Not worth the price
After a few months of using both the Shield wallet and the key holder, I have to say I’m not overly impressed. When I first got them, I was genuinely looking forward to something that looked sleek, minimal, and supposedly “premium.” Unfortunately, that excitement faded fast once I started using them day to day.
The biggest issue for me is durability. Both the wallet and the key holder pick up scratches far too easily — and I’m not talking about being rough or careless. Just normal use, sitting in my pocket, and they already look worn out. For the price these go for, I expected them to handle daily wear much better.
Out of curiosity, I decided to compare them to a cheap set I bought online — a simple card holder and key holder from AliExpress that cost me around £12 total for both. Honestly? I can’t tell the difference. They feel the same, look the same, and even the finish and materials seem identical. If anything, the cheaper ones have held up just as well, maybe even a little better.
That’s when it really hit me: you’re basically paying a premium price for branding and packaging. Once they’re out of the box, there’s nothing that justifies the cost difference. The Shield stuff might look nice when new, but the moment you start using it, it becomes clear it’s nothing special.
If you’re thinking about buying these, I’d honestly say just save your money and grab something off AliExpress or Amazon instead. You’ll get the same thing for a fraction of the price — without the disappointment.
Looks premium, feels average, and scratches like crazy. Definitely not worth what they’re charging.
