Perfect combo, thin but holds a lot!
May 4, 2017
I stepped up to the World Bifold with Zipper because I wanted a wallet that was a bit flatter when it was full, plus had a bit more room to hold receipts, etc. The coin pocket has proven to be a real blessing!
Pros
  • Holds a lot of cards, money and paper receipts, yet is very flat, not budging out.

Falling apart after a month
April 13, 2017
I have had the wallet for around a month and it is already falling apart. To get it replaced Big Skinny wants me to pay to ship it back to them.

Merchant Response:Hi J.C., Oh no! That's terrible! You should never have to pay to ship it back for replacement. We must have a new member on our customer satisfaction team. The most that would be asked for are images if you could email them so we can see if the problem affects a whole batch. We have your order details here and will send a replacement out to you immediately! All Big Skinny wallets are covered under a 1Year Warranty for materials & workmanship. Your replacement should arrive before the end of the week. Kind regards, Big Skinny
Cons
  • Falling apart already after only a month.

I have previously owned 2 Skinny executive checkbook bifold wallets and a taxicat Bifold wallet. The taxicat is a little small for my everyday needs so have been using the executive checkbook one. Then I got a smaller purse and wanted a smaller wallet that could hold a lot. At first, after putting all my things into the World Bifold Wallet, It was not closing very well and was quite thick. Thought of returning it, but after using it a few days, it got much flatter and now I love it. The zippered pocket, however, is a bit small for all my coins. They fit in there okay, but difficult to get them out. I now carry a separate coin purse which is fine.

My husband has always complained about how his wallet always hurt his behind when he sits on it but now he hasn't complained since he has been using it. Great gift item I gave him for Father's Day.

3rd version and still loving it
June 24, 2016
I abuse wallets. I put a lot of stuff in my wallet and it holds up well. Every two to 3 years I replace it as I over stuff it and it start to breakdown
Pros
  • Holds different currencies, holds change for parking meters, etc, fits in fron pocket.
Cons
  • For me, none

Compact and light weight
April 9, 2016
I bought this for my wife who prefers smaller, lighter purses but then proceeds to cram all she can into them. Other wallets big enough to carry all the cards she has were difficult to extract from the purses. The Big Skinny is perfect. Very light weight and fits everything the others carried with room to spare.
Pros
  • compact and light weight
Cons
  • none

Worth every penny

Stayed skinny after I filled all the card slots and doubled up in two card slots, cash and receipts too. Blows leather out of the water. Great product, fits easily in my front or back pocket. Highly Recommend this wallet.
Pros
  • Thin,Dark brown color is great.
  • Roomy but stays skinny
  • Durable
Cons
  • None

Not Skinny Anymore
February 7, 2016
I took everything out of my original Big Skinny Wallet. I put them in the new wallet and it is not skinny anymore. It was hard to get in and out of my back pocket. Two days later I took everything out and put all back in my old wallet. I was very disappointed and cannot understand why the original wallet is no longer available. It seems the Big Skinny Company is going backward. From a once very happy Big Skinny customer.

Merchant Response:Hi Don, Oh no! Which Big Skinny style did you have before? Our flattest and skinniest wallets (if you're carrying over 25 plastic cards, cash & receipts) are either are Hipster Bi-Fold or Super Skinny Bi-Fold models---they split the total contents of the wallet into separate stacks which allows the wallet to stay super slim. 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
Pros
  • May still be durable.
Cons
  • No longer the worlds best wallet. Like other wallets now. Is very thick after cards and cash is added.

Not as good as the original version
January 24, 2016
I am not happy with this new version because the zipper for a compartment is on the outside of the wallet. I prefer the old version where the zipper to a compartment was on the inside fold of the wallet. I won't buy this new version again. I will be looking for a different wallet to replace this new model.

Merchant Response:Hi Raymond, Thank you for your feedback. Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • A slim wallet with lots of storage. A large area for currency.
Cons
  • I do not like the zippered compartment on the outside of the wallet. I prefer the old version that had the zipper to a compartment on the inside fold of the wallet.

