For many people your average money wallet is more than enough for them. Some however may have so much “plastic” they don’t know what to do with it. This is where a credit card wallet comes in to its own. Keep everything organised, professional and tidy. Not one for wallets? This may still be of use to you! Read on.


Why bother with a credit card wallet when you have a normal cash wallet with card slots? Well, in my past experience most money wallets come with so few slots for cards that there just isn’t enough space in there for everything, cards are doubled up, you cant see what’s what and they end up tearing holes in your good wallet! With a credit card holder you can choose the cash wallet you want to buy and not have to worry about how much space there is inside for your ever expanding range of credit cards, store cards and loyalty point cards. Spotted that designer wallet you’ve wanted for years? Go for it, as long as it holds cash you’re good to go. Even better if it comes with a matching debit card wallet, which most quality items do!

Most of us wouldn’t carry our credit cards everywhere we go if we could avoid it, but checking the contents of your wallet every time you plan on leaving the house isn’t ideal. With a quality leather credit card wallet you keep them all in one place for the time you do need them and if you plan on carrying your cards with you at all times put the rest of your cards, driving license, loyalty cards etc in the sleek low profile credit card holder to stop your cash wallet getting bulked up.

Are you the type of person who never uses a wallet and always keeps their money loose in their pockets? Where are you going to keep your cards, your driving license? If they’re bouncing around your pockets, every time you reach in there to grab that mashed up wad of money you risk dropping your cards in the street or in a shop, perfect for someone looking for free money. Your new wallet keeps all your cards together safely. No need to check every pocket in your clothing to try and find one of the dozen cards that are scattered about your person.

If you’re a business man and you don’t carry any sort of wallet then what kind of impression does it give when you meet a potential business partner, go to a business lunch and go to pay your bill then end up with the contents of your pockets all over the floor. A high quality card holder gives a professional look. Not only can you keep your credit and debit cards in there you can have your business cards right there with you, kept nice and flat, no dog eared business card here!

If you think you don’t need somewhere to keep all the plastic cards we’re given in this day and age safe, then think again! These wallets are practical, professional, keep your cards tidy but most of all, are safe!

Most men just love leather goods. Most couldn’t articulate why. Maybe it’s just a guy thing, but this is a gift he’s guaranteed to love and will remind him daily of who gave it to him.

Mens wallets can be as varied as, well, men can be. When you begin checking out what’s available you’ll find a number of types, bi-fold, tri-fold, breast pocket, large travel and document holders or small sleek and very chic models.

Within these types there’s the availability of coin pockets, windowed ID pockets, pockets sized for credit cards, business cards, photos and pockets to separate different currency notes for the international traveler. These are just some of the features available with different types for different functions.

Material is a major consideration when choosing such a personal gift. High quality full grain leather is offered in most types in several different leathers. Calf skin is the most widely available, but bull hide, water buffalo, snake skin, crocodile, deer and elk leathers can make your gift truly unique.

In addition to the kind of leather you pick for your gift, there’s the color, the texture or finish of that leather and the workmanship, detailing to take a look at.

When you’re choosing a gift of fine leather goods, here are a few ideas which may refine and ease your selection.

For many men, a quality wallet is a very personal thing. They have it with them all day, every day. It holds pictures of girlfriends, wives and family. When they take it out, they’re doing business, spending money. Other people view it and hence it’s a personal reflection on them.

Some men will prefer the more classic or understated models. For others a dash of style may truly impress, perhaps a subtle snakeskin interior, or silk lined pockets, or a bold crocodile exterior.

Consider what type of mens clothing the wallet will be worn with. Cargo pants, for instance, could probably accommodate a slightly larger wallet.

Also keep in mind, you don’t necessarily have to match or replace what he’s carrying now. An ultra slim suit coat breast pocket credit card wallet could be a great gift for the businessman, or a small thin, front pocket type for a couple of credit cards, a few bills and business cards, can say organized and efficient.

A significant number of leather goods dealers will be happy to monogram your gift. Many will gift wrap and provide a card awaiting your presentation, or they’ll ship it directly for you.

Have fun with your selection, and know he’ll truly appreciate receiving the gift of a leather wallet.
