Kristen gave up on conventional wallets and instead fashioned a primitive bill clip out of two credit cards bound together with a rubber band. It looked ridiculous, but it was simple and an amazingly effective solution for someone who travels light but needs their items to be organized and compact.
William is the refined version of this assembly, made with 18 gauge lightweight Aluminum Panels and a 1/8" polyester bound latex rubber Shock Cord with metal U-Pin Closure. Our powder-coater used both a micro fine matte texture and a glossy paint finish which resulted in panels that were slick but not slippery. The wallet self-compresses by design (making it slide easily into any pocket!), while the shock cord can also be used to stash frequently and easily accessed items on the outer face, like a Metrocard or dollar bills. Each aluminum panel is stamped with the WINTERCHECK FACTORY® monogram and designed with a top corner notch to facilitate with loading and opening the wallet.
