Allett Travel Wallet Review by Outen the Lights
EDC YouTuber Outen the Lights recently shared his experience with the Allett Travel Wallet (Leather Edition), describing it as a piece of gear that feels "pretty high-end while remaining pretty affordable" (3:14). Having previously reviewed Allett’s sling bags, he was excited to see how their signature slim design translated into a dedicated passport carrier.
He focused on the wallet’s thin profile, noting that it provides enough organization for travel documents without the excessive bulk found in traditional travel organizers. From the feel of the Nappa leather to the internal layout, the review highlights the wallet as a straightforward, functional choice for keeping travel essentials in one place.
Materials and Build Quality
Outen the Lights broke down the specific materials that contribute to the wallet's slimness. The exterior is made of top-grain Nappa leather, which he noted "feels really nice" (3:50), while the interior uses bluesign® certified ripstop nylon to keep things lightweight.
The reviewer pointed out that the wallet comes in seven colorways and two material options, all featuring RFID protection (3:18). He also mentioned that the black leather version retails for $66 (3:26), positioning it as a solid mid-range option for those who want leather without a massive price tag.
Pocket Layout and Capacity
The main draw of the Travel Wallet is its ability to hold larger items while staying flat. The presenter demonstrated the internal capacity by loading it up with several items:
-
Cards and Cash: Multiple card slots (4:13) and a half-width pocket for bills (4:24).
-
Documents: A full-width pocket (4:31) designed to hold a plane ticket (5:35) without folding it awkwardly.
-
Travel Tools: He showed that a passport (4:40) and a small notebook (4:51) fit easily, along with a dedicated slot for the Allett Micro Pen (5:05).
Overall Impression
The reviewer appreciated that even with a passport and cards inside, the wallet maintained a "really nice" thin profile (3:53). He concluded the overview by stating that "everything fits really well" (5:57), making it a practical solution for anyone looking to consolidate their travel carry.
