I've had one for a year or so and my biggest problem is that for the card slot to work it needs to have the exact right thickness of cards in it. Take one card out and suddenly your cards will fall out with nothing but gravity. Even the difference in thickness going from an embossed card to a flat card or a business card means my cards are WAY more likely to fall out from simply putting the wallet in my pocket upside down and walking around. I've had cards fall out so often that I instinctively put my finger over the slot whenever I have the wallet in my hand. The same level of thickness being added can make the cards jam in the slot and the mechanism is useless. It's really disappointing because nobody seems to bring this up. I'm shopping for a new wallet because of it which is a bummer after only 1 year.
That's interesting, something I haven't run into! If you are concerned with that being an issue again, I'd recommend taking a look at something like a Ridge, Aviator or Axwell (I'll post my reviews of those below). They hold the cards in differently (sandwich style), and you don't have to worry about them sliding out. - Aviator Review: ruclips.net/video/YLzuSpg0p50/видео.html - Ridge Review: ruclips.net/video/NrJew4J_XdY/видео.html - Axwell Review: ruclips.net/video/bGgexa_0JKw/видео.html
