Review on FIDELO Carbon Fiber Slim Wallet by Percy Haulin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great wallet: wallets, card holders and money organizers

All my life I've carried a wallet in my back pocket and try to keep it thin so I usually double fold it. I've been wanting something thinner lately, so I started looking. Eventually I found this wallet and after reading some reviews I decided to give it a try. All in all, this is a very simple design. There are two pieces of carbon fiber and a rubber band. After almost a month of use I can say that the carbon fiber is not scratched and I carry it in the same pocket as my car keys. The elastic also holds my cards in place. It comes with 3 extra straps so I think that should last a while. To start with, I suggest removing the strap from two pieces of carbon fiber. Lay down a piece and put all your cards on top, then put another piece of carbon fiber on top. Finally, put on a rubber band. I've placed the credit card I use the most on top for easy access, but by sliding out and fanning out the cards it's very easy to select others that you might need. I was worried it would be difficult to put the card back in, but it's very easy to place it where you need it and then slide it back. This is advertised as blocking the RFID signals sent out by your cards. Personally, I don't mind, but I keep my ID card in my wallet and pay with a Visa card at the touch of a button. I placed the badge as the last card on the back of the wallet, with the chip in the slot you use to take out your cards. This allows me to go to work without taking it out so it doesn't block the signal. I can also use my faucet and pay with the credit card I put on top without taking it out with the chip cut out. However, if I change the position so the chip is covered in metal, they work half the time. So it partially blocks but not completely if that is your concern. Overall this is a great wallet and I love how it works, how thin it is and that I don't have to sit on it all day. Excellent purchase!
