The Wallet Brigade

Selecting a wallet is a personal thing, so it makes gifting one somewhat challenging. Some years ago, a friend kept lamenting that he found it difficult to find a “slim” wallet so I decided I would find him one for Christmas. In the end, I found him the perfect “slim” wallet at Mont Blanc and gifted it to him. He loved it.

A few weeks ago while contemplating writing an article on men’s wallets, I asked my friend what kind of wallet he had. I was surprised by the exasperation in his tone when he responded to me. He said that he was dissatisfied with the one he had. He wanted a wallet with an ID insert but was unable to find one. He then showed me the wearing effect the frequent removing and replacing had on his Drivers License.

This complaint resonated with me, so I decided that I would find a Brand that produces the kind of wallet my friend was seeking. I can report that I found the Brand.
