Review on Tabbed Men's Leather Architect Blocking Bifold Accessories by Major Genesis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Soft outer pocket with RFID protection!

This Architect leather wallet is made from a very soft leather outer material with RFID protection. But honestly, RFID blocking wallets like this product that offer protection from RFID skimming have a very limited chance of exposure. (RFID) is an electromagnetic method for transmitting small data bits over very short distances. It was originally used primarily for asset tracking, but since its inception it has evolved into all sorts of applications, including authentication, passports, ID cards, and credit cards. Just to name a few. The problem isn't that these products don't work, but that they are the solution to a problem that doesn't exist in the real world. RFID-related crime is not only unlikely, it is non-existent. In addition, second-generation RFID-enabled credit cards encrypt and secure the information they transmit, so you don't have to deal with RFID. This men's leather architect wallet features a bill compartment to keep your dollar bills safe and a fixed ID card pocket. oriented in portrait format, six credit card slots and 12 plastic credit card inserts. I personally hate those 12 plastic credit card strips as they completely ruin the look of an otherwise great wallet. Luckily, with a little brute force and careful undoing of the stitching, one or the other device can be pulled out of the wallet without major damage to the leather material. Once those 12 plastic credit card sheets are removed, the wallet is much more convenient to use. Pros: [+] Soft leather exterior. [+] Features a fixed ID pocket for securely displaying your government issued ID. [+] Features ample space for storing dollar bills. Reliable CONS:[-] 12 plastic credit card slots sewn into the middle of the wallet![-] Pull-tab closure mechanism (non-magnetic) so it's prone to damage in the long run. All in all, as long as you can live with a weak 12 plastic credit card, it's gone and in dire need of "RFID" protection. I'd say it's ok but not for a men's wallet as it fills all the credit card slots and the cash plus tab locking mechanism swells into a large wallet making it too uncomfortable. on the side to fit in the pocket of men's trousers. To be honest, this wallet design looks more like a small women's wallet than a men's wallet. Product description needs to be verified. Product rating with two stars!
