Review on πŸ’Ό Aluminum Carbon Minimalist Men's Wallets, Card Cases & Money Organizers with Wallet Blocking Technology by Chakravarthi Ladner

Premium Low Profile Wallet

I've been waiting a long time to finally review this because I wanted to give an honest verified opinion. After several months of using this wallet I can honestly say this is the best wallet I have ever had for my personal needs. It's sleek, small but weighty. The adjustment is pleasant, the kit includes a screwdriver and an additional rubber band. Also the ability to remove the pre fitted money clip, use a cash strap or just plain bare metal with no cash option for a true minimalist. One thing I noticed is that the aluminum hasn't been machined enough to accommodate the extra money strap, so there's a slight bulge when you add it. I've spent some time studying it to make sure I'm dressing it right, but it looks like it should be. It doesn't really affect the profile of the wallet or how it works, just a minor imperfection that you may notice from time to time. I find that the rubber rolls as expected and wears out a bit from friction. The only way to avoid this is to put it in a tighter, tighter bag. I've seen a lot of reviews saying it was difficult to remove cards. These statements have some value, but only if you use very few cards. As you can see in my last pictures if you click the cards and then place them on edge they will naturally spread out when you get tired of them with just a stretch of the rubber band. This makes it very convenient to pick up and pull out the card you want. Yes, the cards will move a bit when in your pocket, I find myself pushing them backwards to align with the wallet so they don't stick out, but we're just talking millimeters here. Anyway it's more of a fidget toy in that regard, it's not necessary but you can do it from time to time. It's not a minus for me, it just means I deal with it more than some might. I liked all the color options but in the end I chose flashy gold because it seemed more flashy and black would be easy to lose. Overall I'm happy with this purchase, I was looking for a modern, thin, non-bulging wallet that wouldn't fray or bend my cards. More than delivered for the price.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
