I have this wallet. Had one before for 3 years. The leather was wearing out and I bought a new one last year. I added a credit card sized Tile. It holds easily 7 cards, the Tile, ID, a fresnel lens, $100 note. Never had an issue with the clip. Highly recommend this wallet.

Yeah you reviewed it! Thanks! Still my first choice for a wallet, none of the others beats this combination of low footprint, card capacity, and ease of use. I was used to the Secrid Slimwallet, which i find even more smooth in usage, but the iclip is the best for my front pocket!

I have a older style iclip with out the snapper/popper catch. Iv had it years. Sadly I did drop it and have cracked the frame. I have repaired it and it's still going strong. I would replace for a new one but I don't like the side snapper/popper. So I will keep using mine until its beyond repair.

The one revision I'd make, I'd have the leather fold over the card space too. It would help keep the cash more uniform when when there's more cards in the wallet than slips of cash. You might only need to fold the cash over once too...since the leather would keep everything nice and protected. Great review, as always.

I have a couple of work colleagues I have gifted this wallet and they are all very happy with it. It's a great wallet for the price no matter what anyone says. Try it you will not be disappointed.

After more than 40 years of using wallets, I can say that this one has outperformed all the others. Of course it depends on the type of use you want to give. I prefer slim wallets, I ride a motorcycle every day and the I-Clip is very practical, even using it in the front pocket. I bought an I-Clip 7 years ago (yes 7 years) and it's only now time to get a new one. And the choice falls on, one more I-Clip without a doubt. As a slim wallet this is my favorite.

I purchased this wallet in May of 2020 (15 months ago) and I loved it until today. I dropped the wallet on a hard floor surface and it busted the corner the spring clip is molded from. I love the wallet and it has had a rough life but surprised me when it popped today from a simple drop to the floor from waist high. I love it so much I will order a replacement quickly that I hope last longer that the first. Great functionality but disappointed in the breakage.

I have had used several over 3 years or so. It's nice but the frame is thin plastic and it will eventually break on the corner. It lasts several months maybe even a year but after having 3 of these all break in the exact same way I'm done buying them. Cool product but needs a sturdier frame. Leather is also a legacy product. Time to move into 2022.

Yes! You did it! I suggest trying MCpocket Air. It is made in Austria also works in a similar way utilizing high tech plastic and clip. I went back and forth between I-Clip and Air, but the durability tipped me into Air direction. It is very strong (I cant see how I could break it unless I was set to break it) and it works great, though cash is not covered and it is not just as easy to use. The concern of breaking a 45€ wallet was just too much for me to ignore. I am not sorry for my decision, but I gotta say that I-Clip due to use of leather looks better (personal opinion) though Air does look pretty nice too. The texture on the plastic looks like carbon fiber. I wonder if I-Clip could be made from metal and just made for less cards, like 6 instead of 10 or 12. Options could be nice I guess.

Awesome review Mark - I've watched it twice back to back to be sure! I'm very biased as I love this wallet, but I think it's probably your best review ever! You've highlighted the strengths so well too- it does have to be plastic as metal would never keep its flexibility. When folks complained it broke, that was an earlier version from well over 2 years ago and the issue has been resolved according to the great people at i-clip. It's still by far the easiest t to use wallet with the highest, easy-access capacity and smallest footprint of any of my 35+ collection now. Even folding the money is made easy by the very nature of the insertion...it kind of does it for you almost. I've had mine for 6 months - I can't see anything beating it! Obviously I'd like to have seen it get a couple more points - maybe a full carry test is in order? Thank you so much for this great review Mark!

Hey Mark.. big fan, but still waiting for you to review "Conceal Plus".. for only $30 on Amazon, really an excellent wallet on all levels.. and the thing I think is MOST important is the cash folding! Your sitting at a table and folding cash is seemingly not a big deal.. thirds/fourths, etc... However, in real life situations, you're at a store counter, buying coffee, a line behind you..and who wants to have to fold up cash and try to stuff it all in different minimalist wallets? this conceal plus design negates the folding issue and is in an incredibly small footprint.. i carry 6 cards in the popup, two cards in inside flap, drivers license in the other, and most important, no cash folding required.. that said, absolutely love watching the videos and seeing all the brilliant ways people come up with design.. keep em coming, I'll keep watching..

Ok, I have to tell you, yes I am a fan of this wallet. I have 2 already. And will plan on getting other leather colors as well. I have a total of 7 or 8 wallets and I must say this I-clip is what I only use 100% all the time. I rotate between the 2 I have. I’ve dropped them. I wear it on my back pocket, sit on them most of the times. I just truly enjoy the i-clip way more than the other wallets I have. No problems now we put on the notes/cash in the clip. I actually enjoy doing it lol. Taking cash out from it feels just as good too lol. Anyways don’t want to sound like a fan boy but I do love this wallet. Works for me 100%. I do however keep looking for other wallets lol. Which is why I love this channel 👍🏻. Thank you for reviewing the I-clip

Superb Wallet... I initially thought the same as yourself that it was cheap but with the composite plastic type materials keep it very light in your pocket. I also found a coin tray that fits in with the Cards online but didn’t feel I used it much plus it added weight to the wallet so took it back out bc of it. I would recommend it and found especially handy on holiday/vacation when you don’t want to carry much cash etc. I’m currently using the Bellroy Note Sleeve which I love the feel of and quality. But I like to alternate them and still use my iClip. Nice Review. 😎👍🏼

The Minimalist Wallet trend used to be geared toward simplifying what you're carrying. But I believe I've seen it shift to a new paradigm. The new Minimalist Wallet trend is to offer more features, use the cheapest materials possible and charge a premium, thereby increasing profitability for each unit sold. This is evident because of the usage of cheaper materials like nylon, plastic and cloth like ribbon, even fancy looking rubber bands. We used to tease my grandfather for wrapping a rubber band around his wallet. But somehow, it is trendy now, what gives? In many cases they use the smallest amount of premium materials (leather, metal, carbon fiber) possible to justify the price. I guarantee you that this wallet costs less than $10 to produce, but they're selling it for $35. Yikes! But, as always, awesome review! I watch the reviews even though I'm not ready for a new wallet yet! The product doesn't merit, nor do justice, to the great review afforded to it!

Upshot is that the main marketing person was I able to reach from Germany told me that they'll start personally shipping internationally (to US among others) some time in the first quarter of 2021. The sister site in Switzerland just jumped ahead of them when I also talked to one of the people there, that's all. They literally connected internationally one day later and then they replied to me that purchases to the US is now possible. I guess there is a demand now over here.

Its a crap wallet, avoid it. This review is also misleading due to the fact they took just 5 minutes to make it. What happens is that over time the action of sliding your cards in and out will wear the signature strip out on the cards where they rub on the adjacent cards raised numbers. Usually this occurs right in line with where the 3 digit security code is on the signature strip making it unreadable. Its a cheap looking thing too…. Had mine for a year now and am binning it in favour of something more traditional, maybe a belroy instead.
