Thank you very much, Ryan! That was very thorough and pointed out a lot of things that I didn't know or wasn't sure about. I think I'll try the wallet because I don't care for the really cheap one I have (thin pleather) and it sounds like this one will cover my needs while wearing well. It seems like a wallet that will really show character over time.
As for the journal and the messenger bag, I don't have the money for the bag, but the journal sounds nice. After I fill up my current notebook, I think I will be able to justify buying that one
Once again, thank you so much for the feedback. Also, tell Dan I said hi.
