Hey it's Bey, and today I'm going to be reviewing the KYL Bifold Cardholder Wallet by Plain Supplies.
This wallet is part of The Everyday Wallet collection that has a total of four wallets
to fit everyone's needs.
These four wallets area currently on Kickstarter, so if you would like to back them, I'll leave
a link in the description.
These wallets come in Burgundy, Cognac, Navy, or Black and you can get them for up to 50%
off if you back them on Kickstarter.
The KYL wallet comes in a microfiber pouch that you can use to store the wallet when
you're not using it or use it to hold anything else that fits.
However, this is not the real box because I received this wallet in the middle of its
production, so the packaging is going to be different when you receive it.
The KYL wallet has a little larger footprint than other minimalist wallets that I've used
in the past, but it’s not too big.
There is nothing on the outside which gives the wallet a really clean and minimalistic
look, not even a logo which is really cool.
When you open the wallet, you first see the four card slots.
The card slots have this "smiley face" design that makes putting in and taking out cards
very easy and quick.
You can hold 10+ cards in this wallet but that may vary depending on how much cash and
coins you carry.
I personally carry 4-6 cards along with cash and coins.
I still use coins frequently so I really like it when wallets have dedicated coin pouches.
The KYL wallet has a lip that you can fold out so that you can easily access your coins
without them spilling out.
You can also use this pocket to store small items like keys.
The wallet does get pretty chunky when you have a bunch of coins that could get uncomfortable
if you put your wallet in your back pocket, but I put my wallet in my front pocket and
you should too.
There are a lot of benefits like no back pain and less of a chance of being pickpocketed.
Anyways, the cash slot is in the back of the opposite flap of the coin pouch.
It stores bills that are folded in half which is how I prefer to store my cash.
I'm not sure if it can fit taller bills from other countries because the U.S. bills are
pretty form fitting with this pocket.
This is a very premium wallet and it should definitely last a long time.
It's made out of vegetable tanned Italian full grain leather with RFID protection.
The stitching is very well done and there are no loose ends or rough edges.
Since this is a leather wallet, it will break in and form to fit your carry as time goes on.
I really love how clean the design is.
The only place you can find a logo on this wallet is inside on the bottom right corner
on one of the flaps.
That's it.
There are a couple of downsides to this wallet in my opinion but they are by no means dealbreakers.
This wallet can get really chunky and uncomfortable if you have a lot of coins and all of them
shift to one side of the wallet, but that is a given with all wallets that hold coins to be honest.
That can get solved though by shaking the wallet a little to even it out, but it can
get annoying at times.
Another thing is that the coin pouch isn't sealed.
I would prefer it if the coin pouch had a zipper or another secure way to prevent the
coins from falling out, but to be honest, I really like the lip that helps when looking
for which coins you need.
The only reason why I prefer if the coin pouch was sealed because I don't really like loose
coins falling out randomly.
Other than that, I really like this wallet and if you can get over these shortcomings,
I highly recommend it.
Overall, the KYL Bifold Wallet is an awesome, well rounded minimalist wallet.
You can hold all the essentials like cards, cash, and coins with no problem.
It's made very well and it should definitely last for a very long time as long as you take
care of it.
If you're the type of person who uses cash and coins frequently but want a clean, minimalist
wallet, this wallet is for you.
If this wallet doesn't fit your needs, there are other wallets that you can choose from
in The Everyday Wallet collection by Plain Supplies.
As always, I'll leave a couple of links in the description to their Kickstarter campaign
and website if you're interested.
Throughout the video, I was wearing this bracelet.
It's called the Ron Bracelet by Plain Supplies as well and I really like it.
If you want to check it out, I'll also put a link in the description if you're interested.
Stay tuned if you want to see a video of me talking about this bracelet in more detail
along with their Blackout 40 Minimalist Watch.
