Had mine for some time now and still enjoy having it. My only minor issues are the corner of the cards getting chewed and beat up from the rails pretty quickly. Four cards seems to be a little more difficult to slide in and out, especially my Chase cards since the cards like the Freedom Unlimited and Flex still have the embossed numbers. So for now, I just stick with three cards in the back. The other issue is that if you have money in the compartment, it makes the back of the card hard to slide back in at times if you take the card in the back out first instead of the card in the front. Having a card in the back that you rarely use like your driver's license definitely helps. Other than that, it's a great wallet and I hope that they come out with a M1 variation for the attachment with different colors and possibly leather.

They need to make the rail a little bit larger and should diminish the rattling. Also with this wallet you must have 4 cards in it at all times or with only 3 cards they will fall off.

I haven’t paid much attention to Dango wallets in the past, but this review has opened my eyes...they really have some neat stuff (I also like the M1 Rail and the R Spec line). I could definitely see collecting Dango products as a cool but potentially expensive hobby!

Now they have a new adapter called the pull pocket BUT when you pull on the tab the all adapter comes off if you don't hold it AND if you hold it in the center you are putting pressure on the cards making it more difficult for the tab to work . Now if they invert the tab then when you put the cards back inside the pressure will pull the adapter off. I think they need a small lock for the adapter that you can press to release and that might also fix the adapter rattling issue.

I’ve been carrying it every day for several weeks and I love it. I sent Dango three design modification ideas but they didn’t bother to reply. My main complaint is that I have to lift the edge of the top card up in order to fully insert it, otherwise it will get Hartland my up on the internal metal edges. Easy fix with slight change in milling process, but slightly irritating with the current design. Great wallet though.

@walletopia3 жыл бұрын
I don't know for sure, but I'll take an educated guess based on the slide and rail system. The entry heads flex so both sides of the card flow in with little pressure on the sides of the card once in place. I see numbers wearing off on all kinds of wallets (when embossed) but I don't see anything in particular with this wallet that would accelerate that wear and tear from this wallet.

Hi Alfonso, thanks for the question. Personally I prefer minimalist wallets so that's where I'd start. If you need something that can handle cash and you're okay folding your notes, then any wallet will do just fine. If you're picky about only wanting to fold your cash once or not at all, then a cash wrap wallet is good. If you go to explore.walletopia.info and filter on price up to $20 and choose Slim as the wallet type you'll see a number of options that work really well.
