SLAB Funding Continues to Grow After Campaign Enters Second Week

MONTREAL, Feb. 11, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- The SLAB magic travel wallet has now been on Kickstarter for almost two weeks. Having already raised over $3,000, the campaign still has 25 days to go. SLAB is an RFID protected magic wallet made of the customer's choice of either aluminum or titanium.

After creator Vladimir Pashkov's experience with frequent travel and living abroad, he found that there really wasn't a great wallet on the market for travelers who needed convenience and safety. With this problem in mind, he created SLAB. His wallet contains several unique features that set it apart from the current market.

While traditional wallets tend to be thick and cumbersome, SLAB is just 11 millimeters thick. Its design encourages carrying essentials smarter while traveling, with precisely carved slots for two credit cards, two SIM cards, and two MicroSD cards. Because SLAB is thin and sleek it is less noticeable when being worn in pockets or clothing. The wallet offers ample room to carry cash, but Pashkov suggests that cash should be carried in a specific manner.

"The first thing pickpockets look for is a target," said Pashov. "When you are carrying a fat wallet or opening it in public places and shuffling through your bills, you immediately become a target. SLAB allows you to conceal big bills in one compartment, while you open the compartment that contains smaller bills."

Because SLAB is a magic wallet, it allows carriers to easily separate and conceal different bills as Pashkov describes. Twelve rare earth magnets and carefully attached pieces of elastic allow this functionality. When crafting the wallet, Pashkov also kept quality in mind. His backers are guaranteed lifetime elastic replacement to combat the threat of wear and tear over the years.

Backers still have access to several early bird specials and options if they are interested in becoming SLAB owners. The three-plate wallet pricing starts at just $75, but this price is only for those who catch the early bird deal. Pashkov also offers a credit card sized SIM and memory card holder starting at just $25 and a two-plate SLAB starting at $55.
