Distil Union

 

Distil Union is truly a 21st century business. Started in 2011, this union of a couple men and women located in Charleston, South Carolina decided to distill (see the play on words here?) the essentials of minimalist design down and apply it to their wallets. True to this new age of social media, they utilized the crowd-funding site, Kickstarter, to fund most of their initial budget. Not only did they meet their goals, but also they often surpassed them by as much as 800%! People were obviously ready for their wallets! In 2015 they took a big leap and moved out of the apartment of one of the founders and into a studio in downtown Charlestown. Since then their design and philosophy of ‘the customer comes first’ has been gaining momentum. You can check out their products of wallets, phone cases and accessories online! Next we’ll do a quick overview of their most popular products.

This wallet offers the high quality materials and design standard to Distil Union wallets. It offers the classic foldable wallet look, but in a more slim design. This wallet can hold both your money and cards and still fit in your front pocket. The few drawbacks are that there are only three-color schemes available for this option. Another drawback is that this wallet may not be as slim as desired since it is a bifold wallet.

Review of Destil Union’s Sleeve Wally

 

This wallet is ideal for the businessman as it acts primarily as a cardholder, both for credit and business cards, but can also carry a few bills. It only features one pocket, so it is very slim and also features ‘FlexLock Technology’ which ensures that your cards and money don’t fall out.

In therms of the price, theis wallet is surely affordable. It only features one pocket, so it is very slim and can easily and comfortably fit in a front pocket. This stylish design is great for business cards. Also the FlexLock Technology ensures that your cards will not fall out and get lost. You can even shake the wallet and your cards will stay snuggly tucked into the pocket.

 

Since this wallet only features one pocket it does not offer space for many bills and cards. This may be a positive thing depending on your preferences. Another drawback is that this wallet is longer than most wallets, so it may feel awkward in your pocket.

A close look at the Bifold Wally

 

The Bifold Wally features a bifold design with two exterior pockets that can hold up to six cards each. It also features a ‘Wally Pull Tab’ that allows you to gain access to the contents of the wallet with no hassle. This wallet features a money clip rather than the standard money pocket found in most bifold wallets. This clip allows up to 30 bills to be held compactly with no bulky storage or feel.

The pros of this wallet are many. The high quality material and stitching ensures that this wallet can last a lifetime. This wallet is like a clown’s car: it may not appear to be big or bulky, but it can sure store a lot of cash and cards. Some drawbacks of this wallet are the lack of organizational possibilities. There are only two pockets and a money clip, which limit the possible arrangements. You can read more about this wallet in the article ‘Best Slim Wallets’.
