Machined Minimalist Wallets

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

AURORA Introduces Secure Carrying Without Rubber Bands or Mechanisms

— March 21, 2016 — Fashion
If you are tired of your back hurting from poorly thought-out accessory designs, you need to check out the AURORA machined minimalist wallet.

The AURORA machined minimalist wallet uses a solid metal frame construction and steel RFID Plate with a machined 301 stainless steel spring clip. The frame is offered in both 6061­ T6 aluminum and 6Al­-4V grade 5 titanium. The aluminum frame comes with a black MIL­A­8625 type III hard coat anodized finish. The titanium frame comes with a blasted surface finish. All steel components are coated with a tough wear resistant PVD AlTiN coating.

AURORA's designers were tired of bulky leather wallets that did not last. They weren't interested in inexpensive elastics, O-rings or complex mechanisms that fail on all the other minimalist wallets. They wanted something that simply lasted forever that could be carried every day and that meant they had to design and make it in the USA.

The wallet will hold between one and six cards securely with additional room for cash. With a minimum number of parts and no complex mechanisms or cheap elastic bands, owners can be sure their belongings will stay safe inside. It also happens to be RFID safe. The best part is that there's a warranty for life that protects from defects in materials, assembly or design.
