Multi-Pocket Bi-fold Wallet
February 20, 2018
As far as the Multi-Pocket Bi-fold wallet is concerned I do like it very much although I had wished I would had gotten a little larger model, it is so small that I am concerned about losing it.

As a long time Big Skinny customer I came back to try the original style I bought 10+ years ago. I was not disappointed. Great quality. Lightweight.

Wanted one like my old one. The slots opened to the middle so nothing could slip out. So it was slightly taller than this one, but would hold More than this one. So if you make one with slots on the vertical not the horizontal send me a few gratis!

Great "thin" wallet
January 8, 2018
I replaced my L-shape leather Big Skinny wallet after around 4-5 years with the multi-pocket bifold and am extremely happy with the choice. The synthetic bifold material makes the wallet slimmer than the leather version and slims things down quite a bit. In terms of card-carrying capacity, I did not see a big reduction in going from the L-shape wallet, which is quite generous, to the more compact bifold. It was an opportunity to trim down on carrying some of my old store cards and the like, but I probably didn't have to do that other than to make the new wallet slimmer. The card pockets seem a bit stickier (in a good way) compared to the old leather version and things seem to stay better organized and compact after loading up the wallet. Also, the billfold area seems a tad deeper - perhaps this is more my imagination. I will know once I try to carry international notes like pounds sterling in it. Lastly, the wallet is also a little bit "flexier" than the leather version and this allows it to conform to pant pockets a bit better, IMO. One difference is the Big Skinny logo, which sticks out a bit in the new version vs. the embossing on the leather wallet. However, this seems to help in terms of pulling the wallet out of the pocket - so I will consider this a feature rather than a bug. Overall, I am super happy with my new wallet and I hope that I have many years of yeoman service with it as with my last Big Skinny.

I have been carrying a Compact Sports Wallet for many years. Needing something with a bit more card carrying capability, I ordered the Multi-Pocket Bi-fold. It works great for me. The only thing I would change would be to remove the partition from the billfold area. I have no need for two billfold areas.

Really slim
September 16, 2017
I was shopping for a thin wallet. This one fit the bill. It is really slim and card and cash access is easy.

Merchant Response:Hi Ken, Thank you for your feedback! Sounds like your alteration would work, but we are hoping that our rubber BIgSkinny logo on the outside of the wallet creates enough friction in the pocket to prevent it from slipping out of pockets. Thank you again for your review! Have a great week ahead! -BigSkinny
Cons
  • The exterior of the wallet is slippery. I think it would be an easy target for pick pockets. I think I'll glue a silicone rubber stripe or put some silicone rubber dots on the exterior to keep it from sliding so easily out of my hip pocket.

Best low-profile, most durable wallet I've ever had
September 8, 2017
I purchased my 2nd and 3rd because I lost the first, and had the second stolen. The wallet is super low profile, perfect for 4 credit cards, driver license, insurance card, a few bills and some receipts or checks. You won't do better for a man's casual, durable wallet. Go Big Skinny!
Pros
  • Durable, low-profile, high quality, good color options, nylon - not leather, thin
Cons
  • Can't think of any!

Needless to say I carry more cards than the average person. I I also don't like to have a lot of "stuff" in my pockets while I'm working.

June 16, 2017
This is the second Big Skinny I've had. The original, after years of use, finally had to be replaced. While awaiting the arrival of my new Big Skinny, I had to use my old leather wallet - which was too thick and uncomfortable. Very glad when my new wallet arrived. Great product and I'm well satisfied.
Pros
  • Much thinner, much lighter, thus more comfortable than leather wallet it replaced. Long lasting.

Had been looking for a replacement for my old Eagle Creek vertical bi-fold, which EC had replaced with a significantly larger new version. Your MPBF is wonderful. My only real regret is that it took me so long to find it.
Pros
  • Fabulously compact!
Cons
  • It's not a vertical bi-fold.

