Hey people, when you buy wallet, you just buy the brand, the design or the material made? Some wallet are made of cloth, but 300 plus, do you think it's worth?

brand and design (very impt)

just got this!

nice. damage?

should follow in this order. design>material>brand. even if brand popular, may have lousy designs, or materials that arent worth the hefty price tag.

True....brand sometimes isn't everything.

I use brand as a guideline...but mainly design most impt

[viberzdae]

budget $650... any wallet to recommend? LV like darkangle mention.. cc slot abit troublesome...

 

[es0teric]

viberzdae, Bottega Touch it before you say NO

Firstly...it depends on your needs. you need coin pouch? or prefer more CCs?

 

[lfrdtoh]

before i continue, this is just my opinion, dont want to get flamed by anyone.

luxury leather market, leaders are hermes and bottega veneta. so getting BV, especially their bags, only way up is hermes. both understated kings.

and since for the same price asa LV multiple, why not get an intrecciato from BV. more exclusive too, and good leather.

coin pouch, dont reccomend yea, spoils the wallet, get a seperate coin pouch if u dont find it troublesome

Why the CC slots gpt problem for ya?

 

[Darkangle]

Why the CC slots gpt problem for ya?

Coz..I dun use much CCs...and I want coin pouch..but LV wallets as u know..coin pouch 1 costs ard 600 onwards..so i struck LV out of my list liaos.

Only 1 which was kinda near perfect on my list of wallets was the LV Zippy Coin Purse...which I bought...4 CCs and coin compartment...nicely priced at $455. After I buy....only problem was...it was abit gu niang...so...kept it in the box eversince

Agree on that. (except the last sentence haha)

Well..I was thinking of a Hermes wallet...after I was poisoned by my female fren's ladies wallet...the ultra nice leather...haha. Was thinking of getting the men's version of it..but when I heard it was like THE WALLET of the gay community...I sian diao

 

[lfrdtoh]

haha which wallet dark?

and how come disagree with me! . i dont like coin pouch cause if u stuff coins, the leather deforms, along with the shape of the wallet. to each his own lah.
