Gotta say, I'm fairly disappointed with Bellroys attempt at manufacturing a slim wallet.

Love the concept of a thin small wallet. Love many things about their Note Sleeve attempt. Displeased with it's dimensions.

It's at least 10% bigger then an existing 10 year old Polo Ralph Lauren wallet that does exactly the same thing:

Note Sleeve: 9.1cm x 10.1cm Polo Ralph Lauren: 8.25cm x 9.25cm (10 years old and no longer in production)

* Standard credit card: 5.5cm x 8.5cm

All the alternative stuff out there looks even bigger then Bellroy:

Ugh, was so excited that someone was finally going to create something better. So disheartening because the ralph lauren wallet is no longer in production and if Bellroy had put a little extra effort into making their product smaller, it would be perfect.

rant over.
