The Micro Soft Shell is one of the thinnest and most durable wallets we’ve reviewed yet. If you’re in the market for a thin bifold wallet, the Micro should be on your short list. Their other wallets are also worth taking a look at which feature same material it other slim designs.

NATO Watch Strap Review
The NATO-style watch strap began as an innovation made for the armed forces by the British Ministry of Defense in 1973. The military needed a strap that was versatile, secure, and could handle spring bar failures no matter what the troops threw at it. The solution: using a one length nylon strap which wrapped underneath the watch case twice that offered resistance against ripping and tearing in the field.
Bellroy Note Sleeve & Slim Sleeve Review
Bellroy’s Sleeve product line is a colorful assortment of well-made wallets with thoughtful designs and feature layouts. Both wallets are modern takes on the traditional bi-fold design. It’s surprising how thin these wallets stay no matter how many cards, bills, and coins are held inside.
REVIEW: Trayvax Armored Summit
The Armored Summit is a fine wallet. It definitely geared toward minimalists out there since it’s design pretty much forces users to carry on the lower end an average man’s carry. If you fall within that category, you’ll be hard pressed to find a wallet as slim as this one.

The endless array of options out there can be daunting when you start looking into buying your first automatic watch. With hundreds of watch brands and styles, there are endless possibilities if price is of no concern, but the truth is that price will play a huge factor for many of us when deciding which watch to purchase.

Whether you’re an EDC fanatic, an ocean adventurer, or a fast-rising company man, we’ve got you covered with what I – and much of the watch community – consider some of the reliable and versatile budget-friendly automatic watches out there.

Dash Bando Wallet Review
The Dash Bando wallet has a unique flat design that has the ability to store many cards in a very slim profile. The pull tab slot is also a really nice touch (I’m a big fan of these in wallets). It however falls short in the finishing department with loose stitching. The cash band holds bills a little too loosely for my liking. I would not recommend this for front pocket carry, it’s a bit on the larger side and wont fit well into smaller front pockets.
Hands On: BOLDR Venture
I don’t like smaller watches. I REALLY don’t like smaller watches. This is what I kept telling myself when I received the new Venture field watch from BOLDR and strapped it on, but for some reason the voices in my head seemed to get quieter the longer I wore it.
Trayvax Contour Wallet Review
Trayvax stands behind their wallet with pride – and it’s for a good reason. The material selection and build quality is above average and the design is simple and intuitive to use. Backed by a 65 year warranty (which even offers out of warranty repairs at cost plus shipping) this wallet could easily last someone a lifetime.