Best wallet in the market
May 5, 2017
This is the second Big Skinny wallet I've owned. I like the size. It's small yet has room for all my cards and they are easy to reach and pull out when I need them. It feels right in my back pocket. I know it's there but I don't have to sit differently just because I have a wallet in my back pocket. I've tried other wallets but always go back to Big Skinny because it's durable and has everything I need in a wallet.

Best Wallet Evah!
May 4, 2017
I have been looking for a nice thin wallet since forever. I've tried Allett. I've tried the triHOLD. I've tried a couple different Columbia wallets. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, comes close to approaching the Big Skinny. I liked Thebes's blue one so much I ordered a black one less than two months later. This wallet is absolutely terrific.
Pros
  • Thin as advertised. Cards and cash stay put. Feels incredibly comfortable in any pocket.

Big Skinny Bi-Fold
January 24, 2017
Still going strong after years of carry. Was looking a bit grimy, but a quick trip through the washer fixed that! Love the spare key holder and it has saved me several times. Thank for a great product! Might have to try the world bi-fold next...

  • Nice and skinny!
Cons
  • I'm not...

Best wallet I've owned
January 5, 2017
I've had a multi-pocket bifold wallet for over five years - longest ANY wallet has ever lasted. I added a clear picture insert for more cards and pictures, but it is still the thinnest walet I've owned. The nylon makes it easy to get out of my poket, and is MUCH stronger and less wear-prone than leather. I am replacing it not because it has fallen apart, just gotten a bit worn-looking. If I didn't carry it everywhere in my pocket, it would still be perfect, Im sure. Awesome wallet.
Pros
  • Thin, light, smooth, easy to take out; many pockets, double bill section for separating cash and receipts. Remakably strong and slow to wear.
Cons
  • Doesn't come with picture insert. I think thats it. No other complaints.

Easy to use
July 6, 2016
This is my second one so I clearly like them. It is slim so it's not such a lump to sit on. It slides in and out of my pocket easily. Good quality.
Pros
  • Light, slim, well organized, well made.
Cons
  • Eventually (several years) the divider in the bill compartment gets flimsy and tends to crumple when inserting bills or receipts.

My husband loved it
June 25, 2016
This was a Father's Day gift to replace a worn out thin wallet. After 1 day of use, my husband let me know that he liked my choice much, much better than the wallet it was replacing.
Pros
  • Smaller and thinner than the old wallet yet it holds everything he needs.

Nice wallet
April 25, 2016
It's all I'd hoped for: a replacement for my first Big Skinny wallet. Minus one star for adding the thick rubbery patch saying Big Skinny on the outside. Keeping it classy? A step down from my first one.

Merchant Response:Hi Andrew, Thank you for your feedback. We are looking at creating a line where our logo is screen-printed on the inside. Hope to have them available for purchase soon. Thank you for your review! Kind regards, Big Skinny
Pros
  • Everything else
Cons
  • Goofy branded patch

Purchased this and "The Curve" to see which shape / size I liked better. Using this one. This is my second time as Big Skinny customer. Previously used the thin leather wallet a few years ago. Was really happy with leather until I got rained on and the wallet "ink?" stained everything in the wallet and my pants. Went to some other wallets for a couple of years. Back now, hoping non-leather is not going to stain. But really happy with size and pocket fit.

Awesome Wallet
March 6, 2016
This is my second Big Skinny Multi-Pocket Bi-Fold. The first one is years old - and still 100% functional. It is black though, so when I drop it in my car, or lay it on a dark surface, I have a hard time finding it. So I bought a new one in the graphite color.
Pros
  • Absolutely has been the best wallet I have ever had. (I'm 64, I've had many.) Would easily last a decade or more.
  • Also - I don't use leather products so it is a triple bonus for me to find something so useful and durable that is not made from an animal by-product. (Hint, hint, Big Skinny. There is a niche market out there for you.)
Cons
  • I would like a choice of other colors - a nice red, or something that pops out when I am looking for it on my dresser. At the same time, something that you can pull out of your pocket and it's not so flashy that you feel weird about it.
  • I did not like the graphite color. I actually gave it to a friend.

