While many options exist for extremely durable bags, watches, and plenty other EDC gear, wallets are a different story. It’s a bit odd considering they carry your (arguably) most important and valuable essentials. Sure you can find wallets made of metal or carbon fiber to keep your cards protected from accidental drops or even RFID-skimming, but once water enters the equation, all bets are off. If you’re the type of EDCer who doesn’t leave the security of their valuables up to chance, you probably know of the brand Pelican. They make some of the best storage solutions for gear that’s absolutely worth protecting, like expensive cameras and outdoor survival gear. Now, they’ve brought their expertise in manufacturing overbuilt, bombproof cases to your pocket with the G5 RF Field Wallet. It’s a crushproof, waterproof, and even “hackerproof” solution to store your most valuable essentials.
The G5 RF Field Wallet looks less like your traditional bifold wallet and more like an impenetrable shell, constructed with an aircraft grade aluminum exterior. The lightweight metal helps shave grams to keep it pocket friendly while lending to the wallet’s water-, crush- and impact resistance. It also helps it fend off RFID signals, blocking attempts to steal your personal information from cards you’re carrying.
The wallet goes beyond material choices to offer this level of protection, too. The clamshell design keeps shut with a secure snap-latch system that inspires confidence when closed and requires deliberate force to disengage. This closure mechanism, combined with a gasketed O-ring seal, makes the wallet waterproof to an IP67 rating, allowing it to withstand submersion in water for up to 1 meter for about 30 minutes. Both the latch and the hinge of the wallet use steel pins, rather than aluminum or brass ones like you’d find on similar offerings, to ensure maximum durability at potential failure points with moving parts.
Once you open the wallet it lays flat in a vertical layout, offering two storage compartments lined with a soft and grippy elastomer material to carry your items. The top compartment features an elastomeric strap, ready to carry your credit, debit and ID cards. The bottom section keeps smaller items like folded cash, loose change, or a spare key in check with a perforated elastomer “mesh” pocket. Last but not least, a rear rubber cash strap provides additional external storage for cash overflow and quick access to things that need less protection.
The G5 RF Field Wallet features a built-in lanyard attachment point and included wrist lanyard for added security and multiple carry options wherever your adventures take you. Keep your money and information protected from water, virtual thieves and heavy impact with the Pelican G5 RF Field Wallet. It’s available in Black or Silver for $39.95 exclusively from Pelican at the link below.
