Rough Enough Credit Card Holder Wallet

An honest, if excessively long and somewhat sarcastic review of what is actually a really good product that I am (mostly) very happy with... I love this Rough Enough Mens Card Holder Wallet with Lanyard Neck Zipper for Men Teen Boys, even tho I'm not sure I know exactly what a 'Lanyard Neck Zipper' is. I'm also glad I'm a Man Teen Boy and not a Woman Teen Girl because it's clearly not for them, and I wanted one. I am using it for EDC (that's 'Every Day Carry' for those who don't have Internet access, and it means the stuff I carry with me every day). It is a better size than most of the other EDC pouches that I have found available. One of the big name brands (which I will not name here, but it rhymes with 'wax partition') has a pouch of the same dimensions (at half the price), but it does not have day-glo orange card slots like this one does, and no Lanyard Neck Zipper. This one fit nicely in my back pocket and probably still would if I only put cards, money and a few coins in it. But what fun is that? I filled it up with a bunch of 'useful' EDC stuff. Now it is a little fat, so into a cargo pocket it goes. There is a bit of a bulge but not too much, and we all know how the ladies love a bulge in the cargo pocket. I was using the 'Rough Enough Small Coin Purse Change Pouch Slim EDC Pocket Wallet for Men Teen Boys with Zipper in Black CORDURA'... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015CHTBSW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1It ...and I love that one too, but it only zips two sides and is a little finicky getting things in/out. I will keep using that one for other things. And I can return it to my back pocket, where it has been for the past four years (and still looks brand new by-the-way), since this new one is going cargo. This one zips three sides allowing you to open it like a book for easy access to the contents. It seems very well made with YKK zippers, quality fabrics, and good stitching. The "Military Grade Fabric" is "6x Stronger and Longer Lasting". 6x stronger than what? I don't know and they don't really say. But, based on the longevity (4+ years and still like new) of my other RGH wallet, I expect it will last a good while. I like the "purposely adopted" day-glo orange nylon inside. It really does make it easier to see the contents, and it might keep me from getting shot by hunters when I'm going for my chap-stick. The zippered internal pocket is nice too. I have made a couple of minor mods like adding some elastic loops for my Space Pen, and a flashlight (see photos). I also made some tiny 'tool rolls' by folding a strip of 1.5" elastic and sewing across it to make sleeves. This keeps things organized and not flopping all around. I wouldn't want my 'Uncle Bill's Tweezers' poking a hole in my foil-wrapped latex emergency safety equipment. I can keep all (most) of my non-TSA-approved items in one of the 'tool rolls' and pull that one out when circumstances dictate. Over-all, I am quite happy with this Rough Enough Mens Card Holder Wallet with Lanyard Neck Zipper for Men Teen Boys, but I have a few wants and gripes... WANTS: 1. I would like to have double zippers on the outer shell. Yes, my primary attraction was that it zips all the way open, but having double zippers would still do that while giving me more options and I LIKE options. 2. A pocket/sleeve on the outside (the empty side, opposite to the MOLLE webbing) would be nice. No zipper, no ID window, just a sleeve (with the opening on the long side) that I could have the option to slip a card or two into and access without unzipping my zipper. 3. Another (metal) D-Ring on the other end would quadruple the hanging options. And, you know, the only thing the ladies love more than a bulge in the cargo pocket, is a big fat Mens Card Holder Wallet for Men Teen Boys hanging around your neck from a multi-colored Lanyard Neck Zipper. 4. Color options. Black is fine and I'm perfectly happy with it, but I might have chosen Coyote Tan, or Ecru, or Feldgrau, or maybe, Dusky Enchanted Alpine Forest Green, had those options been available. Also, a red one might make a nice pocket-size first-aid kit. GRIPES (mostly with the accessories, and not the wallet itself): 1. $30 seems a bit dear. Obviously, I was willing to pay that price (it was late, and I might have had one too many... tacos. Plus, I used some of my Amazon rewards points, so no big deal right?), but somewhere between $15 and $20 seems more fitting. I would like to have a couple more in different colors (like red to make a nice pocket-size first-aid kit), and with two, I could have balanced bulges, but at this price, I'll try to be content with just the black one and a slight limp. 2. The D-Ring on the outside is plastic. Really? What would it have cost, another penny, to put a metal D-Ring there? And one on the other end (see #3 above). 3. Paracord zipper pull. I don't hate it, but you should have left the zipper pull alone and let me decide what to do with it. OPTIONS, man. You've deprived me of them by removing the original metal zipper pull. Did it have 'YKK' on it or not? 4. The key-fob thing is pretty cool, I like that it's "purposely adopted bright orange", and I like the little white bit that you can write your name in, which would be perfect if your name is Bill, or Jim but not so much if your name is Bartholomew or Montgomery. However, RGH should be ashamed to put their logo on it with that embarrassing plastic clip. C-Mon man. 5. The lanyard seems a bit gimmicky. True, I have the option to use it or not, and at least it has a metal clip. My granddaughter said, "It's pretty", but her standards are... different from mine so I will trade it to her for one of her hand-made Friendship Bracelets and she can use it for her school ID. 6. The carabiner is okay, and, at first, I was like, "Wow, nice carabiner", but the screw-lock is looser than a greased up snow goose and has no stop so it screws right off the end making it (the screw-lock) completely useless, and I was like, "Dubya-Tea-Eff?!". Of course, I could just take the screw-lock off and use it like a regular carabiner, but the threads will always be there... mocking me. So... RGH... Ditch the gimmicky accessories and drop the price a bit. Any third-grader who can make a Friendship Bracelet can make a lanyard out of paracord, and they probably have some (better) carabiners laying around the house. Okay, throw in the key-fob for free advertising, but at least put a metal clip on it for Garden sake. I will highly recommend this Rough Enough Mens Card Holder Wallet with Lanyard Neck Zipper for Men Teen Boys to both of my friends even tho one of them is a woman, and she can't have one 'cuz she's a Woman Teen Girl and not a Man Teen Boy and she will be bummed, and I will get much schadenfreude from taunting her with it. And while I will heap a wealth of praise upon this Rough Enough Mens Card Holder Wallet with Lanyard Neck Zipper for Men Teen Boys (Mostly because I really do like it, but partly to justify how much I spent on it), I will also include my wants and gripes with my recommendation.

