I Had No Idea What To Get My Boyfriend… Until I Found Ekster
Why are guys so hard to shop for?! Especially on Valentine’s Day.
I get my boyfriend, Tom, a big present for his birthday in January, so figuring out what to give him on Valentine’s Day is always challenging.
This year I got him a smart coffee machine for his birthday, so I figured continuing the tech-y theme would be a good idea, but I wanted to get him something he would actually use. He has an up-to-date cellphone, a smart TV, and now a smart coffee machine, what more could he need?!
Then I came across Ekster and their smart wallets, and my first thought was how could a wallet be smart?
I dug a little deeper and I was impressed–they have some of the most innovative features I’ve come across in a long time. For starters, all of their wallets are virtually un-losable thanks to the Ekster Tracker Card which allows you to track your wallet worldwide with Ekster’s global lost-and-found network when you lose it.
The Tacker Card can be added to any Ekster wallet and can even be paired with Google Assistant, Alexa, or Siri. Not to mention, it’s solar-powered and only needs 3 hours of sunlight to last for 2 months. Tom is always misplacing his wallet so I knew this would be perfect for him!
Tom has gotten super into security recently, so the fact that Ekster’s wallets have RFID blocking technology to stop your card data from being stolen is definitely something he would appreciate.
The next challenge I faced was trying to choose which Ekster wallet to go with. The Parliament wallet stores 9 cards comfortably and has a cool pop-up feature–with the click of a button you gain easy access to all cards. The cash strap feature is also handy.
Ekster’s Modular Bifold Wallet has a classic design along with a removable cardholder that is held in place with strong magnets allowing for extra optional space. Their Aluminum Cardholder is made from space-grade aluminum, holds up to 15 cards, includes the card pop-up feature, and an expandable backplate that provides extra storage while maintaining a slim design.
The great thing about all of the Ekster wallets is that they’re super slim but still have a lot of storage options. Tom is always complaining about how his wallet won’t fit into his front pocket comfortably, but I know that wouldn’t be a problem with Ekster.
After much debate I decided on the Aluminium Cardholder in Graphite– I figured it went the best with his modern style. When it arrived I was so happy to see that the material was of good quality– sleek and sturdy. I knew choosing Ekster was a great decision.
Tom’s reaction when I gave him the wallet was the best. He was amazed by the card pop-up feature and the expandable backplate and just how much he could fit into such a slim wallet–up to 15 cards?! He couldn’t believe it. He usually carries his 7 essential cards and always has some cash tucked into the cash strap for emergencies.
He’s already made great use of the Tracker Card when misplacing his wallet around the house. He loves it! Ekster’s inventions are amazing, I know I’ll be shopping there again– I’m thinking of getting the Modular Bifold for my Dad’s birthday next month
