutral Gray color and upgrade to the leather. I also have the “envelope “ looking wallet also. I even bought my fianc? a wallet. These wallets are sturdy, well made items. They hold so much stuff without taking up space in your bag. It’s like having a portable filing cabinet without the bulk. The colors are fun and every style is so functional for every personal need. I love my Big Skinny’s!
Pros
  • More stuff to hold, less bulk

I really like this leather wallet. It is much slimmer than any tri-fold wallet I have ever had, and holds everything that is necessary every day or important and keeps them in good order. I have a second wallet like this that I use for cards I use less frequently, such as reward cards from Safeway, Harris Teeter, Hallmark, the library, office depot etc. Thus, I am not "overloading" my necessary wallet and sometimes it is all I leave home with.
Pros
  • There is enough space to fit credit and debit cards, as well as medical cards, car insurance card, roadside assistance cards etc.
By Sweet T.

No more bulk!

Is so light, holds a lot, takes up minimal space
Pros

  • Color
  • Lightweight
Cons
  • Needs a stronger, larger magnetic closure

Smaller alternative to the Long Slimvelope
July 27, 2017
If you are looking for a small version of the slimvelope then this is probably for you. Bought mine in Black, love how classy it looks. It is perfect for moms like me who wants to have everything in the wallet but doesn't want a big,long one.
Pros
  • Classy look, slightly thicker than the nylon variant but still thinner than most trifolds from other brands.
By FRED

love it
June 18, 2017
I've been searching for one of these for several years. EXACTLY what I wanted. YES, it is a little wider than all my others but STILL fits in my back pocket without any problems. AMPLE space for all my cards and cash..
Pros
  • folds easily, lots of pockets, Particularly like the outside zipper pocket !
Cons
  • so far NONE

Magnetic clasp doesn't hold
May 10, 2017
For a $30 wallet, I expected better quality clasp. Also, colors offered are bland.

Merchant Response:Hi Sally, Thank you for letting us know- Sounds like you got a dud. We will send out a replacement to you immediately! Have a wonderful weekend! Kind regards, Big Skinny

May 7, 2017
Item is larger than I expected, but I'm adjusting to it. (it's more of a large square, than the standard tri-fold size). Leather is soft, feels like it will hold up well, lots of pockets.
Pros
  • Leather is soft
  • Feels like it will hold up well for several years
  • Lots of pockets
Cons
  • Slightly awkward size, but adaptable
  • Purple color of leather is more of a berry, where the inside is purple - again, adaptable
By Ellen

And leather too.
May 5, 2017
Can't be beat. Attractive, skinny, really. Holds all my stuff perfectly.Even with lots of change it stays quit flat.

Merchant Response:Hi Ellen! Thank you for your feedback! We are working on incorporating a stronger magnet for the new batches. Kind regards, Big Skinny
Cons
  • Snap button could be stronger.

Have wallet, will travel
May 5, 2017
I am very pleased with this wallet so far. It is large enough to carry a variety of cards plus little pockets here and there to tuck in extras. I love having two slots for bills and that they are plenty large enough for over-sized checks, receipts and so forth. It also has a magnet in the clasp so I don't have to fumble with it. (It gets it in the right vicinity, then I slip it together till it clicks.) Bottom line: It's a keeper. =)

Women stand aside!
September 10, 2016
This is no women's wallet! I bought this two years ago at my annual county fair to replace the fabric tri-fold I used to own. The men's wallets on display didn't even come close to this one. Everything I had in my previous wallet fit perfectly into this one with room to spare. Best Tri-fold wallet I have ever owned. Holds all my crap and still in perfect condition. No rips, cuts, rubs, fading or WARE HOLES. Big Skinny is the Shisnit! About to buy me another one as a spare but don't know why, this one is still going strong! Guess I just godda spend the money. All kidding aside, the Black Leather Trixie Tri-fold is an extremely well made wallet and well worth every penny. Only Change the Name to "Black Leather "Paul Bunyan" Tri-Fold Wallet", Because after all........Its a Man's Wallet.

