The Wallet/Purse thread

any recommendations for wallets that are not mono-toned in colour?

i.e different colours inside and outside or 2 shades of the same colour to give it a textured look. so far the only thing i've found that somewhat fits this desciption wld be this: http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?t=2944051&page=2 (pricing, anyone?) and the hermes MC3(the green line seems to imply that the owner has a streak of wildness in an otherwise classic background haha).

but the latter abit too lavish for day to day usage, esp in the hands of someone who dont make an extra effort in caring for it, which makes durabilty an added plus point.

dun really like canvas so all the monogram designs out of the question. thx

what is the price range for mont blanc wallets? If i wanna upgrade 1 lv from braun buffel, what brands to recommend? budget most likely $200 - $300

BALLY is nice leh... I went to the outlet in ION Orchard yesterday and I saw this classic brown wallet. But the stripes ain't fabric now; it's leather... coloured. Very bright, very nice!

The interior is grey in colour and I got poisoned The leather feels quite good to touch too... OMG.

Agreed.

Wanted to get Bally but trying to consider any other brands....

Especially the shoes

Montblanc 200-300 only? price drop?? i bot mine at 400+ 3 years back iirc. leather wallet with coin case. i think 300 can only get the non leather range which is not v nice imo.

I have a question... BV wallets really very lasting meh? Because I had the intention to hoot this one...

$890 in BV boutiques.... But price really abit steep for a wallet. I have a bracelet haven't wear for 1 year the woven all came out already. Bring to the shop for service the SA also like ai mai ai mai. Service already within 1 more week all the woven drop out again. SA says its not covered under warranty anymore.

i think if also depends on how well you take care of it bah? things like leather if never used for long periods, will def start to grown fungus or disintergrate eventually coze since they are leather, theres more effort needed to maintain them.

as for this wallet you pictured, i imho i wun pay 890 for it, coze i tink its a tad bit overpriced.

Cheers!
