The Wallet/Purse thread

[lfrdtoh]

which part do u exactly mean will fray? like how? how long has your friend been using? is he careful with his wallet?

 

[zyappu]

You know the sides where the intertwining leathers are right? It's very common to see tiny leather hairs fraying (according to Thomas Maier, it's supposed to be unique, haha!).

Guys wallet lor, normal use. I buy expensive stuff i also dun really like treat it like some treasure. You have to enjoy the product instead of it causing you headache, right?

 

[lfrdtoh]

i would agree with you, but like normal stuff lah, like dont put in backpocket, etc etc.

if no rush, can wait till the end of the year when BV have sales.

we always treasure new things better, another couple of months down the road...u will just treat it like nothing..kinda like in a relationship...first 6 months is always the sweetest....then,..arghh...

 

[lfrdtoh]

hahaha good analogy. but i heard BV sales damn lousy, discount a bti only?

 

[zyappu]

apparently BV is not really big in france, coz my brother cannot even find the store in champ elysees. even when he got it in the store at singapore dfs, only got it at $570 only. not really save as much as LV, where you can get 20% tax rebate.

 

[lfrdtoh]

yes apparently france only has 4 BV stores, considering that singapore already has 3, its pretty hard to find BV in france.

i have even read that in a survey conducted, more people know of hermes than its equally understated counterpart, BV, showing the hidden nature of the brand.

Yup. BV sales are usually for those seasonal colours. If looking for classics like brown, black etc usually no discounts during sales.

Wah, more than 30 pages about wallets!

Btw, is there any wallets that can protect well for the cards? I mean, usually I just put it in my rear pocket (i dun take out most of time when I sit) and most of the time my credit/atm cards get either bent or cracked! I have to replace my cards almost every year!

I dun need coins pocket type. Preferred 8 slots card types so, any recommendation? Any brand that cost > $300?

Thks.

 

[lfrdtoh]

i am not sure about this but i doubt any wallet can withstand the pressure caused by the weight of a human body. best thing is to pick up a good habit of takinng out your wallet when u sit down or put in your front pocket/bag.