Great Product, Slow Shipping
February 21, 2016
This is my third "Big Skinny" - which should tell you how well I love the wallet. This time around, shipping was incredibly slow. Took almost two weeks to arrive. I understand that FedEx SmartPost is not really in the control of the Big Skinny company, but an alternative shipping company is.
Pros
  • Great wallet! Skinny as a wallet can be, despite the amount of cards/cash you put in it
Cons
  • Slow shipping means that you have to wait a long time before you get it in your hands

Good thin wallet but a few issues
February 14, 2016
I have had this wallet now for about 2 years. I like it and for the price with this durability, it is a very good deal.

Merchant Response:Hi Jamie, Thank you for your feedback. We will take your points into consideration. Have a great day! Big Skinny
Pros
  • Exterior smoothness slides in and out of pocket just right.
  • durable
Cons
  • 3 main issues:
  • 1. the lack of rigidness in the wallet and cash area divider makes it hard to put cash in the wallet
  • 2. the tacky finish is great for credit cards but it is a pain in the cash area to slide bills in and out. That area should be smooth.
  • 3. I only put one credit card in each slot and my credit cards developed cracks in them from pushing against the bottom edge of the credit card next to it because there is so little material in between each card. This could be fixed by making the material separating the cards more rigid as well.

Sweet wallet. It's so slim that I keep having those freakout moments where I think I've left my wallet at home because I no longer have that familiar lump in my back pocket...but it's back there. Looks good, too. I've had several coworkers grab it off my desk and be like, "Ooh, nice wallet." That never happens with wallets.

February 11, 2016
My husband bought his big skinny 10 years ago in NYC at a street fair. He has loved this wallet and appreciated it's lightness and thinness. Although his is still in perfect condition, I decided it was time for a fresh new one. Thank you for still selling your perfect wallets!

Nice Wallet
February 3, 2016
Would like to start off with that they sent me a tri-fold wallet. I told them I was not taking the time to send it back and would keep the tri-fold. I just wanted them to know they messed up so they could fix whatever caused me to not get what I ordered. Well, they sent me a bi-fold wallet within a week. So I got two wallets for the price of one. I don't like tri-folds but it seems nice for one. The bi-fold is everything I like. Light, slim, with enough slots to hold the cards I have. The cards are never in danger of sliding out. The only drawback is the thick, big, plastic logo stitched on the outside of the wallet. I cut that off and now it's a perfect wallet for me. If this wallet ever wears out, which I doubt, I will be sure to get another Big Skinny Bi-Fold.
Pros
  • Light
  • Slim
  • Cards don't slip out
  • Price
Cons
  • Big, thick, plastic logo sewn on outside

Defies the Laws of Physics...Awesome!
February 3, 2016
This wallet totally lives up to it's reputation! Highly versatile and defies the laws of physics! I cannot believe how much I have stored in my wallet, and yet it maintains its compactness...simply amazing! I have always carried the "dad wallet" that was on the brink of bursting and appeared as a big lump in my pants pocket. Well, no more! I was skeptical, as you may be, but I am now a believer! I highly recommend this product and this brand, accept no substitutes!

Does exactly what they say
January 2, 2016
Great so far. I would say 50% less bulky than the wallet it replaced. My only concern is how it will hold up over time with daily use. So far after a couple of weeks it still looks new.

My old Big Skinny held up for over 4 years...
December 23, 2015
I purchased a new one, exact same version as my old one. Old one held up fine, except after 4 years of use the plastic in the bill section started to crumble and pieces broke off. I do spend a lot of time in 100+ degree weather, so that may have something to do with it. The rest of the wallet held up find. And it holds more than I expected.

Excellent product! My son only misses room to put the coins.
November 24, 2015
My son loves the slim design and nice coloured fabric. He was only dissapointed there was nothing to put coins in. Since he is a student he has a lot of those, and less of the paper money. But overall great product!
Pros
  • Design, fabric, quality
Cons
  • No space for coins
