Catastrophic Failure: Month 8
I loved this wallet. It’s slim and relatively well built. Relatively.This wallet was perfect until month 8. Then every closed seam popped. See pictures; all of those seams are on the “closed” end of the wallet.I contacted the seller to take advantage of the warranty. They quickly replied not to worry and to send my address. I have not received a response since sending my address or following-up to ask if they sent it. It has been 3 weeks.If they responded, this would be 5 stars. Instead, I just ordered a competitor’s product.I will update if mfr responds, I promise!

Great, low profile wallet!
I really love this wallet. I was replacing a worn out traditional folding wallet, which my cards fell out of, and it was too bulky. I looked at few different ones on here and went with this one. It’s awesome. Slips into my front pocket, it’s lightbweight, holds all my cards. I only carry four. I really like the favorite card slot. I can easily access my debit card using one hand. It has a clear window ID slot. It has two slots for cash or a biz card, etc. it’s great not carrying a bulky, big wallet. It’s very well made too!

AMAZING Customer Service and Product
Buffway offers a 12-month free replacement guarantee... Because I over-stuffed the pockets, my wallet started to rip literally a year & a month after I purchased it. EVEN THOUGH I WAS PAST THE WARRANTY/REPLACEMENT DATE, BUFFWAY STILL REPLACED IT FOR ME!Amazing product, amazing company, and AMAZING customer service.

False Advertising, NOT RFID PROOF
The media could not be loaded. I like the slim design and the price, but I really hate false advertising. It is not RFID proof. I can still unlock doors with my scanning card from the oppisite side of the wallet. No part of this wallet has any RFID protection.

After way too much research I chose this for a European backpacking trip, so I could leave my fat old overstuffed wallet at home. This thing swallowed numerous credit cards, work id, driving license and cash, and I'm still checking every ten minutes as my pocket feels weird without that familiar bulge in it. I'm converted and don't think I'm going back to the "classic" wallet after the trip.

Super thin minimalist wallet, but durable and well made.
Just what I was looking for. It shipped in a bubble pouch mailer, it was so thin I could barely feel it inside the pouch. The quality is excellent, nice light brown color calf leather and well stitched. Easily holds 10 cards, has 2 money pockets and drivers license holder. Holds cards snug. The cutout on bottom of 1st card pocket aids in removing card by pushing it up. Excellent minimalist wallet, it is thinner with all my cards and money than my other wallet empty! Great for front pocket carry. I wear athletic shorts in summer that don't have back pockets, so this works for me.

Outstanding customer service!
I purchased this wallet to replace on older slim money clip I had.When I first received it look great however I noticed it had a very small scratch mark and a very small piece of the leather torn. Now this is where they have absolutely outstanding customer service, first when it was delivered I automatically got an email from a customer service rep James asking how I liked it or if I had any problems, I explained everything and he instantly offered to send another one out to me with expedited shipping. He was very quick to respond and it was an entirely hassle free process. I also got automatic follow up emails from the owner of Buffway asking if everything was ok.When I received the new wallet everything about it was perfect, the leather looked great and I didn't see any bad stitching. I have attached pictures showing the wallet it has 4 cards along with my ID being hidden behind the thank you tag) and some bills. I feel you can probably store 8 cards with relative ease but it would be a tight fit with 12. I paid the regular price $9.99 for it and feel satisfied for what I got. I will update the review in time to see how it holds up to everyday usage.

Warranty’s a scam
I loved this wallet up until the point it started falling apart. It’s only been a few months, so I thought I could use the warranty. I’ve been trying to obtain the warranty exchange, but no luck. The warranty was a huge selling point for me, so that’s pretty frustrating.I’ll keep this review at 1-star until someone fulfills a warranty request.

Great product BUT...
I really like the style of the wallet and will buy a second one. I removed one star because it does not hold it's main claim, which is to block RFID signal. I can scan my work pass, from about twenty cm away, even when using the opposite side (not the windowed one) of the wallet. Same thing with my bus pass and TD debit card. My cards get read from inside the wallet, every.single.time. Do NOT buy this wallet for the RFID properties, only for the look and minimalist design.

Better siatica-wise and security
Was advised by my osteopath to stop carrying my bulky old wallet in my back pocket as it was causing sciatica. Bought the Buffway and felt loads better siatica-wise. Also surprised to find I carried so much rubbish in my old wallet I did not need. Also feel a lot more secure with Buffway in my front pocket as opposed to feeling worried about being pickpocketted or simply loosing it.

Brilliant bit of kit! So well thought out. Love it!
I have 7 plastic cards in mine, plus folded cash plus about 5 cardboard cards (RSPB, personal cards etc) = everything I need.Small, light and slim. Brilliant!

Nice change from thick wallets. (Further edit: Poor RFID protection)
Nice thin wallet fits easily in a hip pocket and won't require a chiropractor after sitting on it for an hour. Doesn't hold all my cards but it does nicely hold the ones I actually need in my wallet.I thought I'd check how good the RFID protection (as advertised) works. I left my credit card in the wallet and tapped it at a restaurant. The payment went through and it shouldn't even have read the card. In fact, I found out later, it didn't read my credit card, it read my bank debit card which was two cards below my credit card, in the middle of my wallet. I think there is no RFID protection at all in this wallet. Still, I wouldn't send it back because it is a good slim, inexpensive wallet, but I can't give it 5 stars because it is not as advertised.

Good, thin wallet
Everything fits well, a bit tight but not too tight. Holding 5 credit cards, 2 ID cards, a couple of small receipts, and 5 cash bills folded in half - all that and still pretty thin. Quality seems very good, no issues after 3 weeks of daily use.
