At most, I might carry a physical debit card and possibly a credit card in the off chance a vendor doesn’t accept tap to pay. For online orders, my password manager keeps track of my cards, so I almost never need to pull out a physical card to buy anything.
@ciabelle@Hanky@MrGoodGuy@ParadisePete Regardless of what you might actually carry, the claim of the product is that it can carry 15 when in reality it’s only 6. Strapping any amount to the outside seems highly insecure.
@januarymick@MrGoodGuy If stuff bunjeed to the outside counts, why did they stop at 15? This wallet could hold hundreds of cards! Thousands! The national debt!
I have one of these! Do they work? No idea, It’s just one of those things you can buy where if nothing happens it was either never going to happen to you or having this prevents it from happening entirely.
Those photos implying that you would put a tracking tile inside an RFID blocking wallet are either nuts or a fun way to insert a little chaos into the world.
I bought or got in an IRK some of the as seen on TV version of this a while back and they were janky AF, pretty thick and bulky. I think I finally got rid of them in a garage sale. I now carry an unbranded version of the Ridge wallet, which cost about the same as these in the before times after the other before times (post COVID, pre tariffs). But the card extender button might get me to buy one of these. Though the lack of expanding inside is a downer. But I think just six cards could be okay.
I don’t carry all my cash in the strap, but I do tuck an emergency $20 in it for the times I might have nothing else and need it. So far it has served as insurance guaranteeing that I haven’t needed it. Another great use for the strap is a hotel key card so the wallet becomes the room key.
@djslack i also carry a Ridge wallet; it was a gift from my sister. 8 years, no issues. Mine is aluminum with the money clip add-on, not the strap.
Just counted - 21 cards inside (credit, debit, DL, membership) No cash in the clip right now, just business cards.
I do appreciate the card-fanning-out feature of the Statik wallet though. I do find my Ridge to be somewhat fiddly in that it takes me a little time to find and grasp whichever card I’m looking for. Once I remove it I’ll either tuck my thumb into the gap from the removed card or I’ll spin the next card down to the vertical position to mark its spot.
these things are cheap though… i think I’ll grab a trio. If I like them, great! If I don’t, Christmas presents!
@djslack I bought the Englishman a ridge wallet for Father’s Day because he’s been banging on about it for ages. He hates it. I’m going to buy one of these to see if it is any better but most of these are just overpriced marketing tools. At$7 that’s a risk I’m willing to try.
Anyone else find it odd that the aluminum version on their site is $80 and the carbon fiber was $45, now marked down to $23, yet the carbon fiber ones are the higher priced option on Meh?
@djslack@longtones I once met a pair of brothers whose names were Moe and Les Small. Oddly, Les Small was more small and Moe Small was less small. (True story.)
Today’s writeup reminds me of the letter I wrote @matthew to ask Irk to pose for the Trolboro lollipops clock (It’s the Cheer Up Sucker!). I’m lucky he made it through it and didn’t just delete my email.
Did I pick up a second job as a Meh copywriter in my subconscious? Is this why I’ve been waking up tired and with my laptop in my bed?
I know that minimalist wallets have been all the rage for a few years, but I still carry a lot of junk (cash, credit cards, insurance, prescription, HSA, membership, loyalty, National Parks pass, etc.).
I guess this could be useful for the half dozen times a year I still go out, like to see live music or something, when I’d only need a credit card or two (to maximize cash back), a little cash, and my insurance card (because you never know). And my ID*.
I went to a concert in the spring that had wrist straps for buying alcohol at the concession stand. The young woman handing them out asked me if I had my ID with me before giving me one. She didn’t ask to see it. I doubt there was anyone in the audience under 50. Maybe 60. I guess they has to be covered in case something happened.
@craigthom There are supposedly a few places where the law requires a “No ID means we cannot serve you regardless of apparent age” policy. Texas lets by-the-drink establishments set their own policies to prevent serving minors. Technically, as of September 1, 2025, liquor stores in Texas are supposed affirmatively verify age via an acceptable ID for alcohol sales. TABC expects to allow a grace period of two years before they begin strongly enforcing this.
No change purse. I need that for the quarters to get the Aldi’s shopping carts and parking meters. And no, I can’t just leave quarters in the car… When there are things in there under the age of 13 there is no way I’d still have any change left in there if I did. And I’d discover that at a point when I actually needed some.
@Kidsandliz I see some cool “quarter holding” keychains - Aldi even sells them occasionally. Get one for your keys, assuming you still have physical ones.
