- Ekster Aluminum Cardholder Wallet for Men | Metal Wallets with RFID Blocking Layer | Slim & Minimalist Aluminum Wallet with Push Button for Quick Card Access

The wallet is great! Amazon's order fulfillment is not. I had to order a replacement because they shipped me the wrong wallet the first time. I love how slim it is. The trigger is smooth and makes it very easy to get to my cards. I came from a ridge which was nice and compact but getting your cards out was a bit of a pain.

my husband liked this product because of its convenience in handling many cards in a very small space. I really dont know why it broke so soon, probably it felt on the floor and the mechanism was impacted. I am buying another!

I recently got my hands on a wallet that features a unique pop-out card mechanism, and I must say, it's a fun and innovative addition to my daily carry! The pop-out feature adds a touch of excitement every time I retrieve my cards, making it a conversation starter among my friends. The RFID-blocking capability of this wallet is a huge plus for me. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my cards are protected from potential electronic theft or unauthorized scanning, which is increasingly important in today's digital age. The wallet's design is sleek and compact, fitting easily into my pockets without adding bulk. The build quality is impressive, and the materials used feel durable and well-crafted, ensuring that the wallet can withstand regular use. The pop-out card mechanism works smoothly, and it's incredibly convenient when I need to access my cards quickly. It saves me the hassle of fumbling through my wallet to find the card I need, making transactions smoother and more efficient. However, I must mention that the wallet holds slightly fewer cards than what was advertised. While it's still able to hold a decent number of cards, it fell short of the maximum capacity stated in the product description. This is a minor downside, but it's worth noting if you plan to carry a significant number of cards with you. In conclusion, the wallet with the pop-out card feature and RFID-blocking capability has been a delightful addition to my everyday essentials. Its unique design and added security make it stand out among other wallets. While it may not hold as many cards as advertised, its overall functionality and convenience make it a worthwhile investment. If you're looking for a stylish and secure wallet that adds a fun element to your card-carrying experience, this wallet is definitely worth considering!

I've been waiting to bite the bullet and get rid a regular wallet in favor of something like this. Decided to finally do so and after some months with it I can safely say it's been a solid experience. I've kept 4 "credit card" sized cards inside including my id. Seems like you can do more but it seems like a lot to manage. There's a plate that comes with that can be secure with the band on the outside to put more cards in which works for more storage but sometimes I wish it was all just one unit. How it's only secured via the band means it'll shift around but it's always secured the cards inside so no worries of it falling out. You can also slip a card in on the other side inside the band. Usually keep my work id there, so I can easily scan. My one con or worry would be how long the push mechanism will last. The button itself feels flimsy (there's slight wiggle) which sort of kills the "premium feel". Though there is good resistance on the push (to eject the cards) which gives off the idea that there is a quality mechanism underneath. Overall I do very much like it. It's sleek/sharp. Feels nice to pull it out and use it (haha).

[ORIGINAL REVIEW] (still accurate - 3 stars) - update at bottom for Customer Service Response: I was really excited for this wallet and the prospect of quick access to my cards. Unfortunately the actual experience was a wallet that was more difficult to use than the slimline Airo Collective one that it replaced. Instead of the 6 cards quickly and easily popping up each time, my experience has been that having 6 cards is just slightly too tight and I end up needing to take all 6 out to get the one I want. Additionally, the tiny lip is too small to actually grab any individual card from the 6 for me even if they weren't so tightly packed. I've also found the pop-up to be unreliable in terms of staggering - as shown in the photo, about 50% of the time two cards will stick together and pop up as one. Removing a card also doesn't help because with fewer than 6 the cards sort of move around and again don't reliably align. I do note that I have two thicker cards - an AMEX Platinum and a CHASE Sapphire, and I've tried putting my ID in (since it's thinner) and even my health insurance card (also thin), but there simply doesn't seem to be a card order or organization that allows for either of the two thicker cards to be inside. It may be that with 6 "regular" cards this might be a great wallet for some, but I'd steer clear of it if your cards are in any way non-standard in thickness. [UPDATE]: 5-stars for Customer Service Ekster reached out after posting my 3-star review to offer a refund on the wallet since it did not meet my needs/expectations. IMPORTANTLY - *They did not ask me to change or delete my review* They simply asked to make it right and stand by the guarantee on their website (which we don't technically get on Amazon). I accepted and they refunded the wallet within an hour of my response. While the wallet is not for me, as described above, I am always a fan of companies that offer good support and stand by their products, so 5-stars for the support!

