Leather Wallets vs. Carbon Fiber Wallets: The Pros and Cons

 To get a leather wallet or a carbon fiber wallet; that is the question. It really comes down to whether or not you’re looking for the best mens wallet  and if you are, then the answer is carbon fiber wallets. But why, you ask? Let’s take a look at how carbon fiber wallets are the best wallets for men having difficulties deciding between leather wallets and carbon fiber wallets.

 

For Strength & Durability

Pro: Carbon Fiber Wallets Have the Highest Tensile Strength

If you’re looking for the best wallets for men that won’t wear out before you're ready to retire it, carbon fiber wallets are the better option. Sure, leather is a highly durable fabric but carbon fiber wallets have the highest tensile strength available on the market.

Pro: Carbon Fibers Wallets are Virtually Indestructible

Our carbon fiber wallets use Carbitex CX6 Carbon fiber which is virtually indestructible. So, whatever you get up to once your 9 to 5 job is done, whether it’s taking your motorcycle for a rip or drinking some whiskey on the rocks at a local pub until the morning hours, your wallet is going to keep up with you.

Pro:  Kangaroo Leather is the Strongest and Lightest Leather

Leather wallets have been the traditional choice for many years and that’s because leather lasts. However, not all leather is created equally and that’s not to mention that not all leathers have the same benefits.

Our carbon fiber wallets are combined with exotic kangaroo leather which is the strongest and lightest leather available. So, not only do you get optimal durability and strength but you also don’t have to worry about your wallet feeling like a rock in your pocket. Kangaroo leather allows you to have the best of both worlds.

Pro: Kangaroo Leather is Water Repellent and Abrasion Resistant

The benefits of kangaroo leather are definitely up there and when combined with carbon fiber, you can’t go wrong. Kangaroo leather is often hailed as being a highly-breathable material that is also water repellent and abrasion resistant. So, if you don’t think the carbon fiber strength is enough to keep your wallet in one-piece, a carbon fiber kangaroo leather wallet is certain to do the trick.

Pro: Our Carbon Fiber Wallets Use Aerospace-Grade Titanium Alloy

Carbon fiber wallets are insanely durable and strong; carbon fiber wallets designed with kangaroo leather are even more so. However, carbon fiber wallets designed with kangaroo leather and infused with titanium alloy are at the top of the list in terms of strength and durability.

Our carbon fiber wallets come with a signature logo plate made from aerospace-grade titanium alloy. This material is 30% stronger than steel and although it’s only on the logo plate, this small detail makes our collection of men’s wallets the perfect hybrid of luxury men’s wallets and tactical wallets.

 

For Aesthetics 

Pro: Carbon Fiber Wallets Have a Distinct Appearance

When it comes to aesthetics, there’s no denying that both leather wallets and carbon fiber wallets have this element down pat. Both are luxury materials (especially kangaroo leather) and each have a distinct appearance that can’t be found anywhere else.

So, this one truly comes down to preference. Carbon fiber wallets are always great in the aesthetics department, whereas leather wallets can change from style to style particularly if you’re shopping for cheap leather.

As a rule of thumb, carbon fiber wallets are masculine and elegant and leather wallets can follow in suit as long as you take time to familiarize yourself with the product and carbon fiber wallets designed with kangaroo leather are the jackpot of the lottery.

Pro: Carbon Fiber Wallets Have a Look That’s Nearly Impossible to Replicate

For the men who like to place importance on what they’re wearing and who like to indulge in luxury men’s wallets, carbon fiber wallets are definitely the better option for you. To put it simply, leather is an easy material to fake.

Carbon fiber, on the other hand, is nearly impossible to replicate. So, when shopping for carbon fibers, not only will you know that what you’re getting is the real deal but you’ll also know your dollar is being spent on real luxury men’s fashion.

 

For Comfort

Pro: Carbon Fiber Wallets Are Exceptionally Lightweight

We’re going to sound like a broken record here but the lightweight benefits of carbon fiber wallets are worth being mentioned again and again. CX6 carbon fiber is 10 times stronger and 5 times lighter than steel. It’s also 8 times stronger and 1.5 times lighter than aluminum. Translate that into simple terms and your carbon fiber wallet won’t be dragging you down.

Pro: Carbon Fiber Kangaroo Leather is Extremely Soft

This benefit of using our carbon fiber wallets is unique to our brand, as we combine the CX6 carbon fiber with kangaroo leather. Although carbon fiber wallets are soft, it’s the exotic leather we use that takes the cake.

Kangaroo leather wallets  are extremely soft to touch. So, if you hate that scratchy feeling on some wallets or the leather texture of others, you’ll be happy with any one of our best men’s wallets.

 

For Protection

Pro: Our Carbon Fiber Wallets Have RFID Data Armor

Not only are carbon fiber wallets designed with the highest tensile strength available on the market, but our men’s luxury wallets are also infused with RFID armor. These are pieces made of cryptalloy foil, RFID shielding and EMF blocking to keep your personal data and payment cards safe from electronic pickpocketers.

And if you think this is an unnecessary feature of luxury men’s wallets, think again! You can be electronically pick-pocketed simply by someone walking past you. It’s shocking how easy it is for people to steal your information and right through your pocket and wallet. So, if nothing else, always opt for RFID men’s wallets.

  

Strength? Check.

Durability? Check.

Aesthetics? Check.

RFID Protection? Check.

 

Carbon fiber wallets are the best wallets for men, particularly those who like to get a little wild when they aren’t indulging in a luxury lifestyle. Our collection is the perfect combination of tactical wallets turned luxury men’s wallets, making them the perfect wallets that can be taken straight from the boardroom to the bar.
