REVIEW – I’m all the time looking out for my new favourite minimalist pockets. In contrast to many ladies, I don’t carry a handbag or giant bag once I’m out working errands. Many instances, I like to hold my pockets in my denims or jacket pocket, and for that motive, I don’t need an enormous George Costanza-sized pockets. The most recent pockets that I’ve had the prospect to strive is the Puncube Mech Pockets, which is at present in search of funding on Kickstarter. Let’s test it out.

Design and options
The Puncube Mech Pockets is fabricated from 6063 aluminum alloy. The pockets weighs in at 1.8 oz (52g) and is barely 0.31 inches (0.8 cm) thick.
Puncube’s Kickstarter is providing the Mech pockets in three completely different kinds. The model that they despatched me is known as Wasteland and shall be obtainable in 4 colours (Mine, Area, Bathroom, and Desert). I used to be despatched the Mine coloration, which, as you may see, seems to be like uncooked titanium.
The pockets has a capability of as much as 5 non-embossed plastic bank cards and as much as 4 embossed playing cards. The playing cards load into the pockets horizontally, as you see within the picture above, and are held in place by friction.
Inside every Puncube Mech Pockets is a specifically designed automotive lifting mechanism. The Wasteland model of the Mech Pockets has an addictive ratcheting really feel whenever you aspect the highest floor of the pockets upward to raise/eject the playing cards.
When the motion is completed, all of the playing cards raise out of the slot in a fanned structure that makes it simple to retrieve the specified card. Try the video beneath to see the way it works.

What I like in regards to the Puncube Mech Pockets
- Addicting fidget issue
- Selection of designs
- Effectively made
What must be improved?
- The raise mechanism on my prototype pockets was a bit “sticky”
Ultimate ideas
The Puncube Mech Pockets is an fascinating minimalist pockets. I do know that wallets with this kind of lifting mechanism usually are not new. I simply reviewed the Groove Life pockets, which has similarities. However Puncube affords extra fascinating kinds and colours that make their wallets a bit extra “enjoyable” that different manufacturers. So long as Puncube can repair the lifting motion to make it flawless, I feel they’ve a winner on their arms. As soon as they ship me a set of manufacturing wallets, I’ll do an replace to let you realize if the Mech Pockets turns into my new favourite.
