Slim RFID Wallet

Materials & Craft

The Slim RFID Wallet is built around a 0.7 mm full-grain cowhide shell backed by a woven, signal-blocking shield liner. For vegan programs we offer a matched microfiber PU in the same gauge so tooling and sizing stay identical across both material options. Edges are hand-burnished with a natural wax, and the elastic retention band is stitched rather than glued, so it keeps its tension after hundreds of fills.

• Shell: 0.7 mm full-grain cowhide (or 0.9 mm vegan PU on request)
• Shield layer: 13.56 MHz woven RFID liner bonded between shell and lining
• Retention: flat elastic band, lock-stitched at both ends
• Edges: hand-skived and wax-burnished, no exposed threads

Customization

Stock designs ship from existing tooling. For private label we hot-stamp or deboss your logo into the lower-right corner on leather, and laser-engrave it on the aluminum variant. Six standard hide colors are held in stock; Pantone-matched colors are available on custom runs. Packaging upgrades from poly-bag to a rigid two-piece gift box are quoted separately.

• Logo: hot-stamp / deboss (leather) or laser engrave (aluminum)
• Colors: 6 standard hides, Pantone match on MOQ runs
• Packaging: poly bag standard; kraft sleeve or rigid gift box optional

B2B Procurement

Samples ship in 7–10 days once artwork is approved. Standard production runs complete in 25–35 days after sample sign-off, with AQL 2.5 batch sampling. The stock design starts at 300 pcs; custom tooling or a dedicated Pantone colorway starts at 1,000 pcs. Sample cost is credited against the first production order.

Product Overview

The Slim RFID Wallet is our thinness-optimized aluminum wallet — a 9 mm, 38 g sandwich of aviation-grade aluminum with a lever-release card tray and 98.8% RFID shielding. It is built for buyers who measure wallets in millimeters: the everyday-carry user who will not accept bulk, and body-hugging retail niches with premium packaging expectations.

Who It’s For

Specify this SKU for urban-carry brands, lifestyle retail and DTC lines where “slim” is a headline feature, and for campaigns aimed at the front-pocket user who switched away from bifolds. It is also the natural sample-showcase item: thinness is a hand-held proof point.

Key Benefits

• 9 mm total stack: aluminum back plate + card tray + front cover — engineered to the lowest profile we can machine at scale.
• Shield that cannot delaminate: the shell is the shield — no film layer to age and fail; verified per batch at AQL 2.5.
• Faster two-thumb access: the lever fan-out pops cards in one motion — simpler than a protruding roller that catches pockets.
• Premium anodized surfacing: satin silver, matte black and gunmetal with laser engraving — retail-shelf presence matters here.

Best Use Cases

• Front-pocket converts: the primary pitch to ex-bifold users who crave pocket minimalism.
• Giftable premium retail: thin + anodized + engraveable = a credible sub-$80 gift item at POS.
• Cash-light markets: 6 cards, no cash section — the spec matches card-first payment markets.

What This Product Does Not Do

• It is cashless and coinless — no bill or coin compartments; cash carriers need the Leather Money Clip Wallet.
• Capacity is 6 cards — heavier stackers should see the RFID Slim Wallet flagship instead.
• The tray is a lever mechanism: users who want a spring-loaded pop-up full-fan action should test the Aluminum Pop-Up RFID Wallet.

Compare With Alternatives

In the slim-metal family this sits between the Slim Metal Pop-Up Card Wallet (same thinness, faster fan) and the Stainless Steel Card Wallet (premium material). Choose by pocket: 9 mm for maximum slimness, stainless steel if the buyer leads with weight and durability.

More Questions Buyers Ask

Q: Will 6 cards really stay in a 9 mm stack?
A: The lever tray plus retention edges keep the stack flat; some users remove one card to reach maximum thinness — the design is validated for 4–6.

Q: What finishes convert best at retail?
A: Gunmetal and black outsell silver in urban-carry tests; the satin silver leads gifting.

Q: How does shielding hold if the shell is thin?
A: Shielding is a function of the closed aluminum shell geometry, not thickness alone — verified per batch, not assumed.
