Bellroy Card Pocket: Surprisingly Practical
I try to pay using Apple Pay as much as I can. When it’s not possible or I have to show someone my ID or driver’s license, I always have Apple’s Leather Wallet with MagSafe on the back of my phone. And when that’s not enough and I need to pay in cash or use another card, I reach for my Card Pocket from Bellroy.

Small but incredibly versatile
Card Pocket a very small, leather zip wallet, that can hold a surprising amount of things. It’s so small that I can easily keep it in my front pocket. As far as I remember, this is my first zip wallet. I love the design of other wallets from Bellroy, but Card Pocket wins practicality-wise, leaving me worry-free when it comes to carrying all of those coins that Germans love so much. There’s a dedicated coin pouch on the back side of the wallet. It’s also a great place to store an AirTag. Nothing will slide out on its own due to the design of the zipper.

On the front side, you will find a low pocket that can be used to store cards or cash. I usually keep there a couple of paper stamp cards and a few bills folded in three. The back side also features a hidden slot for a nanoSIM card! The middle of the wallet is where I keep a few extra cards, like my health insurance or debit card. It can hold 15+ cards according to Bellroy.
