I'm home and put all my cards in it - it is perfect! It even fits my small rewards cards and keys inside, if they're not on the attached key ring, without straining it so I can use it as a bag charm without having my keys hang out. Plus, there's room for cash if needed!

I'm so glad I went ahead and purchased this. I almost passed because the canvas doesn't like up perfectly on the bottom. But it was the only Mono cles they had in store, and I didn't feel like waiting or going back so I went ahead. The sides do match up pretty well, and I figured that I'm probably never going to be really looking/inspecting the bottom of it.

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for, and I'm thrilled! :biggrin:

Great choice! Congrats! My mono clés is my most used item besides my key holder. The clés fits numerous cards which is great for grab and go! My key holder only holds my keys so I think you made a fantastic choice!

I loved my 6 key holder. It worked so well. Now sadly I have too many keys for it to work but I used it daily for 2 years. A favorite piece of mine. I agree with others wishing the cles was a tad larger.

I feel like I have been debating this for weeks and I just cannot decide which makes more sense for me. I want a new wallet, and I don't want my keys to scratch it up, so I was thinking I needed a key holder. But I already have the pouch and I feel like I don't need both of them. I know for quick outings I can stash an ID or card in the holder....so now I'm thinking that one makes more sense.
Any prefer one over the other....or do you use both?
 
Depends if you're going to put your car key fob in them.
I know some key fobs (like mine) are quite bulky and so can cause either the pouch or the key holder to stick out.
Some people don't like that, while others like me, don't care.

I have the 6 ring key holder for my car fob and keys. Have never had any issues with the key holder itself. Sometimes the pressure on my car key fob does make the trunk open up in the back (as I have said in another post). But I have learned to just not put pressure on it.
I like the snap button closure of the key holder. It is fast and easy. Can't be bothered with a zipper haha.
However, I am not a pouch person in general. I don't have pouches or pochettes for anything really. (no coin pouch, nothing to put my lipsticks in, etc.)

Hope that helps!
 
I find myself using the key holder more than the key pouch. I would love to get my hands on the other 6 key holder. I would wish their was
more materials/colors offered too.

Lately I been using my mahina key pouch. I love using it for quick errands or just take it with daily. I love the size and I don’t mind the key fobs dangling.

I always use both at the same time. 6-key for my house keys (I have four, but I prefer the space and size of the 6-key) and my car key attached to a key pouch, with cards and other small misc items inside.
 
I love my 6 ring key holder because of the way it functions. I find it so handy to be able to leave one key sticking out the top so it’s easy to access the next time I need my keys. For example when i arrive home i leave my house key sticking out, and when i leave the house again it’s already ready to go. I feel like that’s harder to do with the key pouch.
 
I have both. I prefer the key pouch. They key holders seem to always have glazing problems especially at the pressure points. I bought one earlier this year and used it for about four months when the glazing started to lift and peel where it bends. I took it back to LV and they said it was wear and tear and that it would cost me $120 to do the reglazing. I said no thanks and purchased the key pouch instead. I've had no issues with it.
