LL Bean Passport Organizer

The LL Bean passport organizer is a seemingly small affair that opens into a virtual travel toolkit. As a passport holder only, it's a little expensive because it's a lot more than that. Using this multi-featured travel accessory solely as a passport / ticket organizer is impossible, anyway; no sooner will you decide in which of the seven pockets to put your passport then you'll be filling the rest.

If you call it a travel wallet, however, the LL Bean passport organizer is almost perfect.

Pros

Cons

How do I love this passport organizer / travel wallet? Let me tell you the ways I used it on a recent trip.

Back open pocket - boarding pass, itinerary, maps
Front zippered pocket - passport (periodically - it floated), picture ID and coins
Inner "top" zippered pocket - folding money
Inner "lower" zippered mesh pocket - more coins, gum, personal stuff
Two pen sleeves - well... pens
Inner sleeve pocket - receipts, stubs, scribbled notes
Inner mesh sleeve pocket - travel journal
Inner ID sleeve - ID tag and hotel's / hostel's / tour director's business card
Six credit card sleeves - debit card, credit card and my business cards

The only question: with what do you fill your cargo pants pockets now?

Works well with:

• Nomad Travel Journal - trim back cover to fit in wallet's inner mesh sleeve pocket
