Attached securely to your belt by a thick security strap, the travel wallet slips fairly easily below your clothing, either inside your trousers or up inside your shirt. 25 cms in length, it folds in half with a firm velcro fastening. Opened out, it is evidently very light, but tough and secure, coming with a two year guarantee. To the left are three vertical pockets for credit cards, held by internal velcro strap. This makes for easy removal by its owner when the wallet is open. For bank notes there is a lengthwise slide compartment, beneath which is a further zip compartment. Coins can be contained in a mesh section to the right, although I question why one would add the weight and bulk of coins to the wallet.

Big test begins shortly with a planned visit to the souks of Turkey! I think it should be okay, as I'm a firm believer in shutting gates before horses escape. This wallet looks as if it will prove successful. (Written later) It wasn't. It's so comfortable I forgot I was wearing it! At the usual pre-flight check in I was asked to remove my belt, which I did. I forgot about the wallet until I was about to pay a taxi driver after being driven friom the Turkish airport to the hotel. The wallet wasn't there! It had obviously slipped out of my trousers and I was in Turkey with no cah. thankfully I had a credit card but the loss of some £400 was very unpleasant. The week In Istambul would have been perfect apart from this loss.

Good kit so far, although the (superflous) blue/yellow logo fell off within 24 hours.I am on my third version, because these wallets, like anything, eventually wear out (maybe the environment within my trousers is a tad hostile...).The basic design provides superb security. No self-respecting pick-pocket would dream of tackling such a difficult target.The velcro fastenings are the main weakness because they are naturally in constant use. One holds the wallet in 'folded' positon and another retains the credit cards in their 'slots'.I have never (over ten+ years of using these wallets) had a problem with the zip which holds the 'pocket' for currency and for my various cards after the aforementioned velcro 'gives up the ghost'.The 'ID'

Difficult to understand why there are so few wallets available that can be attached to your belt and hidden inside the front of your trousers like this one. I've used variations on this type of wallet for over 20 years, and although this one is new to me, I'm immediately at home with it.It is virtually invisible to people around, it's big enough to hold notes and cards, it's relatively easy to extricate and replace when you want to access it, it would be very difficult indeed to steal, and unlike conventional wallets you don't sit on it and damage your cards, nor do you risk losing it from a pocket.The material it's made from does help it slip easily in and out, and seems pretty strong.

This is the second Travel Blue secret sliding wallet. I bought it to travel to Florida and know that my cards and money would be secure. Previously I used a leather double sided zip up wallet that went in my trouser pocket secured with a loop on my belt.I found that the Travel Blue worked extremely well, and it is only 4 years later that I have needed to replace it. It has worn where the cards sit in their pockets, the velcro failed and has been replaced, and I fitted a pop stud to the folding velcro to give it additional closed safety.The replacement wallet, is slightly larger than the original, making the storing of paper money easier. The loop that fits on my belt means I cannot loose the wallet,

Initially purchase for a holiday in the Philippines and haven’t been yet but on initial inspection he product is as described. As others have pointed out it isn’t big enough to hold a European style passport but I don’t suppose it was designed for that.I did wear it for a few hours and forgot it was there so it is comfortable enough to stick down your trousers.It is what it is supposed to be, a hideaway wallet.

This wallet fits onto a belt so that it's always with you but very hard to be stolen. I've had several such products over the years and this is the best I've found to date. It takes a lot of items, holds them more securely than most, and is more durable than others I've tried. I particularly like the zipped compartments. However don't put credit cards in the non-zipped compartment otherwise they'll slide out.

I used this on holiday before writing this review - it did exactly what I wanted it do! Top marks for security - totally concealed and sturdily attached to the trouser belt. Also for comfort, I didn't know I was wearing it (tucked down inside my trousers. Easily held credit cards and money with two internal zipped pockets. Easy to take out and use.Well made and light weight.

wallet constantly during a four-week holiday around the Med, carrying cards/notes/coins without any difficulty and so heartily recommend it. Only time will tell if some of the other issues reported occur with the one I have bought but given how well it worked for me, I'd buy a new one for each holiday if I had to, but at present it looks sets for many years' use.

Bought this to replace something similar bought on the high street several years ago, which I had used almost daily, but now with failed zip and getting frayed in various places. The new one has more compartments than the old, but is more light-weight. After three months continuous use it shows no signs of wear - but will it last as long as its predecessor?

Blue travel is a good quality brand. I use their wallets when I go abroad because they are very slim in design to easily fit in your pocket without being noticeable. There is a belt loop to keep it securely fastened to you at all times. Lots of compartments and keeps moisture out. It's big enough to store your passport too.

I took this away just as a back up.However i found it so useful i used it all the time.Fairly sturdy construction with a belt loop that feels solid enough.It is slim and remains discrete enough to serve its purpose.The only fault i found was that the velcro fastening could have been wider but it still held fast.

I didn't expect a wallet to hold a passport - and it doesn't. It does hold everything else a wallet might, and does slip out of sight easily, though a little difficult to flip it out of hiding discreetly and very noisy to open (it's the velcro). At about 12 x 12.5cm it just fits in my jacket pocket.

Seems to be very good. It has zipped compartment and space for credit cards and few coins. It is well made and can be put in the waist belt and hidden inside the trousers and not very bulky. The zip is not that smooth but works well. I will see how it works when I go abroad.
