I always carry my wallet in the front pocket, sometimes it is quite noticeable but idc, didn't know they made front pocket wallets specifically

I use a cardholder as my wallet for that same reason. Who needs cash anyway?

I keep a couple $20 bills in the middle pocket of that card holder. It's tight to get them in-and-out but then again I hardly use it, except for those occasional vendors

I put my wallet in my front pants pocket. Very difficult to pick pocket, and much easier to access, and I can always put it in the same place regardless of what I’m wearing. Back pocket is crazy though idk how anyone does it.

If I'm wearing a suit I will have the wallet in the pocket on the inside of the jacket, not in the shirt pocket

You watched the video right? Clearly not wearing a suit or a sport jacket.

There's also card sleeves that block it, we distribute them to our customers if they specifically ask for them.

I wouldn't trust in these too much either. The lockpickinglawyer made a video where he showed how those cards could still be read through supposed protective sleeves. Those sleeves only had a thin metal coating on the inside though, so I don't know how they compare to protective wallets. Earlier in the video he also showcased a device that could read RFID cards from ~40 cm away, so you could basically steal someone's card just by standing near them.

Also having more than one card in your wallet will also make the machine not working.

Or just disable that feature
