The Wallet Thread

[evets]

my bv brown wallet has retired and now using the LV Damier infini james wallet...

still prefer the layout of the 8 card intrecciato BV wallet. Damier infini is a more softer leather and more delicate than bv leather.

Anyone got a review on the gnome and bow brand? Its local apparently and looks quite good.

my humble hoots

Very nice combo. Braun plus picard.

durable and practical.

haha, my bv like getting thrashed.. feel like switching back to lv and let bv recuperate for a while..

hows life?

been chiong-ing sales figure for the past few months...

also thinking of getting a new wallet...

thinking LV or Braun...

BV wallets require alot of TLC... can't take alot of rough handling.

Hello expert!
I just lost my Damier Cobalt canvas multiple wallet and I want to get a new one..

Whats the difference in terms of leather quality between nomade and the new Cuir Ombré? I know the Cuir Ombré logo is totally different and its new.

the Slender wallet was new to me so I went to take a look but was disappointed when i realized that the first bill compartment was not sewed up together so i decided to get back the old multiple model, whats up with this design?

me no sexpert

sorry to hear that you lost your wallet bro...

Nomade leather used by LV:
Louis Vuitton Nomade leather is similar to Natural Vachetta which is a natural vegetable tanned leather there is a further step taken with nomade leather which is the use of natural dyes... It is not like Barenia leather which is an Oil Tanned leather.

Ombre Leather by LV:
Louis Vuitton Cuir Ombré, a natural, plain leather with a soft hand, sensual touch and slightly aged patina.

basically, both leather will age overtime. The effect of the Patina depends on how you maintain and treat the leather.

I understand what you mean... the split is to allow more "bending space" for the bill notes if you intend to put alot and it will still look slim after folding the wallet.

wah really a very good inside, thanks for your reply!

I have friends in germany so I might want to get the Ombre since its the latest one. The ombre and normad multiple cost the same, which one will you take?

I touched the Damier Infini leather yesterday and it was really soft and i wonder if it will last as well as my previous Damier canvas or not, whats your opinion?

I used my Damier canvas for around 4-5 years before i lost it and its still at an acceptable condition.

The slender style is new to me and it does not have the latest leather like Ombre and normad. It honestly feel wrong when i touch it, i wanted it when I see it online because of the amount of card slot it had. The not sew part of the card compartment was quite a killer..

I have a Taiga briefcase, should i get a Taiga multiple or Epi multiple if the Ombre is not available?