Son very happy with slim wallet and space for coins
January 5, 2016
I ordered another model before, but that one had not a zippered pocket, so my son, who is a student was not so happy with it. You know in Holland we still use a lot of coins, up to € 2 pieces, that is about $ 2. So for some foreign country's it is still handy to have zippered pockets!
Pros
  • zippered pocket
Cons
  • size is a little bigger than expected

What took me so long!
December 27, 2015
I have been carrying a very fat and heavy old wallet around for so long. Now I have my Big Skinny wallet which holds everything I had in my old wallet. I compared the old wallet after I emptied it to my Big Skinny and it was still a little bigger. My purse is now lighter which is better for my shouder. It takes up so little room. I love this wallet!
Pros
  • Holds many cards, also bills and change. Lighter, smaller.
Cons
  • If there is a con, and this is not really bad--but it is a little to get a card out when I have three in a slot. Not a big deal.

My last wallet?
December 13, 2015
I hope it last a long time. I was worried about the zippered coin area but it really doesn't add to the bulk of the wallet, and I hope I'll go back to Europe some day and use it for euros.
Pros
  • Nice snug fit for cards. It is skinny.
Cons
  • So far no cons.

Best Wallet
November 18, 2015
This is my 2nd Big Skinny World Bifold Wallet. My main reason for purchasing it is that I wanted a different color (navy). My 1st wallet (black) is about 3 years old and shows no discernible wear. They definitely live up to their claims for thinness and durability. Based on my experience, I highly recommend Big Skinny wallets.
Pros
  • Very thin and durable
Cons
  • None

The World bi-fold size is better than expected.
November 6, 2015
This is my second Big Skinny wallet. I have the regular multi-pocket wallet, but wanted another one that was not black and also wanted to try the World style (with coin pouch). It has the same quality construction as my other one but the credit cards seem to hold a little better in this one. I do prefer this taller, square size/shape to my other one. I was not sure how the coin pocket would work out (coins tend to bunch up, add bulk and create indentions in the wallet materials). Especially if the wallet is in the back pocket. It feels ok with the coin section facing out. Not as bad as I thought. I typically don't carry change, but this is great if I had to. Plus the coin pouch can be used for other purposes as well. The zipper is small and does not protrude or cause any discomfort. Very well designed. I will be traveling to Europe next year, so look forward to using the wallet there. I only wish they had the wallets in a few more (sporty) colors.
Pros
  • -Very thin
  • -super lightweight
  • -durable
  • -comfortable in a pocket
Cons
  • not many colors

Nice and thin, but wears out too soon.
November 4, 2015
Every three years I need to buy a new one. They should have a lifetime guarantee!

Merchant Response:Hi LLeonard, Thank you for your feedback! Our latest styles have double-edged stitching so now the Big Skinny is even more durable! Have a great day! Big Skinny

Love the wallet. Only issue is if you have change in the coin section it makes putting bills in that part of the wallet a little tighter

Perfect European travel wallet
September 13, 2015
I bought this to use on a recent trip -- five European countries with many currencies of different sizes, and coins as well. The zippered pocket worked like a champ for this, and kept relatively flat despite being filled. The wallet itself is wider than usual, but still fit easily in my jeans, shorts, khakis, etc. as well my front pocket when pickpocket deterrence was advised. Given the wallet's shape, there is less overlap among the cards I carried, so the net effect was to be slightly thinner overall than the Mini Skinny, my current favorite. Time will tell on durability, but I have every reason to expect the best, given my experience with the Mini Skinny. Highly recommended, for both at home and abroad!
Pros
  • Flatter overall in practice then other wallets, given proportions
  • Zippered pocket for coins is terrific in Euro zone and Europe generally, given 1 & 2 denominations coins. Probably true for Canada as well.
Cons
  • [none so far]

great wallet...
September 3, 2015
my son purchased a wallet from big skinny previously (and likes it) and been looking for something other than leather and thickly made and hold up in back pocket sitting all day will not look deformed. well this bi-fold wallet has performed just fine and the zippered pouch can hold a key if need be. just what i was looking for. its thinner than my old cloth wallet, with money and four credit cards and key and so far very pleased. would recommend.

Exactly what I expected
September 1, 2015
I haven't used this wallet yet. I ordered it for my trip to Europe and I haven't gone yet.
Pros
  • It's perfect for my Euros.
Cons
  • I only carry 2 cards and a license, so the wallet is actually more than I need. I have to work hard to not take advantage of the ability to carry more since it still won't be too fat.

