Trayvax Ascent Wallet, RFID Front Pocket Money and Credit Card Holder, Minimalist Slim Leather Metal Wallet for Men and Women, Black Mississippi Mud

Been looking for a way to slim my wallet down for awhile. Always heard good things about trayvax as a company and the products that they put out. Saw this Ascent wallet on here and had to have it. I got mine with the Mississippi mud with black frame and I gotta tell ya it looks damn good! I was able to take all my cards out of my thick bifold leather wallet and put them into this wallet with no issues.(7 cards+ 7 slips of cash) I did soak the wallet with cards inside for 10 min in a bowl of warm water though. Afterwards I dried it off with a blow dryer and once the leather was dry, I used some bick 4 conditioner to protect the leather. I then punched my own intitials into the back by the cash slot, because I saw no way to add an engraving on amazon. Came out looking great! Trayvax really knocked it out of the park with this wallet! Good quality saddle stitching, good horween top grain leather, and a melonite coated stainless steel frame with black oxide coated brass rivets. I’ve got my eye on their contour model next! This wallet perfectly disappears in my front pocket. Yes it is abit heavy for its size due to the metal frame, but I like that. Not only for the shear quality aspects of it, but in certain situations if you ever need a good defensive weapon, I suppose you can use it as a fist pack. You can probably use it as a hammer to drive small nails too! It’s that hefty and quality! Over all I’d highly recommend this wallet or anything else from trayvax if you’re looking to slim your dad wallet down.

So here's the deal... I've purchased probably 6-8 low profile wallets within the last 2 years. Everything from leather to Carbon fiber. High priced to cheap junk. I've only had this trayvax for a week but it keeps getting better with age. Still to early to give a full review but so far so good. When you first get it, it's tight. I mean real tight. Couldn't hold more than 3 cards. Now I have 6 and the leather is starting to stretch a bit. Quality is amazing, I mean seriously good leather, great stitching, solid build and great design. Feels great in my back pocket. The only negative is that I wish it held a few more cards but I knew it only held 6 when I purchased it. It's a true minimalist wallet: Drivers license, gun license, 2 PBA cards and 2 credit cards. For me... I don't need anything else. I would highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a leather pc that has amazing quality.

Good size and quality

I love it. It’s awesome. Better than expected and easier to retrieve my ID and credit card than my traditional wallet. Holds a bit of cash along with 6 cards relatively easily. The quick draw feature makes getting your ID and primary card a breeze. Made in USA - I will be buying more as presents for my nephews.

No regrets, this wallet is excellent! The steel frame and top grain leather, the thick hand stitching, the rivets, the pull strap, it's all top quality and hand made, just what I needed to help me stay minimal with what I put into a wallet. I followed the 10 minute soak instructions, inserted cards and cash, and let it dry overnight. It is holding tight but not to tight, the pull strap is smooth and makes card access super easy. I have the recommended number of cards inserted but exceed the cash carrying capacity, carrying 10 folded bills with no problems. I am super happy I went for this, even with the high price point. I figure I will never have to buy a wallet again!

This is a nice wallet that I wanted to love. However, it is simply too small for me. It holds six cards (including a driver license, LTC and health insurance card. So if you only have three more cards and don't carry much cash, then this is a good fit for you. It's very difficult to get the cards out if you force more into it. I tried to stretch it, but no luck. Four cards on each side is too much. It's well made, and it really is my favorite wallet up until now, but it's too small for me. If it held 10, it would be a five star product.

I really like this minimalist wallet. I’ve tried a few others including the Ridge and another Trayvax wallet and this one is by far my favorite. As others pointed out, initially the wallet is extremely tight and it’s difficult to get cards in or out. Soaking the wallet with cards for 30 minutes and then letting the wallet dry completely fixed this. Now I can easily get 7 cards in the wallet and they’re all accessible. Also this wallet feels bullet proof, and I’m betting it’ll last a long time.

Me encantó la cartera, la calidad de la piel real y gruesa, combinada con la placa central de acero, costuras muy fuertes, como se siente en la mano... y como se vé, ¡WoW! Si pudiera ponerle un "pero" sería solo que le caben pocas tarjetas, ojalá vendan en un futuro una un poco de mayor capacidad, yo suelo cargar entre licencia de conducir y diversas tarjetas de mi empresa y personales entre 9 y 12, no es un cambio mayor, usen el mismo diseño pero con 3 mm mas de piel por cada lado para que tenga mayor capacidad de tarjetas y sería perfecta.

Mega….. am Anfang etwas fummelig aber ist das Leder erst im form ist es der beste Cardholder den ich je hatte

I'm really not a fan of most of the minimalist wallets out there (I.e. The Ridge, Ekster, etc.). They aren't really my style; and I'm of the opinion that this whole trend of minimalist wallets costing more than 4 times what you'd pay for just an ordinary leather billfold is getting pretty out of hand. I mean, you're effectively paying a lot more for quite a lot less. And in this case, a slab of steel and some leather can't possibly be worth over a hundred dollars... can it? I'll be honest, I took a risk buying this wallet, and I discovered very quickly after receiving it that, yes, it was 100% worth it. The level of quality and craftsmanship put into it far surpassed any $20.00 leather billfold I'd ever owned... the leather was supple, yet durable. The steel was machined extremely well, smooth and without defect or sharp edges. The stitching and rivets were precise and sturdy. You will understand what I am on about if you end up buying one of these things. They just feel good. That's not even taking into consideration the very practical benefits I have experienced by NOT having space for a bunch of stuff in my wallet: Prior to making this purchase, my wallet was a bit of a rats nest. Useless old receipts, loyalty cards, business cards and other crap like that. Most of this stuff I barely ever touched. My wallet had just become a place where I put stuff that I am too lazy to throw away. But because The Ascent is effectively only good for a few cards and some cash, it helped me clean up my pocket clutter by forcing me to only take what I need with me. Credit card, Debit card, drivers license, a couple other important cards and some walking around money. That's it. Simple and easy. And I have not once missed having more space. I know I sound like I am putting this thing on a pedestal, but it truthfully has revolutionized my every day carry. The final thing I'll say here is that it feels good to support a business that doesn't outsource their manufacturing overseas. I like knowing that my money is going to people that don't believe in keeping their prices high but taking production offshore to save on costs and increase profit. There aren't enough places doing that nowadays and I truly appreciate it. So yeah... Long story short, this thing isn't for everyone, not by a long shot. But for the good few people out there that are looking to downsize their EDC and replace their old beat up piece of horse leather with a durable, sensible, and functional minimalist wallet, look no further. You will not regret it.
