    Edit: I forgot, I used the RFID properties to access a gate the other day. It's here now.

    Way beyond RFID already.



    Apple is going to to unleash NFC on everyone if they like it or not. Android couldn't do it but Apple getting most major card processors and retail outlets in on it......RFID is going to be pushed for other things but not terminal sales. Id rather store my card data on an secure enclave on my phone with an fingerprint needed to unlock the enycrpted code directly to master card or american express than anything dealing with RFID as far as security.


    Next week Apple is going to change how we pay for things forever. Not immediately but in 5 years I'd be surprised if I have any type of plastic card.

    I'd actually prefer a non-camo wallet in case I drop it while hiking and have to look for it, lol.

    There is that too, some things really make life harder when they're camouflaged. But I was tearing up my nice leather wallet with all of our hiking (sweating) so I wanted a "field" wallet. But I just liked it so much that it's now my EDC wallet. I would occasionally get uncomfortable sitting on my leather one with how much stuff was in there.

    buffalo billfold company in Worthington Minnesota, that guy makes great stuff.

    buffalobillfoldcompany.com

    I'm rough on mine and its held up for three years now and still looks good. its a family business and the craftsman makes all sorts of great leather goods from buffalo hide and his prices are not outrageous either.

    Bought one. Used it for half a week. Back to using my Bellroy.

    Frankly, the Trayvax doesn't work very well as a traditional wallet. The bills are hard to get to and the cards aren't much easier to pull out. Does a good job of holding my driver's license and showing off my ugly mug, but not very good at anything else.

    I should say that, in fairness, my CLEO is a cheap bastard and my permit is just a laminated piece of paper and therefore significantly larger than your average driver's license or credit card and its presence may have had a negative impact on the function of the Trayvax.