Love it!
July 23, 2016
Exactly what I wanted.

Merchant Response:Hi April, Thank you for calling this to our attention! Each Big Skinny comes with a 1Year warranty for materials & workmanship. So we'll go ahead and ship the nylon version to you straight away! Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • It is skinny!!!
Cons
  • When I buy another one, I wouldn't buy the leather again, only because after a couple of weeks now the edges are starting to turn white & the "pleather" is wearing off.

Great wallet!
July 11, 2016
Just started using it. It's an upgrade on material (had the same model made of fabric and it had begun to stain and show signs of wear after 1 year). So far so good. It's a tiny bit heavier.

It's just okay
July 6, 2016
I don't feel that the wallet is all that light or skinny once my stuff is in it and it looks kind of cheap. It's okay and I am keeping it, but I will not recommend it to anyone or buy another.

We think you may prefer our Executive Wallet http://www.bigskinny.net/executive-zippered-pocket.html or our Slimvelope Wallet http://www.bigskinny.net/slimvelope.html. They are slightly longer compared to the Trixie Wallet, but they are super flat & slim. We want every customer to be thrilled with their purchase!

Perfect Size
June 28, 2016
I needed to downsize my wallet. This big skinny wallet is the perfect size for my smaller purse. It has enough pockets to hold my needed cards and an ID window - many smaller wallets do not have these features. And I love the purple color! 😊

My Wallet Woes Are Gone!
February 16, 2016
At first sight I was amazed at how skinny this wallet is. And once I filled it and compared it to my overpriced brand name bulky wallet I was replacing, I was surprised to see that my new filled Big Skinny wallet was still significantly slimmer than its now empty predecessor. I am so pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend Big Skinny to everyone.
Pros
  • Has a pocket to store change.
  • Comes with a handy card on which you can write down phone numbers, thus eliminating the need to carry those pesky business cards.

Love the red - easy to find in my handbags
February 6, 2016
I absolutely love the RED leather trixie. It holds a ton of cards, two areas for bills and love the exterior coin holder. My current one has lasted nearly five years, time for a new one. Waiting for the red to be back in stock..ordering two this time...
Pros
  • holds everything and so easy to find.
By Kelly

Love it !
February 3, 2016
I am very pleased with this purchase. I bought it specifically to fit ALL of my stuff in and weigh a whole lot less than my other wallets. Before, I had pretty Kate Spade wallets that matched my purses, but they were either super heavy or if I used a small one, they couldn't fit everything. It's hard to believe that I have all of my various credit cards, ID's, place for US Dollars and Euros for when I travel for work, and this thing hardly weighs anything. And it still looks nice and professional. Highly recommend it !
Pros
  • Professional looking, fits everything, extremely lightweight as advertised
Cons
  • Can't think of any

Leather Trixie
December 28, 2015
I have purchased three non-leather Trixie wallets previously and they are very slippery in my arthritic hands, so I thought the leather would work better. The wallet itself and the color (grey) are fine. But the overwhelming smell is almost too much. I aired it out for a week before putting it into use and used it for two weeks before the smell, even when in my closed purse, got to be too much. it is airing out again in hopes the smell will mellow out a lot more. I do not mind a leather smell at all, but this is a bit much. I look forward to being able to use it in the near future.

Merchant Response:Hi Linda, Thank you for your review! Our customers have found wrapping the wallet in newspaper helps the odor dissipate quickly. Hope this helps- Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Good design; great color; great size when full.
Cons
  • Overwhelming smell in the leather version.
By Cheryl

December 16, 2015
Nicely detailed, still super slim with 10 cards, several bills & receipts and a dozen coins. So much easier to get in and out of my purse that my old longer wallet :)
Pros
  • High quality
Cons
  • Should have bought it in a more visually striking color to make finding it in my purse easier.

