Badge Holder with Zipper

This is my second purchase in 2 years of this badge holder. I purchased this for my son's work as an intern and after he came home, he loved it so much, he continued to use it as his wallet. He is returning for a second internship so I purchased another one so it is fresh and new and will look nice since he has to wear it around his neck but I'm sure he will keep it again as a wallet.I was surprised it held up like it did as he kept his work ID, his driver's license, his room key, debit card, and a few dollars in the zipper compartment. This little badge holder held so much more and it never came apart. It fits easily in his pocket when he doesn't have to wear it on his neck. It was made well because I figured it would have been trashed after his year away, using it everyday, but it held up another year. It ended up being a great value for the amount of time he used it and how he has abused it. Hoping the second one serves him as well as the first.

I searched and searched for a badge holder that had the features I wanted - affordable, slim profile, multiple card slots, zipper pocket, no snaps or flaps, leather-ish…I decided to order this one, knowing the first test would be when I got it:Is it made well, durable, and sturdy with quality materials and stitching? YESWould it fit my cards (one ID and 4 other cards) and allow me to remove them easily? PERFECT FIT, EASY IN AND OUTIs the loop to attach the lanyard securely attached to the badge holder, allowing me to not have to worry about it falling off unnoticed? YESWill it bend out of shape if I put more than one card in each card slot? NO - I ADDED MORE CARDS JUST TO SEE HOW THEY FIT AND I HAD NO ISSUESIs the zipper pocket big enough to fit a few cards or folded money? DEFINITELYIs the zipper well-made and opens and closes with ease? YESI was satisfied with my purchase and took it to work to wear on my work lanyard - the true test is constantly using it. (I do not use the leather lanyard that came with it because I wear flair on my work lanyard and did not want to puncture the leather lanyard, but the lanyard is also very well made.)It has held up amazingly. I have to take one particular card out frequently at work, and it slides in/out of the card slots easily - even one-handed. I have 2 different security badges that you tap on the reader outside a door, and the materials of the badge holder did not interfere with my work’s badge reader (this is highly subjective, because another place’s badge reader may use different technology, but it worked without issue at my job). It hangs well and moves freely when needed. I also have a set of badge cards I must use that hang behind my badge holder (both clipped on the same lanyard), and the badge holder did not interfere with those items.TLDR: This badge holder is amazing. I can’t find anything wrong with it. I want to order 2 more: one to use as a temporary “wallet” for things like trips to ball games or amusement parks where I don’t want to carry my purse wallet, and another one to have as a backup - not that I expect this one to fail AT ALL, but because it always seems like when I find something I LOVE, I can never find them in stock again! HA!What are you waiting for?? This is your sign. Buy this badge holder! You won’t regret it.

I purchased this back in Dec 2022 when I started my new job. I needed to carry around my ID badge as well as business cards to give to clients. This has held up beautifully and is perfect for my needs. I keep my photo ID badge in the clear front pocket and I'm able to use the RFID scanners at work without taking my badge out. I go through a ton of business cards and the zippered section is perfect for keeping a nice supply on hand. I use the open slots on the back to keep cards with various info I want to have handy. I keep 2 pens on the small loop at the end, and now it's just muscle memory to reach there and grab one when I need it. I'll probably go ahead and grab another one of these lanyards just in case they stop making them!Edit: Oct 27, 2024: This badge holder is still going strong almost 2 years later. However, the small loop at the end finally snapped off. This is very much my fault, however, as I was fumbling around in my back seat while in the front seat and it got caught on something as I spun back around. I continue to use it daily anyway, and just clip my pens onto the strap itself, but I finally came to replace it. I don't think my work ID has left thing since I started. Speaking of, I read another review that mentioned difficulty with RFID readers. That has not been my personal experience, and I use mine at various county locations on dozens of readers without issue.

snap will break if it gets caught on anything. Can be used without the snap. there are several pockets for credit cards and ID's I use mine as a wallet. had to replace the snap with a ring from a keyring when the snap broke off. I keep my Drivers License behind my corporate ID, and it's really hard to get it out sometimes. There is a zippered compartment where you can keep some cash, but change will fall out and fly everywhere if you're not real careful. Two stars for durability because the snap broke. but the rest of the badge holder is holding up well. Two stars for sturdiness, because, again, the snap is certainly no robust enough. but overall value is good. the snap has been broken for about a year and the rest of the badge is holding up, but the lanyard is beginning to lose stitches and unravel.

Well constructed-ID and other cards fit well-zippered pocket perfect for more secure storage. It shows quality of workmanship and is a great value for the money. I don't use the key part, so no rating possible for that. Friends have raved about mine, and I've passed along the link. They are happy with their purchases as well.

Perfect for my little girl, it's great for keeping her ID, the color is the same as the photo, spectacular
