Stay safe while you stay stylish - RFID

When you’re out and about with your new Jekyll & Hide leather bag or leather accessory, the last thing you want to be worrying about is your data being stolen.

It may be the furthest thing from your mind, especially if you’re confident that all your items are safe inside your bespoke leather product, but radio-frequency identification (RFID) makes it possible for criminals to access personal information that has been stored electronically..

 

RFID uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags that can be attached to your belongings. In short, it means that any personal data stored on identity documents or bank cards – like your address, contact number, account or employee information – can be accessed, cloned and used. Your security could be compromised without you even knowing it.

But the good thing is that, if you’re carrying a Jekyll & Hide product, then you don’t have to worry about this happening to you. Every one of our wallets and bags is lined with a specially engineered RFID blocking fabric that is impenetrable to harmful radio waves.

Our bags have been engineered with a fully protected RFID lined pocket, identified by its unique colour lining, and we have incorporated RFID technology into the lining of all our wallets..

 

And we have done all this without compromising our inherent style and quality. So you can go about your life, living your adventures, with the peace of mind that all your personal data is safe and secure.