I've been using this brand for over 5 years, this is my favorite wallet. I do wish for more color options though. These wallets truly hold an excess of cards and things very well. I adore the grabby texture in all the right places inside that keep everything in place. These wallets last and last. This is a must get !

LOVE this.... but
November 30, 2015
I really love this wallet--all the pockets and the ability to fit 32+ credit cards without the bulk--something no other wallet has been able to do. I just wish there were more fun colors like blue or green or pink. I'm so tired of my black one (hard to find in my purse), but I hate red and the gray one looks cheap.... PLEASE make this same leather trifold in more colors!!!!!!
Cons
  • Not enough fun colors!
By Yvonne

So good, I bought a 2nd, then a third
November 18, 2015
I bought one for myself a couple of years ago and even with daily use, it still looks brand new. It is very well designed. i am still amazed at how much fits in without being bulky. My mother was looking for a wallet, so I sent her one in nylon, and she loves it also. And most recently my boyfriend was complaining about his wallet, so I bought him a leather one. It is a great unisex wallet.
Pros
  • Great construction
  • Smart design

Leather trixie wallet
November 15, 2015
I had a trixie tri-fold wallet for several years and loved it. At the time there wasn't a leather one available. I love the new one! It's stylish and has the same functionality as my other one. I had had so many wallets over the years and was never really happy with any of them. In order to hold all of my cards and money they were heavy and bulky. The big skinny is remarkable! It holds the same contents with a quarter of the weight and is really skinny. I actually have to check to see if I'm carrying my wallet in my pocketbook because it adds practically no weight. I will never get another type of wallet again. Once you go big skinny you'll never go back!

Merchant Response:Hi Linda! Thank you for the great review!

Leather Trixie Tri-fold Wallet
September 1, 2015
Great wallet! Thin and stylish.
Pros
  • Fits everything I need to put in a wallet and remains thin!
Cons
  • Strong smell of whatever is used to treat the leather. I'm assuming it will go away eventually.

It Is Skinny
July 22, 2015
My old nylon/velcro wallet was getting to fat, and it became hard to sit down with it in my back pocket. The Big Skinny (by design) organized my credit and ID cards (and other wallet stuff) in a fashion that my kept the wallet thin, while still safely, neatly, and efficiently storing all of my "stuff."

Merchant Response:Hi Seinajokiben, Thank you so much for your review! As far as cards maybe bending while sitting on it, we recommend carrying your wallet in your front pocket as it is better for your back. Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Thin, well laid-out, efficient, light weight, well-made, and comfortable!
Cons
  • Credit cards (since they're not stacked on each other (and reinforcing each other)) tend to bend while in my wallet, and in my pocket (I assume while I'm sitting). I need more time to evaluate how durable this wallet is, but right now I have NO intention of returning to a "fat" wallet.

LOVE my Trixie!
April 1, 2015
I bought the Leather Trixie Tri-fold in black and it's an awesome wallet. I'm able to keep all my necessary ID's, credit cards, money etc without having a bulky wallet. I probably have over 25 cards, etc in my wallet and everything is easily accessible. The leather is quite nice and soft to the touch. I'd definitely buy this wallet again if I ever needed to.
Pros
  • Nice leather. Holds plenty of cards. Cards and money don't fall out! Easy to access cards, even when there is a couple in a pocket.
Cons
  • Nothing!

I have this bi-fold in red and love it so much that I bought a black one. It is skinny, very light weight and holds everything I need!
Pros
  • Unless you carry a check book, this will be the only wallet you ever need.
Cons
  • Only black and red were available to choose from when I ordered.

Trixie Red
December 27, 2014
Very pleased with the appearance and the softness. Handles all my cards. Easy to spot in my purse with its color. Took a chance with reading other positive reviews and ordered numerous wallets for gifts. Happy I did. Only disappointment was the slowness of the processing/shipping in a timely manner. So I would recommend ordering more than a month in advance of need.
