Technology advances making everything go digital, but for many men the wallet should remain as classic and palpable as ever, so if you are one of those who love a good portfolio, you would like to know more about them.
If banknotes existed, there had to be a place to put them, which led to the creation of this useful accessory for gentlemen in 1690; its antiquity is quite notorious and has transcended time as an indispensable element.
Despite its usefulness, some with a more carefree style, opt for other means to protect their money, or documents for daily use, however, this does not disqualify them as they are the most used accessories in the world for men.
There is a great variety in terms of styles, if we talk about designs and materials the possibilities are endless, taking this into account, according to some characteristics I will take you to explore the most outstanding and preferred models by gentlemen.
Do you know what kind of wallet you use?
Many carry a portfolio that they bought for its brand and image, not knowing what type of designs it belongs to, and possibly other models; Today I show you which ones exist.
Trifold Wallets
We find a three-sided wallet that is usually adjusted with a clasp, or with a Velcro closure.
This has a bit of volume, since it has many spaces and pockets that will allow you to protect cards and items of a few centimeters that can be folded.
Despite its small size and bulk when filled, it is still simple and can be easily carried in your pocket.
That is why this model is one of the most commercialized, with thousands of them made of different materials, where leather is one of the most sought-after presentations by adult men.
Bifold Wallets
Its body works with the same practicality of a book when opening, since it offers you two internal faces, with small pockets and compartments to store cards or documents, and a central space to place the bills.
They are one of the most basic models, it is practical, simple and classic suits it very well, it is the style you use if you only wear what is necessary in a discreet way.
Like the trifold, it has a wide range of materials from which it is made. In particular, there are models that have clasps to keep it very secure, however, it is common to see those that do not have this, because their shape allows this practicality.
Slim Wallets
Created for the minimalist man, it can hold just what is necessary, since its size is quite small, and it does not have large extra compartments.
They are generally made of leather of different levels of treatment or aluminum and some in their design have a very small number of pockets.
It is a fairly simple model, and it will be perfect if you are one of the men who are not very used to using wallets.
Larger capacity wallets
For those who want to have enough options on hand, there is this type of wallet, they are equipped so that you can store large amounts of belongings, they are larger to have more space, and you can even store your cell phone in them.
Models that use closure are recommended, since this way you avoid that when storing it somewhere some belongings fall, it is not a type of wallet to carry in the pockets, since it would attract too much attention, and it would be uncomfortable.
Zippered Wallets
They are a fairly simple design that can take the form of other models, but the use of the zipper provides extra security, since if it falls nothing comes out of it.
Its size is usually compact and without pockets to generate a more direct utility.
There are more elongated models which allow them to monopolize more elements, however, their exterior remains basic without great details.
Wallets with Clasp
As in the case of the zipper, this style also adapts to other models such as the bifold or trifold, however the touch of the clasp has earned it a prominent position for its elegance and practicality, which is superior.
Although if we talk about security, this model is not as advantageous as others, since depending on the quality of the clasp it can be opened easily or not press as it should.
Wallets with cardholder
Its particular design is aimed at being able to hold a good number of cards, so its shape is flat and elongated, with enough pockets, and it opens as if it were a book.
They are not the most suitable if you like to dress simply, as it is the type of purse that is carried in a backpack or in a coat that has large pockets.
Wallets with coin purse
To this particular model is added the function of a compartment with a good size clasp or closure to place coins, since for many people this type of cash is necessary on a daily basis, they are mostly quite large.
If you dislike that the pressure of the coins shows on your clothes, or that the metal resonates in your pockets, this wallet will work great for you.
Wallet with keyholder
A clear example of increasing the practicality of things is this wallet, which as uncomfortable as it may seem is the opposite. Keys tend to get misplaced easily and this feature including a wallet to keep them reduces this.
In addition, you get rid of conventional key rings and in one place you keep all those things that you use daily, that you need to have well located and with quick access.
This list could be much longer, since innovations in terms of security and practicality are presented in the market on a daily basis, but with this little tour we have managed to expand the panorama in terms of wallets.
Brands, colors and materials are quite a personal choice that will depend on your style.
As a last tip, remember that, although it is not an accessory that will be visible, try to make a difference the moment you show it.
