AKIELORFID Blocking Card Holder and Gift Box – Compact and Slim Wallet – Minimalist Card Wallet (Charlie Collection)
M**U
Compact and practical
A very neat and well crafted item so ideal as a gift (especially with its gift packaging!)The super slim profile cuts down on pocket weight and bulging whilst keeping your important stuff safe and in order.The pulling ‘tab’ dispenses your payment cards quickly and doesn’t involve any fussy, bulky, breakable ‘mechanisms’ which seem numerous in this market at the moment. I really like the optional removable clip.Lovely item, fully recommended.

My perfect wallet!
The AKIELO Charlie is my ideal wallet. Compared to the huge, bulky bifolds that I used to carry with me which were very uncomfortable in my front pocket, the Charlie is incredibly slim. I carry 11 cards around with me in it (1 embossed, 10 flat), with 4 in the central pop-up section, 3 in the front portrait slot and 4 in the back pouch. The design is clean and modern, and the coated leather material is very hard-wearing and durable, and has darkened and become smoother over time. The RFID protection offers me peace of mind, too.I’ve been carrying the Charlie around with me daily for a good few months now and it has held up perfectly. The slots have stretched to accommodate my desired number of cards, yet it is still so slim that it is not noticeable when in my front pocket. The pull tab mechanism is very reliable - much more so than the spring-loaded alternatives I have used in the past, which I find eventually break. Finally, the customer care from AKIELO is some of the best I have ever experienced, which gives me ever more confidence in their brand.If you’re looking for a minimalist leather wallet, I recommend this wholeheartedly!

Very, very nice with only minor quibbles
It is a fantastic little wallet/card holder. Easily holds 5 cards in the central pocket and a nice action on the pull cord to gain access to them. Space on the side to hold a few notes as long as they’re folded. Materials feel quality and so far are showing no signs of wear.My couple of minor irks about it are that I would like the cord material to be ever so slightly longer so the cards sit deeper in the wallet. There’s no danger of them falling out but they sit closer to the opening than the bottom and it is triggering my ocd. The other slightly more major issue is it is advertised as having RFID protection. It doesn’t. You can hold the holder to a chip and pin machine and it will read the card through it. No issue for me as 4 of my 5 cards have it so it reads all of them and therefore fails.Not a deal breaker and I would still whole-heartily recommend as we move away from cash and the need for bulky wallets

Exactly what I wanted
Wanted a lightweight, small but smart wallet for holidays abroad. This absolutely ticks all the boxes and is well made.

A great, slim, little wallet
I wasn't expecting a lot as the wallet is fairly cheap, however i found myself pleasantly surprised. First of all the wallet arrived in a really nice minimal packaging, with its own fabric case. The wallet itself is very stylish and has a soft touch finish that feels great in the hand. Despite being so slim and small the wallet easily carries all my cards.The "strip" mechanism used to draw out the cards works great.The wallet can hold some cash but it needs to be folded multiple times in order to properly fit in the wallet. Overall, its a great wallet for an even greater price.

Happy with the wallet
Really happy with the quality and the money clip and the space for cards at the front back and the big pocket in the middle, I had one card at the front and back and everything else in the middle pocket. After a good month or two using it the material stretched a bit but I don’t feel like card will fall out actually it made it easier taking them out and I love the money clip. Unfortunately had a pen in spill in my bag that’s why my corner is dirty but I’m really like this wallet can’t remember the price I bought it for but it was worth every penny I spent on it.

Very Neat (and slim)
If you have a penchant for wearing tight skinny jeans when you go out to get toasted at the pub, then this is for you!It fits the odd credit card and few folded notes and works really well.I did have one some time ago, but can’t remember which pants I left it in. Ah well…
