13 Best Tactical Wallets (Review) in 2021

Jordan Carter
This product guide was written by Jordan Carter
Published March 9, 2018

Tactical wallets don’t waste a single square centimeter of space—beyond holding your cash and cards, these have function on every single corner, and make good on every shred of fabric or material used. Blades, bottle openers and RFID-blocking technology, and more—function and flair collide in the ultimate item that you never knew you needed. Once you see these, you won’t be able to live without them.

The Gerber 30-001492 Barbill Wallet is a well-rounded option that will ensure it meets all of your tactical wallet needs. The slimline design allows it to fit discreetly into any pocket, lessening the risk of theft while still keeping it secure, and as it can hold up to seven cards, you will have something for all demands. This can include your trust credit or debit card, but also gym membership and your ID card so you can get into the office on time.

The elastic band allows it to fit cards of various widths and sizes, which unlike bulky traditional wallets means that you can squeeze in anything you need. Furthermore, the heavy-duty stainless steel frame ensures durability and protection, keeping your cards safe and secure from potential damage should it fall from your pocket or get caught in between a door. Likewise, the security bumper will keep the cards firmly in place.

The integrated bottle opener is a useful feature that takes the hassle out of those after-work drinks, but it’s also useful for camping and hiking scenarios, meaning there’s no need to over-pack and bulk up your bag. As far as tactical wallets do, it balances functionality and quality perfectly. You may also be interested in some of these cool zipper wallets from our list, so check them out.

The Magpul DAKA Everyday Wallet is a product that builds on past designs to ensure you now have the ultimate in tactical wallet technology without making it look too much like an EDC tool. For those who want the best of both worlds, this is certainly an attractive design, while even those who aren’t convinced just yet will still find plenty to love about it.

Its revolutionized construction means there is now greater functionality and space. With this, you can forget about bulky wallets or even tight pockets. The slim design slots perfectly into your pack pocket, front pocket, or chest pocket, and holds up to seven cards, while the minimum is three if you want to make the most of it. Its welded seams also ensure durability. The permanent seals mean your cards and cash are safe from water damage and the entire wallet is also both chemical resistant and non-hygroscopic.

Finally, the rounded corners will top everything off. This makes it easy to slide in and out of the pocket without it catching on the fabric, keeping your pants – whether jeans or slacks – safe from tears. Ideal for discreet travel or standard EDC demands, it’s a fantastic option to consider.

The GOVO Badge Holder/Wallet is available with three colors to choose from, including Tan, Black, and Blue, so you have some options and can even purchase multiple colors to add some variety to your everyday carry needs. Once you’ve selected your favorite color, you can start thinking about functionality, and this has it in spades.

We’ll start off with the metal pocket clip that ensures security and will save you from worrying if you’ve lost your wallet. You can also wear it with a lanyard if you don’t have pockets. There are also four card slots, giving you enough space for essentials such as credit and debit cards, as well as anything else you need everyday. Its spring-loaded card holding system is reliable and also takes the hassle out of picking the right card out every time, allowing smooth release to make payments or flash your ID.

It is durable but also lightweight, and as you’re no doubt purchasing a tactical wallet for its discretion qualities, this should be considered an essential feature that you can’t miss out on. It is compatible with a broad range of applications, too, so it won’t matter if you need to use it at work or out shopping, you’ve got a product that provides endless reliance with no trouble.

Gerber GDC Money Clip

The Gerber GDC Money Clip is a marvelously practical choice for anybody who needs to do their weekly grocery shop in the morning but also make sure they can build a wilderness shelter in the afternoon. This capability comes in the form of a built-in fixed blade knife that could help you out of a sticky situation and be the difference between a wet and chilly night and one where you can feel safe underneath a shelter.

The blade comes with a finger slot and serrated thumb rest, which works just like the handle on a regular tactical knife would. This makes it safe to use and also reduces the risk of slipping. Even with the blade, there are no fears about cutting yourself, and you can store it easily in your pocket for general use. This is also enhanced by the slim design, but even with such a compact style, you can still fit up to five cards inside so you can ensure you have everything you need.

The pocket clip will keep it secure and stop the wallet from falling out when on the move, and if you’re purchasing this as a gift, either to a friend, relative, or yourself, the surface is engravable so you can personalize it however you like.

The Toughergun Magnetic Front Pocket Money Clip is undoubtedly the best tactical wallet, and perhaps even the best wallet that you can purchase right now.

It blocks any signals that target credit cards, while the 4 Rare Earth magnets will also keep your hard-earned cash safe and sound whether you’re treating your buddy to a round or giving your kids their weekly allowance.
