Have you ever wanted a small, thin, premium wallet that looks good, functions well and stops credit and identity theft?

                             BANTAM WALLET

The thinnest premium leather customizable RFID blocking wallet.

                              Stop skimmers, scammers and scumbags!




Hi my name is James and I want to show you a wallet I’ve been playing with for a while now. I’ve been using this design for over 11 years and every time someone buys me a wallet, or I think another one looks good, I’ve always come back to this design. It just works!

I love leather. Its natural and sustainable, and I love that leather smell and so decided to finally make a real nice one to share with you guys. Its taken about 2 years to source the right high quality leather and craftsmanship and about 8 months to refine and create the samples. It’s handmade from super tough kangaroo leather which is thinner than cow leather and far stronger than any other leather in the world.

Kangaroo Leather? Kangaroo leather is the toughest leather. Its very thin, durable and light and yet has a higher tensile strength than any other leather. Even when its cut thinner it still keeps most of its strength. This is because the hide contains virtually no fat due to the Australian environment which can cause holes and weakness when tanning.



I really hate those massive wallets that can hurt your back or bulge out from your pants that many people endure with. The Bantam Wallet is not like those small plastic and metal RFID wallets that severely limit what you can put in them and a lot tougher than the wallets that are just 2 pieces of material with an expensive rubber band around it. Most importantly, you won't be embarrassed carrying the Bantam Wallet around as it looks stylish with jeans or a suit!


The Bantam Wallet is super thin at 4mm (about 5/32inches) and still allows for a number of cards and cash to be carried. You CAN stuff a lot of cards, cash, dockets, post-it-notes, whatever you want in there if you really want to, even coins and keys! I’ve only needed about 7 cards and some cash at any time and I store all those dozens of other cards at home that I use only once-in-a-blue-moon.

_______________________________________________________________________

8 Reasons to Support the Bantam Wallet Project:

1 - Its super thin, durable, light and perfect for any sized front, back or inside pocket.

2 - Its made of very high quality leather.

3 - You don’t have to pull it apart and put it together every time you want to use it, or have the risk of it falling apart accidently or from use over time.

4 - It doesn’t expose any cards to prying eyes, even when you open it.

5 - Your cards and cash can’t accidentally slip out.

6 - The contents wont fall out if you drop it.

7 - It has RFID blocking to stop someone skimming your cards and stealing your credit card money, or worse, your identity!

8 - You can customize the RFID feature by blocking the whole wallet, half of it, or none!

_______________________________________________________________________ 

 

Choose from 2 different styles of leather or suede.

Each wallet includes 2x RFID blocking cards.

 

RFID blocking? Increasingly in today's techy world, credit cards, drivers license cards, ID cards, and many other cards have an RFID chip. Radio Frequency Identification allows the transfer of information through electromagnetic induction at very short distances with no wires.
 


We’re ready to go!

Design - At this stage we have the final design which minimises wastage of the leather hide. It also allows for quick production as well.

Leather - The leather we use is ethical, sustainable and government approved and is of a very high quality.

Workshop - We have 2 skilled workshops ready for production and have been making similar items for over 25 years combined and are eager to help us out!

Funds - The money raised will go into buying materials such as the leather, thread, tools, and paying the leather crafters.

I hope you like the Bantam Wallet. Please click on a perk of your choice on the side and if you have any questions just let us know.

Thanks!
James

F.A.Q.

Warranty
30 day money-back, or replacement, due to faulty workmanship. Just send it back to us and we'll refund your money or send you a new one.
  
Does the Bantam R Wallet protect all UHF, HF and LF cards?
The Bantam R Wallet is designed for cards that have low frequency (LF) chips which are used in almost all consumer cards that require tapping the reader to access its functionality. Ultra-high frequency (UHF) and high frequency (HF) chips are usually reserved only for packaging, distribution and shipping purposes.
 
Privacy
All personal information is kept strictly confidential.
 
Social Responsibility
We use government approved and sustainable leather. We use 100% recycled packaging where possible.

(The wallet has 4 cards on one side and 3 cards on the other with 5 folded notes.)

(and the money shot...)
