Ekster Senate Classic Brown Leather Slim Wallet for Men | RFID-Blocking Minimalist Wallet with Quick Card Access & Slim Profile

I used to have a think wallet in my rear pocket. Then I purchased this and my comfort level has gone up dramatically. No more bulky wallet. I keep only the most important cards and they sit comfortably in my front pocket. The design is well made and the push button works great. It pushes my cards up for easy access. It holds 6 credit cards if you stuff them, but then it doesn’t open smoothly. It holds my 3 credit cars, driver’s licenses, and one other smooth card perfectly. I would recommend this to anyone who is considering doing away with a bulky wallet, especially when most of those cards are now digital.

I've been on a Mission to find the best minimalist wallet. I've tried them all, or close to it. In the end, it's basically a tie between this wallet here and the Akeeni XSTO. The Ekster gets a slight edge because I just can't stop playing with the pop-up button. LOL. The version I have fits 4 cards, which is perfect for me. My license, two creit cards, and my Kaiser health card. It comes with a separate piece of leather-covered something, with a tight pocket and a cash strap attached to it. I don't need an extra pocket, and, luckily, it also comes with ANOTHER cash strap, not attached to a leather sleeve thingy. So I took that thing off and just use the cash strap and have an even slimmer wallet for my front pocket. I really like it. I once had this same wallet that held a few more cards, I forgot how many, but it was too thick and I sent it back and moved on.FYI: The Akeeni XSTO is a really great choice, too. The plusses there is that you can customize the exterior - I put a cool graphic on it and my email address and cellphone #, in case I lost it. Looks really cool. It stores the cards in sideways, basically, but out in the open, as it were, and you just shuffle them out and pick out the one you want. They click back into place nicely, and under the cards is an indentation for folded cash. I think it says 3 bills, but I've put in much more than that without a problem. I also got the 6 card version but found it too thick and got the 4 card version, which is perfect.At the end of the day, I'm using the Ekster, just because I like that the cards pop-up, I like the leather exterior a little better than the aluminum one of the XSTO. The only negative I'd say for the Ekster is I'm not a huge fan of cash straps. so that's the plus of the XSTO. Everything is contained within. Having said that, the Ekster still wins out, though just barely, and just for the fun of popping up the cards and the leather look. It's actually a really tough call, and I will likely go back and forth, but for now, the green 4-card Ekster gets the privilege of being in my pocket.

Leather started peeling after 3 days— adhesive needs to be stronger. Cards also fit very loosely in the wallet. One little shake with the wallet inverted and the cards come about halfway out.Addendum— Ekster reached out to me on their own accord and sent me a replacement quickly. I will continue to buy their products knowing they offer good customer support.

I previously had this wallet so I already knew it was bang for my buck.The quality is wonderful and more so, the convenience. The ability to whip it out and click that button is awesome. I find myself fiddling with it just for fun sometimes. It’s sturdy and holds a fair bit of cards. The description claims up to 6 but personally I have the best experience with 5. Any more and it kinda sticks.This is not the wallet for you if you’re a big cash person. You *can* carry some cash with it but you’ll have to fold it up and stick it in the strap (wink). It comes in handy on the rare occasion I have a bill or two though, and it’s nice that it’s removable if you’d rather go that route.This wallet will last you years so for $80 I would say it’s well worth it. Go for it!

I’ve had this wallet for 6 months. About 1 million nth ago it started being difficult to get my cards back in once taken out for use.Today the card ejecting mechanism broke. It’s unusable.Do not recommend. This should not break after 6 months of normal use.

First off; this wallet is indeed a head turners. When it came it was well packaged. I must admit that I was a little skeptical. On top of it, the mechanism is plastic. Dropping it might break it. I couldn’t believe I paid this much for a leather wallet. I mean I could go to JC Penny’s or Burlington to get a $10 wallet. But here we go.When you get the wallet it had simulated cards already in it. I gripped the wallet and tap on the card trigger (that’s what I call the mechanism) and BOOM! The cards come out and they come out staggered. So friggin cool. So I compared these simulated cards to my cards and they are indeed about the same width and length but a real credit/ debt card weighs more. I load my cards into the wallet and hit the trigger with my pinky finger….BOOM! My cards come out without a struggle….staggered. So damn dope. I was in a little awe! So I push them back down and give it another try…BOOM….they come up smoothly…staggered. I load the rest of my items in it. No problems.That same day I’m at a restaurant. It’s go times fella. As I go into my front pocket to retrieve my new minimalist wallet I’m thinking to myself….will this baby perform the way it should….BOOM! Without a hitch, I hit the trigger. Success! Within 15 seconds a groups of gentlemen at the table across from me says to me: bro….where did you get that wallet…I want one. My cool stock just went!

Updating my review. I had a problem with the wallet and the company immediately resolved the issue. If you have any issues, I recommend you contact them.

I like the idea. It is compact, easy to carry, and easy to get to my cards. The problem is the build construction. I've had this wallet 4 months and the glue for the leather is already failing around the entire top edge. The wallet is not constantly in and out of my pocket and only has mild use
