Bellroy Apex Slim Sleeve performed better than I expected!

With so much "different" going on with this Bellroy Slim Sleeve wallet I had some lower expectations when I took it out for a 3 week carry test. The Bellroy Apex Slim Sleeve did just fine, the only remaining issue is will the new construction method hold up...only time will tell. @bellroy_official

QOTD: ⚡I'm still on the fence regarding the longevity of Bellroy as I've heard both sides, what's been your experience?

[radwandarkal]

As i commented in your previous Apex video i had an issue with the closing mechanism for more than 4 cards and i addressed that to Pellroy and they were very responsive and they immediately send me new wallet with better molding buffer and easily i can fit 5 cards and 2-3 slip of a cash and it close almost 100% with no gap.
After 4 weeks using it i can say it's nice, light, comfy and thin wallet.

Having a pocket that allows RFID passthrough + isolates it from other cards is a huge pro for me. I can just shove my MetroCard there and not have to worry about my other contactless cards confusing the turnstile reader.
If anyone knows any good wallets that have this underrated feature pls pls pls let me know.

How is this wallet holding up?. Curious to know after 4 years. 😅

Looking forward to your review of Lo Essencial’s “Classic Wallet”, Mark! I’ve owned and used one for a couple of months now, and I’m very satisfied! One of the card compartments can even be used to fit 2-3 coins without having them fall.

I am currently waiting on the Thread Wallet that you had reviewed! Any chance your doing their bifold soon?

[mohammedfaiisal]

It looks a bit big that wallet. If they made a smaller one, I'd have gotten it

[canyonblue-b]

let's assume the heat welding holds up, i'm just trying to see the advantages? i suppose you don't see stitching for a cleaner look, but to me it looks unfinished? the bump up molding also to me makes the wallet look like a box wallet and isn't nearly as good looking as the regular slim sleeve. the magnets have some mild advantages like the parking pass storage you mentioned, but then you need to take an additional step to properly open by pinching it unlike a regular wallet. i'm all for new ideas and good on bellroy for trying, but this seems to be trying to solve problems that were never problems in the first place while introducing whole new issues and downsides to consider (including price.) i'd certainly go for a regular slim sleeve over this, even if the apex were the same price... and it isn't.

I went with the slim sleeve designer bc as I'm not a fan of the pre-mold. Helpful videos !

[SantaZeede]

Thank you for the long term carry review! Any chance you'll be reviewing the Trayvax Ascent or Dango M1 Maverick Rail?

[Kdaileyy]

What do you like best this or the apex sleeve

[romeoclipsMRD]

I have a metal visa card. How do metal cards sit in this one?

[anurag]

Can you please review wallets by Rose Anvil?

[tanejashivamst]

This video was all i needed to keep the wallet. At first i was unsure how long the glue would survive

[MrFuturehistory]

whats a good RFID blocking card you recommend to put into a wallet?

[darkehorse]

Great follow up Mark. Can you do a review on the i-Clip wallet?

[ChouChouDer]

I feel like all the Bellroy products look great but make me worry about if they could hold up long term.

[ygiibr]

Would you recommend this? I carry maybe 5 cards and only use debit. Sometimes carry cash or someone's business card I need.

[vazquez]

I like this wallet but I think it's overpriced, I understand the quality of Bellroy I use their key holder and it's top notch but to me the functionality of this wallet is good but not top tier if a wallet doesn't have non foldable cash storage I automatically dock it a point, I love the eckster, the akeeni, the ridge, they're all cool wallets but currently I'm rocking with the open seas topsider bifold and it's pretty awesome

[alvinchng]

Happy that rfid doesn't work but sad that they charge that function onto their price tag.
