EksterParliament Men's Wallet | RFID Blocking Leather Minimalist Wallet | Slim Wallet for Men - Designed for Quick Card Access with Push Button

Really good quality. Nice leather, and great card storage. It doesn't store a lot of money though, so it'll be perfect for persons who use a lot of cards instead of cash. It's small design makes it fit perfectly into your pocket. It does offer Rfid protection, so that's a plus. The card release releases all the cards in an organized manner, so you can see and choose the card you want rather than going though each one individually. Definitely recommend.

So I’ve always had a traditional leather bifold or trifold wallet in the past and they’ve been great...however I started having more issues with my lower back and one of the things that my physical therapist said could be aggravating it was sitting on my jam packed full wallet for long periods of time during the day. Just so happens at this time I was in the market for a new wallet, so I took this opportunity to look into the “minimalist” kind.This of course meant that I’d have to downsize...which I was reluctant to do at first because how was I ever to get along without the three year old business card of the AC guy that came out that one time...or the countless others...but one by one, I went through it all and came to the conclusion that I only really “need” my credit/bank cards, drivers license, various insurance cards, and opted for a type of tracking card incase I misplace my new wallet. I know that Ekster has their own tracking card, however I already had a Tile on my key ring and therefor was already using their app on my phone so I decided to give the Tile Slim a try (as it is about the size of two credit cards put together).So after doing days of research, I decided that the Ekster Parliament would fit my needs as a wallet I could store all my essential things in and also as one that would fit nicely and compactly in my front pocket. This wallet also has RFID blocking in the compartment that holds your cards...so that was also another ‘check’ this product had on my needs list.The wallet itself seems to be made really well and the leather is nice and soft (exactly the same as I’d expect to find when looking at a traditional one). The card compartment has a nice feature at the bottom where a simple push of your finger inward while holding, will make the cards inside stair step up to where you can choose the one you are needing at that moment. I’ve seen where others have said that the feature makes all their cards come up in a stack and all I can say is that this isn’t the case with the one I have. I would imagine the amount of cards in the compartment would dictate how it would work. I myself have five and some have raised lettering and numbers and some don’t. I have found that how far the cards come up can be adjusted by how fast you click the lever in. If I push it in slowly with little force, they will come up just enough to see what I need...however if I click it with a fast press, they will stick up to how they appear in my picture above. Hopefully this mechanism will last for the long haul...at its price, it should...but only time will tell. The only other thing worth noting is that even with the few cards that I have in the wallet, the ones that are not in the holding tray, it does make the wallet not want to close. I do see that the manufacturer states that this will be the case until the leather naturally stretches and takes shape, which makes sense, however even if it doesn’t, the pros of this product outweigh the cons to me and I wouldn’t send it back because of it. For me anyway, it only stays open a slight bit while on the nightstand instead of closing flat but when I put it in my pocket, it keeps it closed all the way. I have included pictures with my Apple Watch to show size of this product and also its size compared to the Tile Slim...which I keep in the back opening.All in all, I would definitely recommend this product if you’re in the market for a minimalist wallet but are still wanting that leather feel and extra storage that you would have been accustomed to with a traditional wallet. I will update this review if I start to have any issues with the mechanism or any other issue that isn’t self inflicted. Also wanted to mention that the wallet came in a nicely packaged black box that was plastic wrapped. If you receive one in which the box isn’t wrapped in plastic, I’d be weary that it is probably a return and would seek a replacement....just my advice.

I really like the Ekster Parliament wallet—the design is sleek, the leather feels premium, and the RFID-blocking feature is a nice touch. The card pop-up mechanism is super convenient, making it easy to access my most-used cards quickly.However, my main issue is that it feels bulky when you put cash in the money strap. If you carry more than a couple of bills, it starts to lose that “minimalist” feel. It’s still a great wallet, but if you tend to carry cash often, just keep in mind it might not be as slim as expected.Overall, a stylish and functional wallet, just not the best if you regularly carry cash.

Hello! Random TalesOfArk Review! So I got this wallet when it was on "sale". If you had bought it on their website it would've been a bit cheaper, and maybe would've came with a money clip, but I decided that I rather have 2 day shipping and Amazon Refund policy in case the wallet wasn't something I enjoyed or wasn't to my liking. Also for comparison I will also upload the wallet I was using before for 2-3yrs, that I got from Marshalls. So I been daily driving this for a week or so and it's been working great! I love how sleek it is and the color coordination is pretty good. Mines is like Gray with highlights of Black, and it's pleasing to the eyes, although some of you may not mind, but I do. Imagine if you had a pee yellow color with like hot pink (ew). Fashion is true end game. I prefer the Parliament, because I wanted something than just a hunk of metal/plastic in my pocket. So it has a nice cover where I can keep my most used card on the back, while I use the money strap to hold my ID for easy access. There are also 2 inside flaps that I use for like my Boba coupon stamp, and Zoo membership. I keep my not so used often cards in the "Pop Up" box, for like when I need them, but not cards that I would need all the time. So far the mechanisms for the pop up hasn't been broken yet, but then again I am not really playing with it. Oh the amount of cards I put in is like 4, so it's not at the limit. As for cards falling out, yes they do fall out, BUT you would have to shake it really hard. So I'm not sure why people are so upset about it, I don't see how in everyday life where you have to be shaken really hard and have your wallet out for you to lose your card. As for the leather material, LOOK. Real talk, I have no idea what leather, real leather, fake leather, psudo leather or whatever feels like or do I care really, so I can't really comment on that. Well can't really comment on much else since I tend to forget about stuff, but even if you buy it on Amazon, you can still get the Ekster 1-yr warranty. Although, it's annoying how they can't share with you their website, which seems really suspicious to me tbh, I try asking support but they're so vague about it like it was some kinda rules. All in all, I enjoy the wallet, what I would suggest for an upgrade, maybe a proper place to put my ID a clear flap or something would be nice.P.S: I'll update if anything bad happens with the wallet, if you hear nothing than it's still going good.
