DIFWear RFID Blocking Wallet

What it is: A men's wallet that prevents hackers from remotely reading and copying information from your RFID-enabled credit cards and other ID's.

Why we love it: There are more than 320 million RFID-enable cards in circulation. If you have any RFID-enabled cards, you are at risk from identity theft. Using an inexpensive scanner, attackers can steal your data from as little as 20 feet away. That is why the U.S. government requires all employees to use RFID-blocking wallets, passport cases, and name badges. The DIFWear RFID Blocking Wallet is one of the select products that has received the government's seal of approval. A special thin mesh layer embedded in the wallet blocks both low and high frequency skimming attacks, giving you peace of mind.

Who we'd give it to: Security-conscious guys who travel for business or pleasure.

Where to get it: From Amazon.com for a secure $23.42.
