Between mont blanc and YSL and bottega.

Which brand would yall recommend?:s13:



Bottega ketupat wallet very common.

Cheap and classy = MB
Expensive and classy = YSL

Take note these 3 wallets will go on discount one.

Nice! Montblanc is always so classy and lasting. As long as you don’t put it in back pocket and sit on it

Can’t quite agree though, I’ve a westside between 2012 to 2015 and a sartorial between 2015 to 2019. Don’t put them in my pocket or sit on them. Hold in my hand or left in my work bag. Both their stitching at the bottom and top where the wallet folds became frayed and torn. For the sartorial the leather around the fold both at the top and bottom was torn as well.

My view is if you want a atas wallet, buy those brand that do not have discount or outlet sales.

Hermes is nice but doesnt have a design that i feel nice

My wallet is a YSL black grain monogram zip around with gold hardware.
I bought it because my initials are SL, so I decided to splurge on it. I hope I can use it for the next 10+ years lol.

Cost: $1230

Pros: big and can fit a lot of cards
Cons: I find the zip is hard to move around, may get stuck.

No coin compartment. Yup, never in back pocket, never sit on it.
Either left in my briefcase or held in my hand (weekday lunch time, weekends).

Became like that:

Did you pull mani notes/paper making your wallet super thick?

Hard to imagine how your wallet ended up like this.

No I keep and maintain it as thin as possible, as I don’t like bulky wallets. Excess cash I will deposit, as for cards I prolly filled close to the total 8 slots in the earlier years but removed some of them as ApplePay became more prevalent.

So while I feel Mont Blanc makes good pens, I have reservations over their wallets.
