Review on ๐Ÿ‘› Dango D01 Stylish Everyday Carry (EDC) Wallet by Greg Peitz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good quality, a little rough around the edges, DOES NOT block NFC skimming.

The wallet itself is solidly machined from machined aluminum. The workmanship is good, but I had to file the edges as they were all very sharp and rough. It sucks, but it was definitely something that was easy to fix. The problem is that this doesn't prevent RFID readers from collecting data from NFC cards in the wallet. Last night one of the cards I kept in this wallet showed an unknown charge. After I canceled the card, ordered another and disputed the payment, I checked the wallet on my SQUARE contactless card reader and it read the card straight through the aluminum from both directions. I put the card between four other cards and then put it in the middle of the wallet with all four cards and the aluminum plate of the wallet between the NFC card and the reader and she still read it without hesitation. Overall, this is a decent, minimalist wallet that can also open bottles if you're looking for it, but it does NOT protect you from NFC card skimming.
