 Could not have lived without it! Jul 08, 2006
By Kathryn Farnsworth
"kathryn32"
We went to Prague and my mother bought two of these for us right before we left. I was concerned by the reviews so when they arrived I turned it inside out and went over the cord several times with a needle and thread. Because we were carrying our plane tickets, passports, cash, credit cards, ID, and basically anything of importance I bought two lenths of tan ribbon and made an additional "safety net" cord on each. The original cord is only held in place by one thread so that should definitely be improved upon.
We had no problems with the zippers, although the pulls are a little small, but noticed some minor fraying (nothing anyone would notice) as we were returning.
We spent 7 full days in Prague and two days flying. These things made life so much easier. No purse, no wallet, no thefts. I wore it under my clothes once and then wore it slung over one shoulder diagonally across my front the rest. This way there was no play in the cord and wearing it backwards (zippers facing the body) make it practically impossible for someone to touch it without me knowing. There is an outside, open pocket on the back but it is really deep. Still I would only keep things of minor value in there like coins. The small pockets on front at the bottom were perfect for credit cards and business cards of people we met and wanted to reach. The large zip inside pocket has a plastic bag that comes with it. We don't know if it was supposed to stay in or not but we used it for tickets and passports in case we got caught in the rain or whatever to keep it dry.
There are others out there but I can only say that this little slip of silk helped my time in the Czech Republic so much easier. If the little flaws were tweaked it would warrant a full 5 stars.

 not durable May 21, 2006
By Missy
The string broke off before my plane landed. The zipper broke off. The adjustable string didn't stay the length I chose because the string was too slippery.

Neck wallet Feb 25, 2006
By Stormy
This item worked well on our trip. It has handy pockets for a passport, tickets, money, & credit cards. It has an adjustable neck strap. It is slim, lightweight & washable. It can be worn on the inside or outside of a shirt.

 Redesign of zipper required May 10, 2006
By Lisa Bertolini
Item is made of durable material and the pockets are amply sized. Unfortunately, the zipper pull is very small and broke with the first travel use.

 best of its type Mar 16, 2007
By M. Wren
This is less noticeable under my shirt than most neck wallets, but still has enough pockets to keep credit card, ATM card, money, and passport separate and easily accessible. I've tried a variety of neck wallets, and like this the most. Like all the others, to avoid being obvious, it must be worn under a shirt and undershirt.
