Maybe I'm just too old school, but who exactly is going to buy this?

I'm with red lined on this. Maybe Oakland thugs are a little less intuitive than the ones we have in Pittsburgh, but I'd think the guy with the $150 designer wrist wallet is an easier target than me with my trusty velcro tri-fold

@Dave I would say ALOT less intuitive! I saw a women wearing one at a concert, and it wasn't as obtrusive as it looks. Plus with knitted arm warmers being in vogue again this just looks like the S&M version :)

Well the company is based in Oakland CA. And if you have ever been there, you would understand that a stealth wallet for traveling is not a bad idea .

So if you're wearing a t-shirt, your wallet is totally visible, and if you wear a long sleeve shirt, you have a huge lump on your forearm. I don't see the logic here.