@Kidsandliz It is possible to drill a very small hole near the edge of a quarter, attach a keychain leash to it, and keep that hanging on your keychain to employ for this, but it may annoy some of the Aldi checkout clerks who like to swap you to a different cart as they ring up your stuff. There are 3d-printed and stamped-metal things that will do the job, and they have a handle to make extraction easier, but they cost a lot more than a quarter. I could probably silver-solder a wire handle onto one if I really wanted to try, but I seem to be able to keep a few quarters in my purse.
@umbrellacorp@Turken@werehatrack I usually have change in my wallet (which is why this wallet meh is selling would be useless to me). The best solution, on occasion, would be strap kids to the roof rack and then no worries about spilled food, pocketed quarters, arguments due to whom is 1/4 of an inch over “the line” on the seat…
And actually the second oldest is the biggest mercenary of the bunch and most likely to be the one to swipe my quarters do a treasure hunt in the car for quarters and other loose change. Big mistake of mine was to teach him that change is worth something. He dumped out all his change once and got back $8 in ones (he loves ones - says ones are worth more than larger bills because that gives him “less change to lose” when he buys something from the school vending machines) and was shocked it was worth so much. Now he will pick up pennies from the parking lot and every time he has enough for a dollar wants me to do a trade.
I tell them if they don’t behave they don’t get to pick the radio music and have to listen to what I want to listen to. The 9 year old has decided that she really likes harp music, especially when with a few other instruments (I have some of that on CD’s). It’s hoot when it is her turn to pick and she chooses something like Vivaldi’s 4 Seasons and the oldest two tell her she doesn’t have to pick punishment music and she can pick what she wants. She then tells them, in a very serious voice, that she wants to listen to that and if they want to fight about it then they will be listening to more of it.
@jonmeh@Turken@umbrellacorp@werehatrack The problem is that DHS probably takes a dim view of strapping kids to a roof rack even if I promise to strap them such that their mouthes, when open and yelling at me, won’t collect insects.
I’m kind of “old fashioned” meaning I’m old and have no idea what modern fashion looks like. I carry a leather wallet in my back pocket; it’s a Costanza. My wallet has two compartments for paper money and several slots for credit/debit cards, my Smith’s (Kroger) rewards card, driver’s license, and fishing license. I also have a few coupons for various meal deals or discounts on fishing supplies stuck in there. I can’t imagine sitting on this aluminum or carbon fiber hard case. Either it would bend or crack, or my butt would become permanently dented and bruised, or both. And for these reasons, I’m out.
@accelerator I honestly don’t like sitting on my wallet to begin with, but as I’m typing this, I just realized I have my phone in my back pocket, and it’s not denting my butt…yet.
@hyppo I do sometimes carry a small leather money clip in my front pocket. It has slots for 5 cards and a strong magnetic clip for cash. I usually only carry this when out to a ballpark or concert.
I should look again at the dimensions of today’s offering. I just imagined it was too big and thick to carry in my front pocket.
Been using something like that for many years. It goes in my front pocket with all I need: License, insurance, some cards y a couple of bills. No more annoying bulky old wallets full with things that you never need. Your butt cheeks will be happy.
@RascalMJ I bought 5 carbon fiber ones. I never keep my wallet in my back pocket, so I never sit on it. Always keep it in my side pockets because its so lightweight and small.
In for 5. I have a Ekster, and every 2 years I buy a new one. Will try this out instead. If I like it, I’m set for a while; if not, easy christmas gifts for friends lmao.
@user63632391 My Ekster seems to lose its functioning mechanism after a year or so (the little “push” to slide cards out thingy). Also, since I only load 5 cards in, the cards start to slide out on their own after a year and a half, I noticed. Maybe I’m just unlucky, on my 3rd Ekster wallet
Why the Risk Is Minimal
• Modern cards don’t broadcast freely – Most U.S. credit/debit cards require very close proximity (a few centimeters) and active engagement with a reader. The encryption used makes skimming nearly impossible.
• No widespread cases – Law enforcement and payment networks have virtually no confirmed reports of criminals stealing money by “RFID skimming” in public.
• Bigger real threats – The actual risks are phishing, online breaches, stolen physical cards, or card-not-present fraud, which RFID-blocking wallets do nothing to prevent.
@jouest I think his last name was misspelled. It probably should have been Grandoisé. I assume that his patrilineal forebears originated in the Verbeux region of France.
Great little item. I only have one issue with it. I bought several as gifts, and when you open it and see the “$100 bill”, it a bit anticlimactic to get just a credit card holder. I might open each one and take that out., but even the picture on the box it misleading.
Terrible product, the cards fall out with the slightest shake. I have a similar wallet that locks the cards in with little tabs until the lever is pressed. Also, the inside of the wallet is not smooth and scratches the cards on deployment.
