The Leather Money Clip

Author Thomas | 22.08.2009 | Category Accessories, Apparel

I’ve used the same wallet for years.  The leather wore down to the fabric underneath in many places.  It was also a little bulky (not so much from cash but from extra storage space for cards).  I had the library card, bank cards, FedEx card (of all things), etc., etc., and it had an extra flap for a driver’s license and two other cards.  In other words, my old wallet was quite bulky.

I decided to try simplify and go for something new by trying a money clip.  I purchased the Dark Brown version on the money clip below and have liked it over my old wallet quite a bit because the money clip is more compact.

I do have to work a little bit to get some of the cards out, but as I really only use a couple of cards regularly, it isn’t that much of an issue.  Some day, I imagine, we’ll use our phones for credit transactions, identification, or perhaps our fingerprints, but until then, the good ol’ fashioned money clip works just great for me.

The Rustic Leather Money Clip can be purchased at Rustic Country Leather with free shipping (last time I checked).

SanDisk Sansa View Case 3-in-1 Kit (Armband, Case, Sleeve)

Author Thomas | 13.03.2009 | Category Accessories

The 3-piece case for the Sansa View is similar to the Sansa Fuze 3 in 1 kit we highlighted earlier.  We’ve tested both, and they both work great.

The Sansa View Case kit contains an armband for running/jogging, a hard-shell protective case for travel, and a leather-like sleeve for every day use protection.

The fit is tight on the View, but it holds it well in the armband and the harder outer case is good for travel or for storing earbuds.  The view case allows for easy access to the navigation wheel and is a lightweight option for carrying the view.  The Sansa View Case is a good multi-case for the View.

Sansa Fuze Case 3-in-1 Kit (Armband, Case, Sleeve)

Author Thomas | 05.07.2008 | Category Accessories, Electronics

A great case combination for the Sansa Fuze. Rising quickly in popularity, the Sansa Fuze is finding its way into homes across the world, but so far, there are not that many accessories for the mp3 player as many manufacturers focus on the Apple iPod. Fortunately, a few good accessories are out there.

The Sansa Fuze Case kit contains an armband for running/jogging, a hard-shell protective case for travel, and a leather-like sleeve for every day use protection.

We tested the Fuze in the case. It fits quite snug but still works great. The “hard-shell” case helps to protect the player if you toss it in your bag when on the go.

The sleeve works with the armband, so you can take it off the armband and still use the protective sleeve and also cuts down on space and material used.

The armband fits the device well, and because the Fuze is small, the armband and the Fuze together don’t feel like they weigh all that much on your arm. A video iPod on the other hand (or arm as the case may be) is more bulky and heavy to go jogging with compared to the Fuze (just FYI, the Sansa Fuze has an FM tuner in it so you can listen to the radio while you’re out and about).
