Different Types of Wallets for Men & Women

A wallet is a lot more than an accessory – it is an extension of a man’s personality. A wallet doesn’t just contain your money. It flaunts your character, your attitude, and your style. So, the next time you pull out a worn, frayed wallet, think of what it says about you!

When picking a wallet for yourself, think about who you are and what you do. Are you likely the person who casually tosses their wallet on the table at the bar? Are you someone who leaves it on the mantle at the tattoo parlour? Or are you the person who flashes it at the gym or sports zone? Think about the places and the persona you have, and you will have a pretty good idea of what kind of wallet you need to own. Still don’t? Don’t worry – we have you covered.

Picking the Perfect Wallet

Wallets for men and women may seem like the simplest of purchases, but they come in different sizes, kinds, and materials. Whether you’re picking one for yourself, a friend, or a loved one, keep all these factors in mind when choosing a wallet. It is important, of course, to understand the contents that go into it as well. Also, do think about the use it is going to get. After all, you don’t want a wallet that falls apart within a year of having bought it.

If you are planning to pick out a wallet, the basic features you need to keep in mind are:

• The material
• The quality
• The style or type
• The look/ appeal/ finish
• Functionality
• Usability

Types of Wallets for Men and Women

If the world of wallets now seems like a complex science, we help deconstruct it for you. Take a look at the types of wallets most commonly available:

• Bi-Fold Wallet: This kind of wallet is also commonly called a classic wallet since most conventional wallets are of this type. The convenience of this wallet is as important as its popularity. All you need is a simple flick of the wrist or lifting of the flap, and you have complete access to your money and cards.

  The biggest attraction of the bi-fold wallet is its style. It is the slimmest wallet available, and it sits neatly in your pocket without causing too much of a bulge or discomfort. You can now play your sport without it weighing you down, drive or ride in comfort, and even go through your whole day without even knowing it’s in the back of your jeans! Its comfort, style, and size make the bi-fold wallet among the favourite unisex wallets available.

  Check out our quirky collection of bi-fold wallets that are perfect for you.

• Trifold wallet: If you need a little more use and want to stash more into your wallet, the trifold is for you. For the sheer number of compartments that help you add in more cards, carry a few receipts, and some extra cash, the trifold wallet is extremely functional and beneficial. This is perfect for those who have their extra gym membership cards, need a place to store their guitar picks safely, or have a few tattoo designs printed and ready.

  Although most wallets today are designed to be as sleek as possible, the trifold wallet can be among the bulkier options available. Check carefully for the style and dimensions, plan what you want to carry, and remember to regularly declutter your trifold wallet to make it last longer and feel more comfortable.

• Convertible wallet: This is a really intelligent buy – it is among the most versatile wallets for men and women. If you really want value for money, this is the kind you need to buy. The question is, what really is a convertible wallet?

  This is much like a chameleon, changing its hues to its use. It can be used like a conventional wallet that goes into your bag or pocket. It can also be used as a keychain and attached to your bag zipper, the loops of your jeans, or even worn around your wrist. You can now carry it for a day filled with sports and the outdoors, use it when you don’t have a purse, or even just sling it around you as a cross-body for a day of shopping and socialising. But we haven’t told you the biggest benefit yet – manage a new look each time you carry the same wallet!

If you are looking for a streetwear wallet, look no further.

• Card holder: If you are among those who believe that less is more and prefer minimalism, a card holder is just perfect for you. Not only can you carry all your important cards along, but also keep some cash on hand. It serves its needs beautifully and ensures you feel nothing when you carry it around. A lightweight, hassle-free experience for the taking! Do remember to empty your card holder of receipts and papers periodically to keep it slim and sleek.

  This is ideal if you are set for a day outdoors or playing heavy sport. This is also great for musicians who have loads of equipment and instruments to worry about.

  Our collection of wallets and card holders is sure to help you look trendy and feel prepared.

Are sling bags and fanny packs the new wallets and purses?

Trends and fashions change, and why should wallets and purses be left behind? Today, most people are seen carrying sling bags and sporting fanny packs with pride. Not only do they make great fashion statements, but also have extreme utility. If you are undecided and want to try experimenting with them on your next hike, at the next music gig, or even when you hit the gym, take a look at some benefits that might work in your favour:

• They are lightweight. You probably won’t even feel like you are carrying something. It also makes it easier when you need to stuff more into your bag or pack since its own weight counts for virtually nothing.
• They are useful. If you have just a few belongings and don’t want a bag or purse, they are perfect.
• They are convenient. No partitions and places where things can fall or get lost. They keep everything safe and organised.

The great thing about these bags is that you can change their look each time you carry them. They adjust to your size and wearability perfectly, and they look simply stunning! If you need proof, check out our fanny packs and sling bags that are ultimate in form and functionality.
