Many tactile wallets should take notes on the Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet, because that’s how you design Cool Wallets. And Dango didn’t sacrifice a good-looking wallet for the Best Tactical Wallet; it intersects both. You can see this by its veg tan Italian leather material for style and 20-card capacity for performance.

Why We Like It – Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet

If you frequently write notes to yourself, the Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet is your new best friend, due to its included pen and notebook, covered in a vegetable-tanned Italian leather.

Aesthetics

The Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet looks mighty fine with its Italian vegetable-tanned leather. It has a nice dark finish to it, with bold embroidery around the edges. This is how you utilize leather, not like the Trayvax Element with its strangely cut and undefined edges.

Durability

While the leather is appealing to the eyes, this is genuine leather we’re talking about. It needs special attention to prevent cracking and peeling; otherwise is susceptible to a short shelf life. What’s even more durable is the 6061 aerospace aluminum Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet Pen included in the deal.

Performance

The Dango P01 Pioneer Bifold Wallet is an interesting beast. It can handle twice as many cards as the Trayvax Ascent (up to 20 cards), a ban for money, and still have enough space to include a small notebook and pen. Everything will fit snug inside, and you can even expand on its carrying capacity by swapping out the notebook.

Size & Versatility

Despite carrying so much in one go, the Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet is relatively small, only measuring 4 x 1.5 x 6 inches in size. And yet, it’s incredibly versatile with its pen and notebook included inside. There’s even RFID blocking for protection and a multi tool you can order to carry inside as well.

Value

But now we have to talk about price, because the Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet doesn’t come cheap. There’s no doubting that it’s a stylish watch, which has its own roots in value. And as far as functionality goes, it will work great as a replacement to your old, bulky wallet. It’s still very expensive and may need some internal discussion before making the leap. If you can’t, fall back to the Magpul Daka Everyday Wallet for a fourth of the price.

Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet Wrap Up

It really speaks to how well the Dango P01 Pioneer Wallet functions as a wallet, and bonus points for doing it in style. How many wallets include a tough pen and small notebook, while still holding over a dozen and a half cards, plus money? And yet, all that’s hard to swallow is its price. Look past that and you won’t be disappointed.
