I know that most men do not think about choosing a wallet that he uses. After all, it’s just what your cold cash carries. But for me, a wallet is probably the most important accessory for a person, and the wallet he carries speaks a lot about him and his personal style.
Therefore, no matter what you buy a purse for yourself or as a gift, you really have to spend your time to choose a good one. He will accompany you for many years.
Women are clearly spoiled for choice when it comes to handbags and small leather goods. Each season, designers split their brains to pick up the “It” bag, which will be the subject of every woman’s desire.
As guys, we are not so lucky. We do not have many designers that require our attention. But this does not mean that we have no choice. In fact, there are men's wallets and small leather products that never go out of fashion.
I believe that these timeless classics are very attractive, because there is always an interesting success story. They may not be cheap, but they will certainly increase your status in the styles department.
Meisterstuck by Montblanc
Montblanc turned 100 in 2006, and there are many reasons to celebrate. The success of the legendary Meisterstuck fountain pen, released in 1924, helped Montblanc to become the market leader in decament instruments.
Today, Montblanc is not just a manufacturer of fine writing tools. The company launched its leather products, beautiful watches, glasses, fragrance and even jewelry.
In 1935, when he acquired a manufacturer of leather goods in Germany, Montblanc began to engage in leather goods. Having been on the success of his Meisterstuck pen, Montblanc launched the Meisterstuck leather collection.
Using a black calf endowed with the proprietary “star” logo, Montblanc creates a men's line of thin leather goods that instantly impresses with its predominantly male clientele.
Must de Cartier Cartier
Cartier is one of the best global brands in the world, and its products are associated with very high prices.
1974 was the year of Cartier, which returned to the world of leather goods with the Must de Cartier line. Color burgundy, with a slight hint of raspberry, was chosen as the logical continuation of the red Cartier for this mandatory collection of fine leather goods. Burgundy soon became a new black.
The powerful bordeaux color, iconic double logo and unique gold equipment make the Must de Cartier line a timeless classic.
But honestly, Must de Cartier is not for the faint of heart. Not every guy feels comfortable carrying a burgundy wallet with gold jewelry.
Monogrammed Canvas by Louis Vuitton
With more than 100 years of history, the Louis Vuitton monographic canvas should be a classic of all classics. And no matter what Louis Vuitton does on a monogrammed canvas, it is still sold as hot cakes.
They splattered graffiti. On canvas, they painted red cherries. They painstakingly stitched motifs on denim. And they got Takeshi Murakami, who rethought the motif in the bright colors of the rainbow. Looks like you can't go wrong with a monogrammed canvas.
Unfortunately, they do not have a good set of men's wallets in a monogram canvas, so your choice is rather limited.
Pocone Nylon from Prada
It was in 1978 when Miuccia Prada seized the dusty baggage business from her grandfather. Under her leadership, Prada has become a luxurious power station with a far-reaching influence in the fashion world.
The world noticed when Prada pulled out a handbag from a black, waterproof Pocone nylon. Nylon, with its distinctive triangular logo plate, never looked so good. Miuccia Prada alone is made of luxury nylon.
Of course, I do not expect you to take a popular nylon bag. Prada makes beautiful nylon cowhide wallets for men. Although it is now available in many colors, black is always a classic.
Woven leather from Bottega Veneta
As soon as the second-tier brand in the Gucci Group stable, Bottega Veneta became the rising star of the group. Thanks to her exclusive and elite appeal, Bottega Veneta is ready to become the next Hermes.
Raising popular woven brand bags from the 1970s, Bottega Veneta surpasses the trend of logomania with handmade leather goods made from the finest nap leather.
And in accordance with the slogan of the brand “When your own initials are enough”, you will not be able to see the logo on leather products. But beautiful woven leather, which is very well suited for use, should be enough to announce that you are wearing a bottag.
Line D from ST Dupont
ST Dupont is so well known for its cigarette lighters that it is easy for us to forget that Simon Theissot-Dupont founded the company in 1847, creating leather briefcases for diplomats and businessmen.
In 1985, the classic collection of fine D leather goods was released, featuring the Dupont “D” logo in gold on black calfskin. In recent years, they have also offered the D line, equipped with modern palladium equipment. But whether it is gold or palladium, the D line still looks like it is always timeless.
Burberry Check by Burberry
When we think of Burberry, we invariably think of a red, camel, black and white check that has become noticeable with the brand. It’s hard to imagine that Burberry Check really has a modest beginning. It was introduced in 1920 as a lining to the iconic Burberry coat.
In recent years, Burberry has been undergoing a revival - all thanks to creative director Christopher Bailey, modern interpretation of the classic test, dynamic CEO Rose Marie Bravo and Kate Moss, the star power. You just can't go wrong in such a rich British heritage.
