A wallet is an accessory that a man always carries with him. It becomes a part of his daily life. Over time, it gives him not only practical value, but also emotional value. When choosing a wallet, you should take into account your style of dress, your habits and the number of credit/payment cards and documents.
A wallet must be functional, so make sure it has enough compartments. A foldable model is compact but roomy. It fits perfectly in your pocket. It matches both an elegant suit and classic jeans and T-shirt. It is usually double or triple folded. When choosing a wallet, think about what you want to put in it.
If you like vintage style, opt for the Sfumato version. It is a unique painting technique, which consists in gradual mixing of colors, giving the objects a unique effect
If you value style and comfort, reach for a wallet consisting of three parts. It has comfortable compartments for cards, bills and coins.
Wallets are available in different colors, patterns and sizes thanks to which you are sure to find a model matching your needs and preferences
A simple and neat wallet with a uniform color or even minimalistic style will work in every situation. The collection is dominated by black, navy blue and black models. They fit to every styling. You can use them for everyday, as well as for special occasions
Before you go about buying a new wallet, clean out the old one; get everything out of it. Throw out things you won’t need, such as old receipts, used public transportation tickets or expired gift cards. Remember to check your wallet regularly. This will help you get rid of unnecessary items and save a lot of space.
Now that you know how many small items you will be carrying, you can choose the right wallet. If you use a lot of credit cards, opt for a tri-fold model with multiple compartments. On the other hand, if you only carry a few cards and few bills, reach for a two-compartment model. And if you only carry cash, look for a small, handy purse.
The classic wallet is leather, but you don’t have to limit yourself to this material. You can experiment with other available options such as cotton, polyester and canvas. The important thing is to match the wallet to your needs and requirements.
Are you looking for a wallet that will last for years? Then choose a model from a reputable brand, made of high-quality material such as cowhide. If you often carry your wallet to work and you work in a bank, pay attention to dark colors, such as black, navy blue, brown, graphite. Or maybe you work in the creative industry? In this case, opt for a model decorated with a colorful pattern
Some wallets have transparent pockets for ID documents, public transport tickets and driving license. Thanks to them you will save a lot of time and nerves when you are asked to show the appropriate document.
If you want to protect yourself from fraudsters, opt for a model with RFID blocking technology. This way you will prevent thieves from reading your credit card data and other documents. This feature is very useful if you are in the habit of putting your wallet in the back pocket of your pants. It will also work great when you are traveling. Admittedly, such a wallet will cost a bit more, but it is worth the investment if you often use your payment cards
If you prefer a minimalistic design and you do not have much money with you, you may decide to use a money clip. It is usually made of plastic, flexible metal or leather. Thanks to it, you do not have to worry about losing your money. However, it is worth noting that it does not protect them as well as classic wallets.
Modern, minimalist models combine features of a bill clip and a credit card case. They will work perfectly if you do not have much space for a wallet. Finally, remember to match the accessory to your budget.
