Product Review: Leather Passport Holder

If you've read my past posts you'd know I favor leather goods and accessories. So when I saw this passport holder from Booths Republic on Facebook I've decided to order one. Mind you, it's a hard choice since I prefer oily pulled leather than brightly colored types but given tgen have an option for a red one, which I like, I decided to try it.

They have 2 types of passport holders, one for 4 pax and can hold up to 8 passports and one foe 2pax which can hold 4 passports. I was iffy with how the passports were arranged on the bigger 4pax one that when it came out a couple of mobths back I really wasn't interested. I felt there's a chance when closing it that the top part would get messed up folded. Anyway, good for me cos the smaller version came out recently.

The holders come in 3 colors - black, blue and red. Names can be embossed inside for free. Embossing on the cover though comes with a fee. Nice touch if you're really into personalizing your things.

So approximately 2 weeks after ordering the items (note I did order other personalized items) I received my passport holder neatly tucked in it's own box.

The leather is soft to the touch. As mentioned, all 4 of our passport fits - 2 for me and 2 for my kiddo. There's are 2 slots foe cards and a pen holder. It also has slota underneath the passport holders for other papers, IDs or documents (you need to fold them though).

I definitely love the red color and the embossed names!

Product Review: Ni'qua

Anyone who knows me is privy to my love of bags. As I got older I put value on materials more than brands. I would rather have a bag that would last me several years than something that would start to peel, unravel or color bleed after a few months.

My search brought me to leather goods and found a good alternative to the already established brands that are quite expensive - Ni'qua. They have online presence in FB and IG but also have regular pop-ups around Metro Manila, plus they would sometimes open their physical store somewhere in Marikina for blitzes.

You can have your bags personalized - color, texture, lining, straps. They have recently also offered shoes and sandals. You should check out their website for their products.

Ordering and paying for my item was quick and easy with the help of paypal. Delivery took a few days but nothing worrisome. The bag itself is of good quality leather and I have had it for more than a year now and still looks brand new.
