It’s definitely not for everyone, and I’m torn on whether it worsens the fit in my pocket (depends on your trousers), but overall I enjoyed the unique loop on the Grip6 Wallet. The multitool pushes the wallet's total weight above 6 ounces, reduces the number of cards it can hold and won't be happily received when boarding an airplane. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The entire front of the wallet slides up to help fan the cards out with a spring-loaded action that is satisfyingly mechanical.

Along with this, the Grip 6 is wrapped in a thick layer of Top-grain Leather , that has a distressed and vintage look to it. A mechanical wallet will be made of a metal of some kind, while other minimalist wallets will be made of leather or a vegan leather substitute. The best minimalist wallets combine a stylish appearance, durable construction and -- most importantly -- a design that forces you to be economical in your choices about what to carry around. A blanket of anodized aluminum bends 180 degrees to form the GRIP6 Wallet, looking sleek and clean, feeling smooth and high quality.LOCKING MECHANISM- When not in use, the spring-loaded locking mechanism keeps your cards locked securely in place. If later, you find that you prefer the wallet without the trigger or the leather cover, keep in mind that they can be easily removed with a little effort. Today, we’re going to look into what makes the Grip6 different and whether or not it deserves a place as your next wallet.

If you look at the pictures I’ve included with this review, you may be able to see why the leather cover is so important. The Grip6 is not only more comfortable than my leather wallets were, but it’s also able to accept all the contents my leather wallet held. This loop protrudes from the top side of the wallet and acts as both an easy way to grip the wallet (hence its name) in your hand, but also an easy way to trigger the pop-up feature. Any of the wallets that claim to be RFID blockers are subjected to a test using an Android Pixel phone and an RFID card that has my Twitter link on it.If I had one complaint it would be the lack of dynamic artwork, but if all you want is to show your team colors and logo, they work for that. It’s a highly popular method for storing and quickly accessing cards and is one of the most popular wallet types on the market this year. But my top choice overall is the shorter, wider Hammer Anvil; I don't mind that it lacks the ID window, which, for all of its practicality, I find tacky and not befitting of our top wallets list. It has a terrific inner pocket -- which is closed on one side only, allowing you to open it up wide -- that comes together firmly with a satisfying magnetic snap.

The loop is also fun, as a fidgeter I often found myself spinning it around my finger like an oversized Bayblade for a fidget spinner. So, I purchased the orange colored Grip6 with the black leather cover, which was the only available combination left. Then it's time for my least favorite test; sitting on the wallet in my back pocket for an entire workday. I bought this new version without the loop (which is fun to use in a fidget-kind of way) and added the additional card holding strap/band/thingy. Whether it's one dollar or a stack of 20s, however, this wallet will not stay closed when outside of your pocket.

It's extremely durable, handcrafted with "aerospace-grade" aluminum -- for those of you looking for a metal wallet -- in the US, and can hold 12 cards (at least) plus a wad of bills in the included silicone band. From engineering to manufacturing, we are responsible for making sure your GRIP6 product works better and lasts longer than you'd ever expect. And the T01 comes with not only a built-in bottle opener, but Dango's stainless-steel multitool accessory, which can be stowed in the wallet. The Airo Collective's Stealth is tasteful, thoughtfully designed and extraordinarily, singularly minimal, weighing a feathery 0.
