Panel is an ultra slim wallet that's designed to do away with all of that bulky extra material, while still providing storage space for just the essentials. The lightweight wallet is made up of a metal plate and a silicone band, providing the perfect blend of stability and a good grip. Because the back plate is made of metal, this means that it can be produced in a range of finishes and metal styles to suit your style.
The creator of Panel, Parson's design student Ben Avery Lang is currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter to bring his design to the masses, aiming to raise a total of $20,000. A donation of $25 will secure you one of these slim wallets in your choice of either clear or black.