Surprisingly well constructed. Looks like it'll last forever. I bought it for a neck wallet during summer concerts, but I think I'm gonna use it full time, I really like it. UPDATE: It works great for concert-goers, took it to 3 already! Holds cash, cards, and id, with plenty of space for your party favors. At the gates it sticks easily in your back pocket just like a wallet so they don't search it. #gummysmuggling lol

Got tired of the standard tri-fold wallets, which can be very bulky. I tried a couple of other types, but wasn't happy. I finally gave this one a shot, even though I thought the pictures with the models were pretty goofy. It is an accordion-style wallet with plenty of space in each slot for multiple cards. I have credit/debit cards on one side, and insurance/ID on the other. There is a center zipper pouch for loose change or memory cards, etc. The interior is bright orange, making it easy to see in less-than-optimal light. Overall, the quality appears to be very good, and it works great as a front-pocket wallet. The accessories are neat, but not essential. I would prefer a black lanyard. The carabiner seems to be well made, and the key fob is fine. I think it would be wise to offer a variant without these extras at a lower price. As of now, this is my favorite wallet.

I used to misplace or lose my wallet constantly, but this wallet ended that. It has a sturdy loop attached outside so I can now securely fasten my wallet to larger things which are impossible to forget or lose. The zipper works smoothly and nothing ever falls out, even stuff as small as a dime are safe. The interior is bright orange so everything inside stands out, even in dim light. There are plenty of inside pockets, and a variety of them, and even an internal super-safe zipped pocket. The construction is rugged, made like a high-end backpack. Size is oversized slightly in all three directions so you can fit stuff larger than cards, plus you don't need needle nose pliers to get stuff out. Final thing I like is that it only opens 90 degrees - won't fly open out of control and drop stuff out. Cost seemed high, but if I knew how good it was I would have paid more. One single bad thing is that the carabiner which comes with it could open on its own. So I just use a rock-climbing one instead. Crazy as it sounds, I actually like paying for stuff at stores so I can use this thing! (I hope that wears off)

Quality made sturdy zippers love it all the way but it’s purpose is not to be filled up like purses or shoulder bag but to hold cards and money as a new way to Cary your belongings

I waited a week for the wallet and never came was really looking forward to the wallet and see what this brand had to offer and opened the box to only the keychain very disappointed

Excellent wallet no issues still had it for months NEOW Cards, money, inside is a coin case and wallet is perfect size to put a *apple tag or Samsung tag or Tile app one too.

GREAT QUALITY, VALUE
