Review on Bellroy Leather Hide and Seek Wallet: Men's Accessories and Wallets, Card Cases, and Money Organizers by Montez Parson

First of all this wallet looks very well folded. It has great features and appears to be made out of quality materials. BUT. The description makes some statements that either distort the truth or are completely false. #1, probably the most important, is the RFID blocking statement. I use the RFID badge to sneak into my work. I put all my old wallet stuff including the RFID badge in this Bellroy wallet and gave it a try. The RFID reader unlocked the door immediately. No delay, no weird holding or opening of a wallet for the reader to recognize my ID and open the door. I happen to be an engineer working with and developing RF technology, so I know a bit about it. MANY materials can interfere with radio frequency transmissions. Technically, they're not lying when they say it's made of a material that interferes with radio frequencies. I mean. Your HAND can interfere with HF. They are ABSOLUTELY misleading us by promoting this as a tool to prevent would-be thieves from using RF technology to read cards etc that you may have in your wallet. Be ultra thin and compact wallet. I hate things in my pockets. I've tried different types of "minimalist" wallets, and I've even gotten to the point where I only have a couple of keys on my keychain. I wanted to switch from a small Dockers wallet that can be found at any department store for less than $30 so I could downsize, improve quality and give a little thought to the extremely unlikely event that someone with a magic RF waves. Wand reader up my ass to steal info from every RFID chip in my wallet. I've moved 9 cards (ID, CC, insurance etc.) and 4 bills into this Bellroy and it's no thinner. In fact, it's about the same thickness and INCREASED length and width compared to my old cheap JC Penney wallet. All of this has been said. This thing feels REALLY comfortable and looks like it will hold up well. Just don't waste your money on the RFID version and don't expect your wallet thickness to magically halve when you upgrade to this version. When you have a ridiculously fat grandpa wallet with all those grocery store membership cards and a check from the last decade, they still don't fit. If you're buying this with the expectation that it'll just be a good wallet, then go for it, but look for a cheaper one that doesn't have RFID 'blocking'. I will be returning this as a matter of principle for false advertising.