Just What I've Been Looking For
July 25, 2015
Although I have only recently received this item, I have just returned from 2 weeks of travel in Europe using a Big Skinny taxi wallet. For my next trip I wanted something that is a better fit for the larger size of the european bills. It is also very important for me to have a wallet with a zipper pocket for coins, and that is hard to find. I have tried a Pac-Safe bifold wallet, but found it overly bulky. The World Wallet is just what I have been looking for. I like the divider in the bill section as I like to keep the larger bills to the back. There are even pockets behind the card pocket sections that would be handy for receipts or tickets. This wallet is very well made and I know the Big Skinny products are durable.

exactly what I was looking for
July 7, 2015
Not much to say. It's exactly what I wanted: a slim and light wallet. As stated before, my old empty wallet is as thick as this one with every single card and paper transferred to it. I'm super happy and all my friends seem to be interested in one all of a sudden. Love it!
Pros
  • really slim
  • lightweight
  • lots of storage space
Cons
  • can't fit my Portuguese car documentation in the pocket behind the card holders

I wish I had bought this wallet months ago like I planned to but put off. This wallet made a difference that is awesome. My cargo pocket would seem full and bulky with my old wallet, I purchased this world bifold wallet kept all the same cards and I can't get over the difference. Sometimes I have to put my hand on my pocket to make sure I have the wallet with me. LOVE IT! Thanks Big Skinny!
Pros
  • Seems like half the wallet that I had.
  • Love the zipper pocket on the back
Cons
  • None

Compact and Secure
May 27, 2015
I've been using my wallet for the past several weeks, and I love it. The material seems like it will last for quite some time, but most all I like how secure my cards fit in the wallet. I can drop it and the cards don't go flying everywhere, yet they come out easily when I need to use them. And the size of he wallet fits extremely easily in my back pocket, and it doesn't feel like I'm sitting on anything bulky. I had another Big Skinny wallet before this new purchase, and it lasted for many years, so I have every confidence that my World Bifold will endure the test of time.
Pros
  • It's compact size, that holds quite a few cards securely.

They Cancelled my order and took my money
May 23, 2015
This company are spammers!!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!! I placed an order and within 12 hours i got an email saying that my order was cancelled

Merchant Response:Hi Bella, thank you for your notes. Please be assured that your order has not been cancelled. The item is in-stock. And according to our records your order was placed on May 22nd, 2015, only a few days ago, and Monday, May 25th was a federal holiday for the USA (no shipping that day) so it will take just a bit longer to arrive in Australia. We thank you for your patience & understanding. Kind regards, Big Skinny

Very functional, well priced.
May 18, 2015
I was a little skeptical when I received the wallet. My old leather wallet was falling apart and I had tried three other wallets before running across Big Skinny accidentally on the internet. After transferring the contents from my old wallet to the World Bifold wallet, the World Bifold was as thick full as my old wallet was empty. Now I don't feel like I'm sitting on an annoying lump in my back pocket. There's plenty of room for cash, credit cards, driver's license, etc. I use the zippered pocket to keep an extra truck and motorcycle key handy and secure. I also keep some important photos and the wallet holds everything securely. I've read other reviews that said the material was too slippery, but I didn't find that a problem. It stays securely in my pocket. Can't really comment on durability yet, but it appears well made.
Pros
  • Thiness, capacity, zippered pocket, price.
Cons
  • Logo on outside a bit obtrusive.

Yes it is thin
May 7, 2015
I am very pleased with my wallet. It is defiantly thinner then my old one. I have approximately 10 credit cards and a couple of thinner identification cards in it. I also have a couple of pictures in the hidden pockets. The zippered compartment is great for a small amount of change or for a key. Fits easily into a front pocket as well.
Pros
  • Thin, easy to use,
Cons
  • Don't see any yet.

