Dango A10 Adapt Wallet: The modular TRANSFORMING wallet!

[@SERGE_D-K]

I placed my order yesterday. I probably will add the single pocket later on. I really like your videos.

[@ovidionieves855]

I had received an email from dango advertising the A1 wallet but ignored it. Until I saw your review on it. Great detail review! Anyway now I'm going to order one now, you should get some kind of recognition for the effort review.

[@clayb.6077]

I really like this wallet and how it adapts to your needs. Very informative video and showing the different configurations. Good job.

[@cmart9240]

I have watched your reviews on the ridge, grip 6 V2, xsto wallet and now this one. This is by far my favorite one so far. And I agree with you, the single pocket attachment looks to be the best combo for my personal uses. The bifold pen/book combo looks bad ass too.

[@armandcouture4655]

It would be nice if they offered that bi fold option in leather.

[@derrickrussell4260]

Thank you for reviewing this wallet, I’d been wanting to check it out since I saw it was out. Looks amazing! Great video!

[@tonyallen3138]

Man Dango makes some great wallets. I just received the A-10 Bifold w Pin and it’s amazing. Definitely a fan for life.

[@rudechowder]

I've been using this wallet for the past few days, and while the RFID side only holds 4 cards , it does have a little more space. It's not enough for a 5th card, but you can store some additional bills in there as well and stay slim without the money clip

[@rudechowder]

I’ve also noticed that sometimes it’s difficult to put the cards back into the back rail slot , not sure if it needs some break-in time. For example getting Costco gas and taking two cards out.. one approach that seems to work better when putting the cards back is to push the other two cards out via the thumb push slot , then insert the Costco and credit card back and then push all 4 cards back in .

[@maxdemps6504]

What rfid mean

[@christechguy]

@@maxdemps6504 Radio Frequency Identification, basically tap to pay cards you get them close enough to the terminal and beep they scan your card without swiping or putting the chip in.

[@ChrisMcCarroll]

bought one of these a few days ago. just came across this video. Now im even more excited to receive the A10. Great review.

[@MASFATNINJA]

This one has me wanting to send back my ridge and trayvax wallets. I may order this for myself and keep my Ridge as a backup option and give my trayvax away as a gift.

[@foolishjuan3883]

So will the money clip fit w/ the bi-fold wallet?

[@MASFATNINJA]

foolish juan no I do not believe so. I purchased their stand alone money clip which can slide in the arch nicely but it honestly needs a couple minor tweaks to be worth buying and after a week or two with this wallet , you’ll want to change it. I went back to the ridge wallet bc it’s a better fit for my minimalist nature but I do like Dango’s products for the most part.

[@Ryan-qk3nn]

I bought this wallet with your link (hope you got credit because I clicked ad early in the day then used your link to purchase so not sure if it tracks it like it does on eBay or amazon) but I got it today and it’s literally how you explained it was and I absolutely love it.

[@ChrispyThings]

That’s awesome! So I don’t get credit because I’m not sponsored by Dango. But it’s all good. It’s there to make it easier for everyone to go straight to their site.

[@-DILLIGAF]

Awesome review. Thank you for taking the time. Very helpful.

[@modificationnation73]

Just bought the titanium version with a couple add ons. Thanks for the awesome video

[@justingiovanetti]

A money clip that flips, like with a magnetic piece seen on leather wallets, or maybe with a hinge is a much better experience for holding money. And accessing cards portrait direction, where the slots are also staggered is better than any landscape way of getting to your cards. Even with the extra notch on the bottom to push them through.

[@ChrispyThings]

Money clips that flip up are great for leather bifolds, not so much if the clip is located on the outside of the wallet. I feel that would cause more problems than anything.

[@mikelindeman9755]

Love the modularity. Another well thought out review. Ready for the next.

[@cowishHuggingson]

Kinda thrown by the bifold that doesn’t fold bills?? For me that’s the main virtue of bifold design: folding my bills

[@icexix9701]

You are the best, thanks for the review! I had a trayvax that my significant other sent through the wash and bent it all to hell. The color I had , they didn't sell anymore and I've been looking for a replacement for months. This is the 1 thanks again!

[@SAMCHICLA]

Nothing beats the beautiful and very well design Trayvax Contour !!!!

[@WarThunder-zt4xw]

Thank you for the video. I would like to see how it holds up being shaken and also being pulled in and out of a pocket. This is especially important with the money clip. I do lots of cash transactions.