Since that was an estimateddelivery date I would give them a couple more days before I lose hope totally. As mentioned above check your order status (found in the “account” drop down) and see if you have a tracking number and where the product lies. meh is not known for its shipping prowess in general. Most orders take a bit to get processed and sent, hence part of the reason for the steep discounts.
but when you see the slider button popped off while you’re trying to pay at the register at Costco, while three are in line behind you, each trying to buy 20 1.75 liter bottles of Margarita mix for the weekend, and you’re stuck trying to knock your cards out like cigarettes in a full pack, that’s a fun time.
The button on the side that you push up to make your cards come out, literally broke off in 3 days. I had used it twice. It was only in my pocket or on my desk. It just fell off. I emailed customer support, no response. Take this how you wish but it falls apart in less than a week.
When two of these arrived 10 days after the indicated date, the first thing I noticed was how heavy the package was. These may be thin but not light weight, The aluminum is heavier than the synthetic one. And while the thumb flick release is sexy, it almost always takes two hands to hold and push, unless you are only carrying 1-2 cards. In the mean time, I started carrying 4 cards and 2 ID on a binder clip, with a couple bucks, and actually that works a lot better, although you have to be careful in sliding and replacing a card. It’s as light as possible, quite secure with a good clip and even more compact. So will I be cool with the new wallet, or practicial and de minimis with the clip. It’s very possible the clip will prevail. The epitome of Meh!

So actual Hard Cash just gets strapped to the OUTSIDE?? WTF?? No thanks.
@MrGoodGuy Not only that, but only 6 of the 15 cards would go inside it. You’d also be strapping the additional 9 to the outside.
@kyanostiger Yeah, I was gonna mention how secure they’d be too. Now we know why they ended up here!
@MrGoodGuy I didn’t realize being strapped for cash was supposed to be a good thing?
@kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy Looks like a solution trying to create a problem.
@kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy Look at Mister Moneybags with 15 credit cards there
@Hanky @kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy Captain Creditbags?
@Hanky @kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy @ParadisePete Aren’t most folks storing all their cards on their phone (Google Wallet/Apple Pay) anyway?
At most, I might carry a physical debit card and possibly a credit card in the off chance a vendor doesn’t accept tap to pay. For online orders, my password manager keeps track of my cards, so I almost never need to pull out a physical card to buy anything.
@ciabelle @Hanky @MrGoodGuy @ParadisePete Regardless of what you might actually carry, the claim of the product is that it can carry 15 when in reality it’s only 6. Strapping any amount to the outside seems highly insecure.
@ciabelle @Hanky @kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy @ParadisePete So 6 inside and all the rest are strap-ons?
@MrGoodGuy saying it holds 15 cards by strapping 9 to the outside is like saying my car seats 6, or 10 if you can convince 4 people to ride on top.
@kyanostiger @MrGoodGuy I came here to express the same concern. No way in HELL would I trust that.
@januarymick @MrGoodGuy If stuff bunjeed to the outside counts, why did they stop at 15? This wallet could hold hundreds of cards! Thousands! The national debt!
@blaineg @januarymick @MrGoodGuy Just head on over to Harbor Freight and get some ratchet straps.
I have one of these! Do they work? No idea, It’s just one of those things you can buy where if nothing happens it was either never going to happen to you or having this prevents it from happening entirely.
@AaronLeeJohnson I mean, you could test it. You could put one card in it and try to tap the wallet on a credit card terminal that usually works well.
I thought this RFID stuff was all hooey until
Is that FORGED wallet gonna get me in trouble with the T-men or other Feds?

@mike808 Hey! How’s ya mom n em?
Honestly, I do not think that anyone at Meh loses any sleep over the question of whether anything is or isn’t “Georgia Red.”
I will continue to harbor hope that they actively seek things that can make a 'rita, despite the ample evidence against any such assertion.
Anyone else find it odd that the aluminum version on their site is $80 and the carbon fiber was $45, now marked down to $23, yet the carbon fiber ones are the higher priced option on Meh?

Also: the movie reference of the day is Valkyrie.
Why do they look like they have the Adobe logo on them? Has unlicensed Photoshop started watermarking images?
Maybe that’s why these are on sale…
(carefuller inspection shows that Statik’s “A” is the mirror image of Adobe’s “A” … plus some other very slight differences)
If I got this then I would stick it in my regular fat wallet, so it would be kind of inception for me.

Why the Risk Is Minimal
• Modern cards don’t broadcast freely – Most U.S. credit/debit cards require very close proximity (a few centimeters) and active engagement with a reader. The encryption used makes skimming nearly impossible.
• No widespread cases – Law enforcement and payment networks have virtually no confirmed reports of criminals stealing money by “RFID skimming” in public.
• Bigger real threats – The actual risks are phishing, online breaches, stolen physical cards, or card-not-present fraud, which RFID-blocking wallets do nothing to prevent.
