I own this version of the gravity and absolutely love it. Design and use case for a wallet is a highly personal thing, and this one is perfect for me, anyway. It's also really nicely made. Feels like it'll hold up over time, looks great, and lots of thoughtful touches. The little internal pocket is perfect for a guitar pick and the yubikey I have to carry for work. The SIM pocket will hold a micro SD card. I don't agree with the assessment in the comments that it must be bulky. After a month of daily use with 7 cards in it, it's worn in to where it does not feel in the least bit bulky. Really very nice, especially for the price. One correction on the review: they also offer a non-RFID version for $5 less, which is what I bought. It works perfectly with my metro card stashed inside.
@@shibaku73 Thanks John. I've been carrying this wallet for a couple weeks now and I don't have any problems using my access card through it so I think I have a non-RFID version too. Thanks for brining that up and everyone knows by now...I'd rather have the RFID version :)
Thanks for helping me decide to buy another wallet I don't need. I can't help myself on this one. There's something about it. BTW, doing the cash/card insertion tests would be way sexier with 10,000 Yen bills. 😉
Thanks for this. I was considering the Bellroy Slim Sleeve, but this has a bit better visual design. The only downside would be the thickness and maybe a designer skin version like the Bellroy. They seemed to have increased their price to be same-ish as the Bellroy Slim Sleeve since recording (at least using CAD)?
Yes, in November 2018 they raised their prices a bit. More in line with the market but when their prices were lower they had a real market share opportunity while still not undercutting on quality.
Hello Mark. Thanks for the continuous work. Was waiting for a review of the cash wrap and caddy wallets from Trove in January. Any update on it? Thanks.
Hi Paulo! Thank you for your patience, the Cash Wrap recording is completed and uploaded, but it's now scheduled for March 2nd. The Coin Caddy will be soon after that.
Auroch gravity is good but it's not practical in the middle of the market while you are exchanging cash, yes for cards its very convenient wallet i must say the best, and suddenly Aurochs raised their prices like hell
Agreed. If they would have kept their pricing just under the market norm, they could be killing it. Their quality does justify their pricing, but based on their supply chain, they really could increase market share on price alone.
make a left-handed oriented one where the you switch the pull tab to the right then we can talk else NO ! thank god the wallet i am using now is made with left-handed operation in mind
@@walletopia Ok...thank for writing...if you dont mind, i am very badly addicted about wallet..last using bellroy note sleeve,now already order for infinity.....is it good choice..pls suggest!!!!!
I've commented on this before. These small 'pocket items' no matter who designed them shouldn't fall in the category of 'wallets', less even cost so much. They're just simple 'card holders' in which one finds a tight space to fit a little bent cash. It's like calling practical comfortable real wallets 'card holders'. Each to his own.
It’s a definition thing. Society has accepted that anything which can hold cards or cash or coins is considered a wallet. From there the taxonomy breaks down further.
QOTD: ⚡ If you own an Auroch wallet, what are your thoughts? Generally, I've been impressed with their wallet lines.
I went with the wave. I can't ditch the bifold wallets, and I like how the cards are oriented.
@@mengx94 We have the Wave in inventory for a future review. How do you like it?

How about infinity
Good to see them working on making it better! Kudos to them for it too 😀👍🏻

Definitely inspired by Bellroy, but without the emphasis on thinness.
Great summary!
Thanks for this.

@@walletopia i second you on this
As a Brit I don't understand that SIM card slot etc, most phones have 2 SIM places so really makes no sense, unless you're up to no good lol
make a left-handed oriented one where the you switch the pull tab to the right then we can talk else NO !
thank god the wallet i am using now is made with left-handed operation in mind
Depends...if you use the archived cards or cash more. I prefer the cash on the left as a righty since archived cards are suppose to be rarely used.
O you know whats the brand of that southeast asia tannery? Or do you know any good SEA tannery leather brand?
Aurochs passport wallet is the best 100% recommend
Great review mark! This looks noticeably bigger than the slim sleeve, yeah?
Oh boy, yes, a little chunkier. I would say it's marginally "thicker" in feel and size that even the Slim Sleeve DE. It's certainly robust.
walletopia robust means super fat and bulky, doesn't it 😂
walletopia in other news, I'm trying out the stow wallet and titanium trayvax contour. Figure I'd keep an open mind...
Ooooh, you’ll need to tell me what you think!
walletopia I'll do that. Curious to see if the trayvax still damaging cards... I'll let you know!
Do you have a review of any of the bull strap wallets?
Hi Carlos, I haven't, but just went and took a look at them, we'll put them on our list.
Hi mark,i am from bangladesh....and its a nice video..like your all videos..as wallet lover...i want a review of aurochs infinity wallet
We have the Infinity in inventory, so we'll move it up the queue!
@@walletopia
I am waiting.... Very badly waiting...😥
@@coloristmabin5460 It's at least a month out on our current schedule.
@@walletopia
Ok...thank for writing...if you dont mind, i am very badly addicted about wallet..last using bellroy note sleeve,now already order for infinity.....is it good choice..pls suggest!!!!!
@@coloristmabin5460 Yes, the Infinity wallet is good. All of Auroch's wallets are constructed and designed well, so you won't be disappointed.
I’m sorry but that’s THE one of the bulkiest wallets I have ever seen. A massive thumbs down from me.....👎🏼
I'm carry-testing it now. It is a bit bulky, not something I would make my permanent carry wallet, but it is very capable.
So much bulk and it doesn't even have a bill-fold area.
my dog ate my wallet
Great excuse to buy another wallet!