[@Hosunlee89]

I love this wallet so much I bought 2...I got the gold chassis, black leather bifold, and gold pen. Loved it, but it felt a little too dressy/douchey at times. So I bought another one, silver chassis, whiskey brown single adapter, and walnut backplate. And yes I know I could have just bought the single adapter to fit it over the gold chassis, but that gold was a bit too much...my mistake. I switch them out when I'm feeling like one or the other. Big upgrade from my Fantom wallet in terms of looks and functionality imo. Love the customizable aspect of it.

[@ChrispyThings]

I have to agree with the gold being too flashy. Save it for the club. Lol

[@hfcxhf3]

Dude VERY NICE review! Thank you for covering everything! Gonna get this for my dad (and myself soon) and he a cash carrier and you showed all the places cash can go! Not just cards! Thanks for a very professional video! Like and subscribing!

[@ChrispyThings]

Thanks!

[@5000mrnomercy]

BTW, the pocket rattle is really a non issue. Almost 2 weeks with it and no issues. I also like that they did anodized this time instead of the Cerekote on the other styles.

[@ChrispyThings]

Are you saying that yours isn’t loose or you don’t really mind it.

[@5000mrnomercy]

@@ChrispyThings I'm saying the "rattle" is subjective. I don't see much if any movement on mine but what's a lot for some may be negligible for others.

[@blaineaburnettsr]

Just got mine and I should have listened more closely to the review. This thing is huge with the money clip and single card slot installed, even though it only holds 5 cards. The card holder rattling around is also annoying. Makes it feel a little cheap. Only when I'm holding it though, in the pocket it's not really noticeable. One thing to mention about the "secret compartment" is that if you use it for anything metal the top card get seriously scratched.

[@jrm15082]

When you took off the rfid plate definitely made me want it. Their next wallet should be a dapper rail wallet with the horizontal rail and either leather on the other side or the rfid plate. I would like the leather better don’t really need rfid.

[@ChrispyThings]

A Dapper rail would be cool. They’re always working on new stuff so fingers crossed

[@tholman404]

Nice wallet. I like the rail system on both sides instead of just one. I don’t care about RFID so I like that look with the plate off. Makes it very slim.

[@Edubbs111]

Waited for your review before I pulled the trigger. Thanks man!

[@mckaysmith8496]

Thanks for creating such quality videos about these unique wallets! But especially this wallet! Because it convinced me to pull the trigger on buying the Bifold during the Labor Day sale and I'm really enjoying it! 💪 Keep up the great work! 🙌

[@alan30189]

How much was it during the Labor Day sale?

[@Kember138]

I would like to see a band for it that works with the bifold! I ordered a couple of bands to try out with it. Not sure if it'll work but it's worth a try.

[@TongueJedi]

I love the design, but I know the minute I order they will release a special edition or better yet a titanium version with leather. how loose are the add-ons? Can it slide out easily if placed in a bag or something? think I would of like some sort of locking mechanism as they have with the tool insert on the M version.

[@ChrispyThings]

The pocket adapters click into place but there’s nothing locking them in. I don’t think they’ll come loose in a bag though.

[@alvinchng1982]

Can't wait to receive mine after seeing your video, placed my order on 19 Jul and still waiting for them to ship out. Usually for raised number cards, is good to stack their raised side facing each other on the opposite direction, just to balance out the thickness of the cards on both sides evenly when you stack them together.

[@Reasonably-Sane]

That's a clever idea.

[@alvinchng1982]

@@Reasonably-Sane Thanks.

[@rollingtones1]

Just bought one with the trifold billfold. One thing I am always concerned about with these metal wallets is: Will it wear out my Carhartt jeans faster than a more flexible leather wallet? This will be my first metal wallet.

[@christechguy]

I’ve carried a Ridge wallet for three years I can say confidently no, they’re really machined well so they don’t snag up your clothes.

[@bh9262]

When adding the single pocket to the wallet, you lose the ID holder, but add a single slot. Maybe picking up an extra card or 2 to hold?

[@gregtravis8794]

I have both the single and bi-fold versions. My personal preference is the single pocket. I placed my Drivers license upside as the first card in the vertical rail side. In the event that I need to show my ID I simply just slide off the single pocket and viola.

[@michaelcamacho4162]

This wallet is durable and very practical. I'm really going to order the money clip so I can put my cash. Thanks for the review; it is very informative. Great job.

[@christechguy]

If the rattle does bother you a bit Teflon tape around the edges of the adapter keep it from rattling.

[@bon2198]

Here’s my personal problem. I’ve had a traditional wallet forever. I’m 42 years old. That wallet is so hard to let go of. I have to carry 5 id’s with me at all times. Military retired card, drivers license and 3 firearm licenses. Then VA ID, credit card, and possibly a debit card if the credit card fails. So 8 cards is my minimum carry. So I like the idea of this having 2 sections but I want to put my mandatory 5 id’s in one section, preferably the I’d window side. So I wish the ID window side could fit more than 1 card.

