WARNING: TRANSIT/GARAGE CARDS CAN BE VERY DEMANETIZED!

I still encourage people to try this product. Just remember this cautionary notice to avoid electronic loss. A really great wallet/clip hybrid, especially if it's been hacked and cards are easier to get out of the three side clip slots. According to the ads, the thing holds the usual amount of bills and a large wad quite well. I like the wallet feature for storing receipts and extra cards. However, the downside of such a strong magnet is that flimsy cards with magnetic strips (like NYC MTA cards, garage tickets, etc.) remain useless and any money or information stored on the card may be lost. This happened to four of these cards of mine at two types of dealers, both in towns 150 miles apart, proving that this cannot be a card malfunction. Prior to degaussing, cards were held by the side of the clip or in the clip's pockets. But I love this thing enough to buy a subway map and test storage theory. Good news: The only way I've found to prevent this is to keep such cards in an open area of the wallet, on the side completely opposite the clip, and with a credit card and a couple of receipts that act as a magnetic buffer. The buyer is still buying. just be careful

Pros
  • Wallet with RFID protection: protects your important card information from theft. Blocks 13.56MHz frequency (credit cards, debit cards, driver's licenses and ID cards); DOES NOT block 125kHz. Minimalist and slim fits perfectly in the front pocket, a good choice to replace a bulky wallet
Cons
  • Not bad but...
