Review: In love with Urby Men's Slim Wallet
I reached home earlier this week to find an elegant Men’s Slim
Leather Wallet from Urby
waiting for me. The brand sent it for review a month back but since I was away,
only now did I get hold of it. I would say it’s in perfect timing for the
birthday and right when my old wallet had started eyeing its doomsday.
The wallet came encased in a drawstring bag which was
further stored in a box for protection. The company does take care of how it
delivers ensuring no damage to the product.
So often the products we receive on online purchases don’t
match the photos on websites. But this Urby wallet that I received- the Paul
Billfold Coin Wallet- looks exactly like it’s portrayed on the website. It has
a superbly classy look to it and I was immediately impressed on opening the
casing.
I asked for the Black Punch colour and the wallet came
personalized with my name embossed on it. It sure looks as premium as they
promised it would. Plus the fresh smell of leather adds to the feeling of
holding something first-class in hand.
The wallet comes with 2 interior currency pockets (something
that I consider really important so as to keep the notes segregated and which
most new wallets in the market these days seem to not have), 3 card slots, 2
slip pockets and a very necessary coin pocket. There isn’t a plastic
transparent pocket for passport photos like my old wallet but that’s okay
considering it never offered any functional use apart from holding all my
passport pictures since birth. :D
Even with all the pockets, the wallet doesn’t feel bulky in
the back pocket of my pants. It is handmade in premium leather and the effort
put into it is distinctly visible.
My old wallet has been in use for almost 5 years and the constant
travelling and everyday use has left it tarnished. But I loved its design and
hence wasn’t willing to do away with its comfort. Looks like finally there is a
new wallet that I am in love with that can take its place. I just hope this new
one remains as good as it looks right now over months of use. Urby gives a
one-year material and craftsmanship guarantee which means they will repair it
for free within a year, so that’s one worry sorted.
The best part perhaps is that the wallet or any of the other
Urby products don’t come too heavy on the pocket (thanks to their direct
manufacturing-selling process). If you are eyeing to buy a new slim wallet in the
coming days do take a look at their premium but affordable collection.
Urby is a
direct-to-consumer, lifestyle and travel accessories brand. They design and
manufacture essentials for an urban lifestyle using the most premium materials
and finest craftsmanship. You can also check their wide range of slim-wallets, money clips, billfold wallets, and many more.

I had purchased an Urby Wallet.
ReplyDeleteThis review seems to be FAKE as my experience has been really bad with URBY.
Firstly their wallet sizes are too large & the leather feels cheap and the personalization done on the wallet feels so cheap and looks horrible.
Their wallets feel like the local shop wallet. PLEASE READ THE T&C CLEARLY before making a purchase. My Return was denied.
Seems like they have invested very well in marketing but overlooking the quality of the product & Service which will help them retain customers in a long term.
I'm sorry for your bad experience. I personally have been using this wallet for over a year now and it seems to be quite good. No issues yet :)
