some old defunct forum that people who're into streetwear etc hang out at.
used to be a music dj forum and slowly changed into a streetwear forum. pioneer in Singapore.
then it died.

Ok, I'm not into wallets, nor do I know much about wallet brands, and I use a plain wallet, but I actually don't think the first two would warrant a second glance from any co-worker.

As for red and LV, well, it's kinda like a Rolex, which is also "loud" in its own sense, depending on where you work.

Eh, cyrenic, wallet inspection timing has been changed to 7am tomorrow morning. Fall in outside the pantry. Make sure you kiwi your wallet and starch your white collar

ya, mongram stuff if small, its really un-noticeable.
those who don't know probably think its from some cheap wallet shop. LOL.

the red LV is pretty loud and if you're in formal setting, you probably won't use that. weekends yes.

i bought that because its a first collab done by 2 giants - both in streetwear and high end designer brand

Even if you want to use that wallet in an office setting it’s your prerogative la. It’s not like you’re using a plastic bag.. Now that would definitely raise eyebrows.

I think people these days are a lot more open minded. Frankly, there’s nothing wrong with luxury goods and/or colors. I cannot think of any normal balanced office environment where people would gossip or exclaim about this sort of thing. In some parts of the private sector (and not just banks) money is used for far more excessive things like Michelin star welcome lunches..

i think in an office settings, if you're a lower end employee say a jr exec and you wear a rollie, ppl might say crap behind your back.
that's old school la.

nowadays, all wanna chiong luxury stuff, become a comparison game or if you're lucky, it becomes a hobby you share with your peers at work.

anyway its just a wallet, prada/lv/bottega all these are like lup sup now. lol

u go CBD, everyone is using such wallets. nothing much. :s22:

Ever since I had mine as a daily beater, I notice how people look at me or treat me. Quite an interesting social experiment.
