Most MagSafe wallets out there fall into the more casual, slim line variants that are designed to hold a few cards. But some folks need a more rugged and versatile solution than that, and that’s where the new Pelican Shield MagSafe RFID Blocking Wallet comes in. Taking on a far more rugged pouch-style form-factor, the new release just hit Amazon at $80 and is now seeing its first price drop. After clipping the on-page coupon, the official Case-Mate Amazon storefront will sell you one for $63.99 shipped. That’s certainly not a particularly affordable solution, but this one is made to take a beating, with an aluminum RFID-blocking build and an aramid fiber design held together by screws in all four corners. Alongside the military-grade drop protection, it is ready to connect to MagSafe-compatible devices while providing enough space for five cards, cash, and some smaller accessories, receipts, and more. Head below for additional details.
While not quite as high-tech, the previous-generation Pelican MagSafe wallet does deliver a somewhat similar experience for less. You can land one for under $40 on Amazon after you clip the on-page coupon right now. This provides a similar capacity, with a slightly different design, eschewing the metal RFID protection and aramid fibers for a more traditional hardshell treatment.
Another particularly rugged option that delivers a more slimline approach is the ROKFORM model we took a hands-on look at earlier this year – it is built-like a sleek black tank and is certainly worth a look for anyone who wants something made of solid metal.
But if a nice Apple leather model will work better, both the OG model and the newer Find My variant are seeing some price drops right now from $27 Prime shipped. This new silicone elago model at $17 might be worth considering as well.
