Looking for some ideas on a nice wallet
Hey guys, I'm looking to purchase a nice wallet for local use. I'm wondering if there's a favorite company everyone uses. I've been using a coach wallet but am looking to upgrade to something nicer. Ohh yea, post pics of your favorite wallet/card carrier with your favorite watch please!!

I have a black Epi VL wallet and have had it for about seven or eight years and it still looks great. Worth the extra money since you don't have to change out wallets every couple of years. Monte Blanc also makes some nice wallets too.

I've used 'nice' wallets for a while. They never last more than a year for me.
I got a Tumi recently. My favorite things date. Simple, understated and bombproof. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I've been really happy with my Burberry wallet. Has held up well.

I've had pretty good luck with Coach. I've looked at the Tumi's and they're pretty nice as well.

Tumi wallets are great. Durable. Tough. I went through a new wallet every two years until I got a Tumi. Had it for seven years and it looks nearly new.

Looking for some ideas on a nice wallet
I've had a personalized smathers and Branson card holder for at least three years, before that a LV (which was too bulky). The S&B does everything I need it to with a nice personalized touch

I am about to switch from a Burberry to a card holder. Love the look of mine but too bulky. If you prefer front pocket, then a card holder may be the way to go.

About 6 months ago I bought a Mont Blanc 6 CC billfold.
I don't remeber the collection that this one came from, but it's a relatively new one. Very easy to hang on to vs the MB Meisterstuck models which, I find, tend to be more "slippery". |

I change between the LV epi and a goyard. The goyard feels to be better quality in terms of leather, stitching and the classic painted pattern but it doesn't seem as durable as the LV epi.

Z Clip carbon fiber clip and leather card holder. Absolutely fantastic.
Carried this for 5 years before that and it is still in perfect shape. Titanium clip in there if I remember right. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Where can I buy a Goyard wallet outside of NYC on the East Coast? Seems unreasonable to drive past my Louis Vuitton boutique all the way to NY for a wallet.
edit: my wife is going to Paris on Tuesday, maybe I should have asked her first. What kinda prices would she see over there? |

I generally find Coach quality just fine for my needs. I have had the money clip /card wallet for years and have recently brought it back to fill time use especially for business suit and tuxedo wear.
