I am something of a wallet collector. I picked up a lightly used note sleeve a couple of weeks ago and found it more functional than most minimalist wallets, with easy access to basically all the cards I need to carry, and plenty of capacity for cash, coins or an emergency key, and even business cards.. I can't say it is my favorite for EDC since it actually is more capacity than i actually need, but I could see it as a go to travel wallet with the RFID, all that cash carrying capacity and hidden compartments. Yet still slim enough to carry in the front pocket.
@Nomads.Nation Жыл бұрын
Good to hear! I’ve reviewed a bunch of wallets at this point and the Note Sleeve is still one of the best (but agreed - a bit to big for my needs as well)

I'd noticed you started appearing in the algorithm every day on my homepage which caused me to click on the videos and ultimately subscribe. I am sure that is happening elsewhere too. Keep up with the great videos. I'm a big fan of EDC videos, would be fun to see what yours would be in a future video.

Eco-friendly is a marketing jargon used for chrome tan leather that doesn’t pollute as much as regular chrome tan leather does. Their leather is nothing special although it’s also not bad necessarily. Personally I use vegetable tanned leather which naturally produces pretty much no pollution when compared to even the cleanest chromium tanneries as even the cleanest ones pollute quite a lot and the dirtier ones pollute a lot. I use full grain vegetable tan leather on the wallets I make which is far more expensive than chrome tan leather but will age beautifully and look better with time as opposed to CRIMETOWN leather which just ends up degrading overtime. Also the method in which they make the pockets it’s white leather crafters call “the lazy man’s pockets”. There are good wallets for the price but you can get something much higher end made of full grain vegetable tan leather for the same price or a bit more made of actually eco friendly leather.

I’ve had the Note Sleeve for five years and love it. My older one isn’t RFID protected, which is great for me, so I can use it for transit and hotel key cards when traveling without having to remove them from the wallet (I put them in the slot in the cash area, so they face the outside). Why do you prefer RFID protection in wallets?

Hey David, you make some great points! I just like RFID for the extra peace of mind

But I believe most cards in hotels have a different frequency compared to high frequency cards like Visa cards. So hotel cards could be scanned but I'm not sure if there are exceptions.
