Aviator Aluminum Wallet: Chasing Perfection

Picture
Overview
Aviator is an award winning startup company in Germany.  The Aviator slide is a metal minimalist wallet that has a lot of similarities and a few unique differences to the Ridge Wallet, which is also featured on this website.  There are a lot of options and customizable features about this wallet that set this wallet apart from many of its competitors. Now an evaluation of these features will be performed.

​Key Features
The Aviator slide can be ordered to handle a certain number of cards, but worry not, because this is not set in stone.  Through a quick disassembly, as shown in the YouTube video in this article, the wallet straps can be tightened or loosened based on what the user is carrying around.

Conclusion
All in all I really enjoyed this wallet. This is a great minimalist wallet with a lot of really cool features. The well made metal makes it durable and protects your card against RFID fraud. It is a very similar wallet to the Ridge Wallet that has also been reviewed on this website. Key differences are the viewing window (for showing off a particular card), pull tab for quickly accessing card, and a more durable paint job. Really would recommend checking this wallet out, I enjoyed it when I used it and I can't wait to go back to it