Great Start
April 30, 2015
At first I thought this was the Wallet for me until I actually saw it in person. I would say that this wallet is great for people who have less than 7 to 9 cards. The zipper wasn't as big or have enough space as I thought it would... There are times when I feel like I want to return it and times when I just want to keep it.
Pros
  • Great wallet to start off with
  • Has a zipper enough for a few coins but not too many coins
  • Really thin and light
Cons
  • When I put it in my pocket it feels like my old wallet which was very bulky

PERFECT !
April 13, 2015
Have used the bifold wallet for years but ordered both the bifold & the trifold. Went with the trifold first - something new. Always forgetting to push away the third fold. Enough room for the most important cards but awkward to access them all. (Maybe I was just used to the perfectly placed bifold). The zippered slot for change was turned wrong and awkward to put coins in. The gray/white pattern was really nice - in a bifold it would be perfect! The bifold with the zippered pocket is efficient, easy. Makes it easy to get a transaction done, wallet put away and go.
Pros
  • Enough slots for the most important cards. Lightweight. Fits in any bag, any briefcase, any tote, any pocket. Everything is at your fingertips with a flick of your wrist. Zippered pocket goes the same way as the slots so you don't have to turn the wallet to access it - go from the front to the back and you're done. No fiddling to get anything out - open, transact, close and you're on the way. Would love to see it in at least one color/pattern that's more vibrant - meaning easier to find in a purse! Do NOT change anything about the construction - it's perfect the way it is!!!!

Thin wallet provides exceptional storage
March 24, 2015
This is a great wallet for European travel since the paper money pocket bigger to accommodate larger sized bills and the zippered pocket is perfect for coins. The wallet fits in back or front pants pockets with no problem. This is the 3rd different style Big Skinny wallet that I have purchased and they all are exceptional and I highly recommend this and any of their others - all very high quality as well.
Pros
  • House larger bills with no problem. Keep coins together. Thin but hold enough credit cards to be perfect for traveling.
Cons
  • None that I have found so far.

Great wallet
March 18, 2015
My friend is jealous of my wallet. I really like it. I chose blue bi-fold men's wallet with the change pouch on the outside. It's a great wallet. The fact that it's not leather was a major selling point for me. It's unfortunate that the shipping to Canada is so expensive. Almost doubles the price. Maybe there's something to be done there. I have received other packages from the US and elsewhere with cheaper shipping rates.

March 17, 2015
Love the wallet. It's very slim and holds a lot. Very easy to get things in and out of and the bill fold area is deep enough for bills and receipts. I wish the label wasn't so obvious since I hate carrying/wearing things with other peoples names on them (a real pet peeve of mine). I colored the label over with a dark sharpie so it's less obvious. Overall the wallet is great. Fits in my back pocket too which is really nice.

very nice but change 2 items
March 8, 2015
as described. pretty much covers what a demanding person would like in a wallet, a world one.
Pros
  • thin
  • lots of pockets: cards, id window, hidden and coins
  • looks imposing without the thickness
Cons
  • zipper handle should be changed: gets caught quite a few times and may possibly injure
  • logo should be thinner if not just an almost inconspicuous print on the wallet: may even make it look more classy
By Mark C.

Love It!
October 20, 2014
I am thrilled with the World Bifold Wallet. This summer I purchased "The Curve" as a wallet for travel and wound up using it constantly because I liked it so much. I did, however, want a little more room for more cards and receipts for my "every day wallet" so I ordered the World Bifold. It holds everthing and is still thin and lightweight. My only suggesttion would be that it would be nice to have a snap closure on it like their is on The [Taxicat], but I suppose that would make it bulkier for those who keep it in their pockets. I would definitely recommend this wallet. The World Bifold Wallet definitely deserves a 5-star rating.

Update to my previous review
October 1, 2014
This review is for Big Skinny's customer service. I just received notice that the company is sending me a replacement wallet, even though my one-year warranty has expired. With that kind of service, I happily upgrade my review to five stars. Thanks for keeping me a happy customer!

Love the wallet but not the cheap zipper
September 19, 2014
The wallet itself is great. Even with 14 cards in it, it's still thinner than any wallet I've ever owned. I've had mine for a little more than a year and a half, and it's held up with very little wear ... with one exception: the zipper on the pocket. Within about six months, the leather zipper pull had separated at the point where the two sides were glued together and fell off. Not a big problem, as I could still slide the metal part back to open the zipper. But now the zipper has become completely stuck and won't open at all, which is more of a problem because my car registration and insurance card are in there. I may have to destroy the wallet in order to get them out, which would kinda suck. I guess I should have checked the warranty when the leather tab fell off. Since it's only one year, I guess I'm screwed. Not sure I'd reorder this wallet for that reason, but otherwise it's great.
