A Week of Wallets - 2


English Hand-Stitched Brown Vegetable-Dyed Calfskin "Dress Wallet" (LEO Design)

 

A "dress wallet"—like the one shown here—is a classic (perhaps a relic) of earlier, tailored times.  Picture an elegant gentleman—perhaps Cary Grant, Laurence Olivier, or Paul Henreid—removing such a wallet from the interior breast pocket of his (double-breasted) suit jacket.  It has 14 slots for numerous cards and four long pockets for bills (perhaps in different, international currencies).  And this dress wallet will also hold a (horizontally-bound) checkbook.

A wallet like this is not for men alone.  Some woman might like its handsome and understated design—and they would likely keep it in a handbag (rather than in a jacket pocket).  Click on the photo above to learn more about this handsome wallet.

More leather wallets tomorrow and in the days to come.
