What wallet do you have?

I like my wallets leather, with plenty of space for useless bits of plastic, ids, cash and coins (preferably with a zipped compartment for the coins).

But the ones I use never seem to last longer then a couple of months before falling apart. Is it time to give up on leather, or do I just need to go for a better quality?

search easecase on ebay.

Never used one and never will, pockets are fine.

^That’s my bad mother ****!

My leather wallets last for years.

HTH.

Yeah I’m on my second leather wallet in the last 10+ yrs. Both were/are used a lot.

Mulberry, holds eight cards plus notes. £50 in the factory outlet in Bicester. I try and keep it out of the back pocket when cycling to avoid moisture. I suspect the need to hold coins is not doing much for longevity. “What’s in your wallet?”

You want an Oakley kevlar wallet.

Had mine for 5 or 6 years and it just won’t wear out.

Hermès make the best imho. Or Longchamp for cheap alternative.

Check Nixon wallets. I’ve got a Big Note model, leather, nicely made, still going strong after 3 years.

Oakley Kevlar wallet for everyday/biking (as stu says it won’t wear out, had mine approx 10 years)

Paul Smith for all other occasions

Why are you putting coins in a wallet? Surely that’s a purse?

it was a freebee with some corporate bull shit on it

Leather jobby from El Corte Inglés about 12 years ago, quite expensive I think (present) and very good quality.

Old Pace cycles one – its got to be over 10 years old now!

My current one is a John Lewis that my wife bought me a couple of years ago. Wearing well and loads of slots etc.

Mustard

An (empty) bangers and mash leather one.

CHB with easecase is winning me over at the moment, I don’t see the point in spending more on the wallet then I’m going to put in there 😀

what wallet do i have? an empty one i tell ya 🙁

A Mulberry leather one

I have an animal leather one that cost me about £20 5 years ago and is still going strong and looking good

A Fender one I got from TK Maxx years ago for 99p.

a nylon quicksilver 10yr old one.
it is empty…….. 😉

Another factory seconds Mulbery here (£30), 10 years plus on this one and still going strong but no coins in it – infact lately no much in it at all 🙁 . James has had an Animal Nylon for 5 years with coins in it gives it hell and still intact. Like the look of the Paul Smith and one has a coin pocket! But £149 !!!

What does everyone do with their coins then if not put them in your wallet? Pocket?

Put them in your pocket until you get home, then leave them at home.

do you sit on your coins – you know how bad that is for your hips/spine ?

I’ve got a Fox leather one, it still looks new and must be 8 years old.

Coins go in back pocket. I hate having large objects in my pockets, so a big fat wallet with half a lb of change in it is a big no.

oh coins = purse.

Paul Smith with a naked lady inside and bits of purple stitching

fishing around inside a wallet looking for change makes you look like an old lady paying for a packet of mints in the newsagents

Another Mulberry owner…problem getting on for nearly 15 years old but still going strong.

I am a student, notes aren’t always in plentiful supply. And I don’t have a cheque book…

I have one knitted from Peruvian aardvark leather that I found when tracking for Robert Falcon Scott in the Andes in 1691.
It even has a slot for an iPhone 7.

coins are ok – but you keep them loose in your pocket

“realmen” make a clinking sound as they stride about

M&S leather. Job done.

Coins go in an Oakley micro fibre bag

The Bridge (purse) here, but not for biking. It cost more than I’ve ever had in it. Thank you, Dearest! 🙂
