Dimensions & Weight:
The Magnetic Passport Wallet is available in one size. Various pockets hold a Passport, large foreign bills, coins, an AirTag, and other small items. Loose travel documents can be inserted in the center and clasped together with the strong magnets.
This massively simplifies getting through the airport. There are plenty of pockets and they are all easy to get to and grab what you need and replace what you don’t. The magnetic clasp holds your boarding pass and other loose items securely without tearing them or having them get in the way. Beautiful to look at, light, and perfectly sized. I am going to get one for every member of my family.
I had this on my Christmas list, but Santa didn’t bring it. So, I got it for myself and am really happy I did. I haven’t used it yet but plan to on an upcoming trip. I think I will feel very relieved to know where all the important stuff is and that will ease any worries. I have put everything in it and have done my best to “pretend” use it until I really do. I think it is great and, like all the items I have purchased from Waterfield, it shows careful and compact design with excellent craftsmanship. Very happy with my purchase.
Beautiful products, arrived quickly. Even better than expected.
Maiden trip with my new mag passport wallet last week. On paper it is the ‘one’. However a few implementation details put it into the ‘functional but lacking’ category. 1st and foremost are the zippers. They are stiff and big. The opening are too small to quickly get at passports, cards, cash. They should be lightweight nylon the open more fully (cards need to be angled to get in/out). Passport barely gets through the opening and you chafe your fingers on the zipper. Frankly velcro flap would likely work better.
The exterior passport pocket is fine for a single passport, but I travel with my wife and it barely holds 2 of the thicker passports, A pleated pocket would have been better.
The interior ‘cash’ pocket it not wide enough to accept unfolded US dollars. Folding adds thickness which goes in the wrong direction.
On the + side the magnets are genius.
A few tweaks and it would be an unapologetic 5 *’s
The passport holder was a disappointment . Unlike a typical water field product it looks cheap and poorly made.

A pair of rare earth magnets keeps this passport travel wallet closed so all your documents stay neatly together at all times. With your passport zipped up in the exterior pocket and large foreign bills secured in an internal pocket, having all your travel documents in one place gives you peace of mind.
Your travel passport wallet is made of X-Pac® laminate that can weather the elements as you travel to different time zones around the globe. In addition to this, a full-grain leather panel in the center of the wallet adds a touch of class to its aesthetic.
We also use X-Pac® on all our X-Air Collection for its durability and light weight.
Your passport travel wallet is slim enough to fit in your jacket pocket, or in the pocket of your bag. It stays lightweight even with coins, an AirTag, or small gadgets, and the magnets do a great job of organizing loose documents.
We're proud to offer American-made gear built for the long haul. All our products are designed and made in our San Francisco workshop, where rent is high, labor expensive, and competition intense. We wouldn't go anywhere else.
