Nodus Hifold Wallet

Product Information

Before I go into this I should probably define what a minimalist wallet, also known as a slim, small, or tight wallet) actually is. Different people have different opinions on when a becomes too large or small enough to be considered minimalist. So since I’m writing this article (and I’ve got no one to argue with me) I’ve come up with a simple definition below which I think fairy defines a minimalist wallet. Garzini has always been on my radar for innovation in wallet design. They get this name from their so-called ‘Versaflex system’. This allows you to reach your notes or cards faster and is simple to use. It’s kind of hard to explain how it works so this video is best to show you.

Cashew wallet card capacity:Cashew can hold 7 cards and 20 dollar bills. There is no space for coins. The Compact Wallet is really compact, but can fit up to 10 cards and includes a pull tab to make them instantly accessible when you need them. It's RFID protected on one side only, so you can pay conveniently with cards on the other side. A further description follows its image, the first featured below: Wireless charging specs:Yes! You can buy a charging pad from Woolet or use with an already existing Qi charger if you have one. A charge can hold for about 6 months, depending on usage. I’d say that Harber London provides a range of wallets the most similar to Bellroy in design providing a huge variety from slim, minimalist, zip, and travel wallets. They offer some really innovative features in their wallet including magnetic clasps that keep your wallet closed, hidden card slots that really make Harber London stand out from the crowd when it comes to prioritizing the functionality of their wallets. My favorite wallet in their range is the classic card wallet which you can read our full review of here. The Airo Stealth Wallet is built in a bi-fold style design, with a minimalist size coming in at just 7.6’’ x 3.0’ ’. With a patent-pending offset card slot, the internal capacity and functionality are great providing easy access to your cards and must-needed structural support that other wallets don’t include. Airo’s choice of material is also innovative using high-quality sustainable leather from an Italian tannery.

Touted as the 'one of the world's smallest smart wallets', German-born FOCX combined sleek design features with sharp technology to create a unique product for the minimalists. Bellroy has always been a popular wallet brand and that’s one of the reasons why they made my top wallet brands list. As one of the biggest commercial brands entirely dedicated to wallets the Bellroy Card Sleeve excels in both its functionality, form, and design.

Baggizmo makes smart wallets, Qi chargers, carryall bags, and more. The star of the show is definitely the Baggizmo Wiseward, though — an anti-theft smart wallet with the works! Do you like to have your ID easily visible in a clear window? Do you carry a lot of cash? Are you more of a minimalist, or do you want to carry everything? These are some of the most important questions to ask yourself when shopping for a smart wallet. FOCX smart wallet lifespan & battery life:They're built with high quality materials, so are quite durable. They don't include batteries.

To get into your Cashew Wallet, just press the button on its cover until the green light turns on, then open your wallet to get what you need.

Waterproof?The NFC tag is water-resistant. The wallets are made of leather with a wax finish, so not so much. Nodus Wallet’s are a brand I’ve been familiar with for years but one I know very little about. Although they don’t share any information about their brand I’ve always been fascinated with their range of wallets and the unique appearance and texture of their wallet’s leather. If you look closely at each wallet you can clearly see what can only be described as grainy with a unique patternation. Nodus also follow the Bellroy path, and although not as thorough, design and manufacture each of their products to the highest degree from ethically sourced leather from a famed tannery in Florence, Italy. Getting pretty close to being a perfect compact bifold wallet, the NODUS Hifold from NODUS Collection is made of full grain veg tanned leather with selective RFID protection so it can still function without pulling every card out. Waterproof?No. Customers should care for the leather on their wallets as they would any other leather. But minimalist wallets do have their downsides. With a smaller overall design minimalist wallets are forced to forgo many features that regular-sized wallets include as standard. The one feature that comes to mind is a coin pouch.

8. OGON Mini Safe Wallet

As any regular to the underground in London (or indeed any major city most likely) the issue of card clash will be an omnipresent one and it can be quite a laborious process to make sure you avoid it during your daily commute but that’s where great accessories like this Nodus Wallet come into play and save you a whole load of hassle. You can also adjust your settings to receive notifications when your phone is left too far behind, or press a button to make your phone ring — even when it's set to silent. I live in a cash-heavy country so I tend to carry a lot of notes and therefore have a lot of change and coins. Much like Bellroy, Status Anxiety also practices in providing sustainability to their wallet range. The manufacturers have chosen my Staus Anxiety are all family-run businesses that have fair working conditions and strict environmental controls for sourcing their leather. One of the main reasons why I included Status Anxiety in this list is they produce a great range of leather wallets made from high-quality materials. Each wallet has a very clean and minimalist appearance with a huge variety to choose from including slim cardholders and larger bi-fold style wallets. My favorite in their collection is their ‘Magic’ Wallet which is highly innovative in the way it allows for access to cash and cards.
