Carbon fiber wallets. Let's talk about those today. Now, carbon fiber started to kind of get its heyday in the car scene, which I actually really into cars and I really enjoy having carbon fiber. And the reason behind that is it makes them much more lightweight. It's fully formable and much easier to work with, honestly, than metal when it comes to creating performance cars. However, I'm also excited to see it's starting to move into a lot of other things as well, especially into wallets. So in this video, I'm going to be showing you the three
0:29
wallets that I personally like the best that have carbon fiber in them are made almost completely out of carbon fiber, while others use it kind of as an aesthetic accent. Either way, these three wallets have carbon fiber in them. And if you're interested in a wallet like that, let's go with one of these. Before I continue on with this video, I do want to mention each of these wallets was gifted to me by the brand. They did not pay me to create any of this content. However, they were sent out to me for free by the brand. But all opinions are my own. Now my first wallet up on the scene today
0:59
It's going to be my third favorite, and that would be the Aviator Slide Wallet from Evermade. This is an impressive wallet. While it has a really familiar design of having two plates and elastic strap, it sets itself apart by allowing cards to come out the top via a pull strap. It also comes standard with a coin tray, which is really nice for those in Europe that use coins more than like here in the USA. And the design on this is impeccable. It has really, really high quality plates. Everything looks really nice and is fully adjustable to be able to handle one
1:29
to 20 cards. What's impressive is a lot of wallets cap out at around 12 cards. So if you're a high capacity card user, this might be for you. Now, the wallet you see here isn't made completely out of carbon fiber. Instead, it just has this cash clip right here that looks really nice. It is a weaved style carbon fiber plate, and it just looks really nice. And they definitely use it more as an aesthetic change instead of using as completely building out the wallet out of carbon fiber. Now, don't get me wrong. They actually do have a full carbon fiber version. However, this is the acrylic plate
1:59
version. So if you do want full carbon fiber, they do option that as well, which, by the way, links to this product as well as all the ones on this list are going to be down in the description and the top comment. If you wanted to check them out, they are paid links. And if it's something that you do purchase, I do get a commission out of it. Now, the number two wallet on this list that is made out of carbon fiber that I like the best is going to be the extra forged carbon fiber card holder. Now, this is an impressive wallet. It is actually one of the wallets that I've had the longest. And unlike the other wallets on this list, it's
2:29
actually made completely out of carbon fiber instead of acrylic or aluminum or anything like that. It's completely made out of carbon fiber. And I will say I do notice a significant difference between their aluminum version and their carbon fiber version. But to be completely honest, it's still pretty negligible. Now, these wallets hold up to around 12 cards when you include it in the expansion plate. And it has a lot of great features, including this little trigger style button on the bottom that kicks out six cards out the top. This is a really nice feature that a lot of these kind of sandwich style wallets don't have of being able to display
2:59
those cards out in front of you quickly and easily. It is really nice. However, it is a larger wallet than a lot of the other wallets on the market, but not so much that you notice the difference in your pocket. Now, I will say that while I really do like the forged carbon on the extra card holder, I would probably recommend getting the weaved version because the forged carbon, once you kind of get wear and tear on the wall, it actually starts to kind of look like fingerprints. And I've actually had people think that it's fingerprints and not forged carbon. So I'd recommend getting the weaved version just because it's never
3:29
going to look like fingerprints. And then my top choice for the best carbon fiber wallet out there is going to be the Ridge carbon fiber. So this is the wallet that I've actually had the least amount of time, but I have been blown away by the carbon fiber and Ridge has just knocked it out of the park on this. Now, I did notice a slight difference again between the aluminum version that I have as well as the carbon fiber version. However, again, being negligible, it really is an aesthetic difference. And the forged carbon on this is awesome. Now, this is the Aurora wallet, which
3:59
adds in kind of some green aluminum flake into the carbon and it looks so nice. It shimmers
4:05
in the light. It looks really nice. And I also do like that the forged carbon is really
4:10
big flakes. While most other companies forged carbon is kind of smaller flake, Ridge has
4:14
decided to use much bigger flakes. And I feel like it makes a little bit more dramatic of
4:18
a difference, especially with that green flake in there. And I really, really like the Ridge
4:23
carbon fiber wallet. Now, of course, you can also hold up to 12 cards on this. The carbon
4:28
fiber versions of the wallet also do come both with a cash strap as well as a money
4:32
clip. And then, of course, it does come with a screwdriver to be able to take the whole thing apart and adjust it as you do need. But overall, aesthetically speaking, I think
4:39
Ridge has just really knocked it out of the park with this wallet. Those are my top three
4:43
carbon fiber wallets. And I do recommend if you guys want to purchase one of these again
