  • It doesn't take a trip to the museum to experience these backdated behemoths. It's hard to fathom how in an ultra-fast tech age where everything evolves faster than lightning, men’s wallets sat unchanged for millennia. I cannot think of anything else that's so widely used and yet so deeply neglected. There was hardly any effort on the part of manufacturers to introduce new user-friendly features to the design or ambition to make it more fashionable. Men's wallet remained forsaken and it was what it was until the spring of 2014.

    The New Generation Of Men's Slim Wallets

    Towards the fag end 2010s men's wallets saw an uprising. New brands like GRID and Ridge led a movement with industry-shattering new styles that were smarter, sleeker, practical, and for a change - modern and sexy. This caused an overnight sensation. Other manufacturers found inspiration and got working on newer designs. Within a year the market was flooded with slim wallets of all shapes and sizes.

    The shift in men's wallet design has been nothing short of dramatic. It's been so sudden that many are still unaware of the benefits of these modern wallets.

    Slim Wallets Are More Secure Than Fat Wallets

    You would think that these bulky bifold wallets would at least house your wealth securely. No sir. They leave your contactless cards vulnerable to skimming. If you're not sure what skimming is, it's stealing personal details from contactless cards from a distance. And all it takes is a card reading gadget available to buy on eBay for a couple of hundred Benjamins.

    Modern slim wallets like GRID offer an impenetrable RFID shield that blocks all radio frequency signals, thus housing your cards safely and away from rogues. Other slim wallet manufacturers have followed suit and offered some kind of RFID blocking. .

    All RFID Wallets Are Not Created Equally

    Naive buyers are often not aware that many 'RFID blocking' wallets actually offer a weak shield that can be breached on closing in with a reader. Half of all modern wallets in the market now claim to have RFID blocking of some sort. Some are better than others.

    Wallets With An Impenetrable RFID Protection. TESTED.

    We tested a number of anti-theft slim wallets with RFID blocking. Reputed brands like GRID and Apple offered some of the strongest signal blocking. Slim metal wallets seemed to have the best protection because of the metal casing. Cards inside these metal wallets were unreadable even when placed directly on top of a card reader. This is the highest RFID protection that we have come across so far.

    Apple leather wallet came a close second with a solid shield that prevented all signals from reaching the card. We tried to make payment at stores with the card inside but the reader couldn't penetrate the slim leather wallet. Impressive for any leather cardholder.

    Slim Metal Wallets That Last A Lifetime

    I bet many of you didn't know that some metal slim wallets like GRID offer a lifetime guarantee. The construction is so robust that the manufacturers confidently offer an infinite commitment. This means you buy once only and secure your cards forever. The material is battle-tank solid, so you can take it on survival excursions or backpacking trips, put it through rough weather and water, and still take it to the boardroom meeting on Monday.