Im going to start things off by saying I did receive a faulty unit, it happens but also the wrong configuration (not ekster fault but Amazon) but the mechanism was getting stuck when trying to engage it. Ekster responded immediately, I sent a video and the representative sent me a brand new unit. Not just a new unit but upgraded me to the pro model, which I didn't know existed unit I went to the Ekster store and realized the pro has a metal switch instead of plastic, which would be my only complaint about the standard but still performs perfectly. Not many companies stand behind the products they put out but also value and support their costumer base the way Ekster does. Yes you're paying a premium but what you get is a lifetime warranty and rest assured if anything happens to your product they will make things right, no excuses, no BS or splitting hairs they will take care of you. Don't go with the clones, the cheap price might be tempting but with a lifetime warranty you buy one and your good if anything happens. Superb quality and even better company. Will be a lifetime costumer. Also thank you Agustin for the incredible service.

Son thinks it is cool. Worked out well. Keep the extra cardboard dummies if only a few credit or debit cards/ID. That helps keep it all tight.

I've had the Carbon Fiber version for about 6 months now, so I feel I've had it long enough to do a review. The cardholder comfortably fits 6 cards that do not have embossed numbers. So for me, it's a driver's license, a permit, a debit card, and 3 credit cards. I was tempted to fit a 7th card, and it was doable but it was tight and I struggled to depress the deployment button, so to avoid breaking the plastic deployment lever inside the holder, I went back to 6. So 6 non-embossed cards is the maximum. The exterior silicon band looks great, but there is little elasticity, so getting 3 cards under the back cardholder is a struggle, 4 or more is not really possible, and 1 or 2 is just fine. But, the silicon band stretches with 3 cards, and after some time, if you choose to take 1 card out to only have 2 cards under the band, the band itself will be loose because silicon will stretch over time, but will not usually shrink all the way back to original size. Overall, the cardholder itself looks incredible, is very lightweight, and quite sturdy. HOWEVER: Even with the maximum comfortable limit of 6 non-embossed cards inside of the cardholder, the card deployment button on my particular cardholder likes to stick open. So my cards will go up, but the button will stick instead of rebound back out. To get the button to move back to its neutral "closed" position, I have to press the cards back down ever so slightly to make the button snap back out. I've attached a video to show what I'm talking about. I absolutely DO NOT believe this cardholder is worth anywhere near close to $125. That price should be nearly illegal. It's nice, it's functional (mostly), holds plenty of cards, but $125 is a joke. So, just know that if you choose to purchase one for an eye-watering $125, you may be wasting money on a defective one like mine.

Purchased for my husband for a Fathers Day gift and he loves it! Excellent upgrade from his previous wallet, cards stay organized and he has easy access. This wallet is very sleek, light and compact. He did say there is a slight noise when he pulls the trigger to release the cards but it’s not an annoying sound or a deal breaker. 4.5/5

I've used a bi-fold wallet for over 15 years, been looking into getting a minimalistic cardholder for ID, and a few of my most frequently used credit cards. Initially, I was hesitant initially about folding my cash and keeping it exposed. However, after using this wallet for 1 week I've gotten used to it. The backplate really gives you a lot more space and versatility to carry more cash or card. I highly recommend the aluminum over the parliament or senate.

Excellent wallet expensive but feels very sturdy in the hand. Very high quality.

This is an outstanding wallet. It performs as stated. With covid-19, I use very little cash.

I was searching for a minimalist everyday carry (EDC) wallet and compared options like Ridge, Double Oak, Ekster, and others. I found that Ekster stands out the most in terms of design and style, and the card ejector mechanism is fantastic. When I tried to purchase these wallets from their official site, I discovered that we would have to pay 100% in customs charges on top of the wallet costs, which is insane. However, I was pleased to find them available on Amazon India, and to my surprise, they turned out to be original brand wallets at a decent price. Note: Those transitioning from traditional wallets to EDCs may experience a learning curve, especially when it comes to carrying cash. There are many supporting accessories available for these EDC wallets, but unfortunately, they are not available for purchase in India. I plan to buy accessories like the AirTag cash clip when I go abroad. If you tend to carry less cash and prefer digital payments, an EDC wallet is a must-have.