[@tokyolife8337]

Excellent. It was very helpful. I also purchased it.

[@windowbreezes]

i hated the idea that i would be paying 75$ for essentially rubber bands and two sheets of metal just bound together or a fancy compact jack-in-the-box that just pushes cards out. the fact that this wallet took all that annoyance away for me, i'm finally convinced to switch to a metal wallet. specifically this one. there's actual multiple functions in the chassis design and true to its name, adapter expansions.

this is gonna sound dumb but does anyone have an issue getting the cards in and out? it seems like the rail system is too tight or something and you have to like put them in a specific way or else it chews up the sides of the card

[@NigeriaHammad7]

Ordered the pen wallet today thanks to your video. I’m excited to receive it.

[@beardedbiker2647]

Ok, here’s my issue with these type wallets. I’m currently using a Dango M1 because it’s the closest to what I need. However due to needing quick access to my ID/scan card for work adding any accessory (single or bifold pocket) attachment removes that feature for me. I think the A10 would be perfect if they made the RFID plate with the rail to accept the single or bifold attachment leaving the other side open for the single ID card. Or at least gives configuration options...

[@ChrispyThings]

Great idea.

[@ELEVOPR]

Bifold pen wallet is great to pack away in My Alpaka Bravo X Sling Bag. At $139.00 for the pen bifold wallet with note pad, I will put on my Black Friday List, that's just way to much money for that wallet. Everything doesn't need to be over priced just because it's nice. Thanks for a great review.

It was because of your reviews that I became aware of Dango in the first place. Was not so easy to find a seller with reasonably fair shipping to Germany. I have now found and ordered the A10 Single Pocket. But actually as a German I should have ordered me according to your reviews a Trayvax 🙂

[@kevington82]

I'll be honest I thought this looked stupid until I watched your video. I love how slim it is but once again it looks a bit bulky when you add even the single pocket. I love Dango designs but they seem to add unnecessary bulk. Would be cool to see a side by side comparison with the M1. Also curious if if the clip can handle single folded bills without them hanging over the edges? For some reason I just prefer that and it was one of the things that interested me in the M1 Chassis Clip. Awesome video as always!

[@ChrispyThings]

I was thinking of doing a comparison but wanted this video to solely be about the new A10. And yes if bills are folded in half, they hang over the edges. So I didn’t demo that. Thanks for watching!

[@AIPilot-Boda]

Ive found if you put 5 bills in the compartment then the pocket doesn’t slide around loosely at all. Actually may be the reason it’s a little loose... so you can fit more bills.

[@ChrispyThings]

The reason it’s lose is because there’s not enough bills acting as a buffer? The pockets really shouldn’t move regardless if there’s cash in there or not. But thanks for the info. Maybe someone will find it useful 👍🏻

[@AIPilot-Boda]

@@ChrispyThings yeah I agree. Once you spend a couple bills then it’s loose again. Would be nice if it wasn’t loose at all.

[@ChrispyThings]

Exactly. I’m hoping they address that issue soon. It’s small but still.

[@AIPilot-Boda]

An update on this: I reached out to the Dango team on facebook about the loose single pocket. They told me to “gently bend out the pocket clips on the frame with a screwdriver”. I did this and was able to adjust the tightness so it leaves a hair width amount of room for movement. Very pleased now. Try it out!

[@soloman01uk]

Awesome, was hoping you'd review this. I'm really tempted by it.

[@MBynum]

For the DTEX front attachment, how easy is it to slide the cards in and out from the pocket if you do 2 cards instead of 1 or 3?

[@TECHFIGHTER]

This was my exact question. I wonder why they wouldn't fit if they must be the same size as a credit card or ID we already slide into the rail. I mean if my ID and credit cards already fit in the M wallet rail will they not fit in this one?

@@ChrispyThings I received the wallet today. Right off the bat I noticed the A10 with the bifold does make it seem a bit bigger but it does a great job with holding cards and keeping it a bit slim. I noticed if you keep 2 - 3 cards in the metal chassis it does make a bit of a rattle which is not to big of a deal. The wallet is also surprisingly light and the detex material feels good to the touch. It will take some time getting used to the rail system as you do have to feed the card precisely into the groove to slide in, the click is satisfying letting you know the card is secured.

hey Chrispy, question for you. I just recently purchased the a10 bifold adapt wallet. the 1 card compartment will not go in completely if I have a card in there. did that happen to you when you first bought the wallet? Does it need to be broken in? No matter what I do, it only goes about 1/3 the way before it gets stuck and will not go any further to go back into the wallet. I have the titanium version, so not sure if that makes a difference compared to the original A10 when it was released.
