It’s time for another round of designer billfolds, and you might spot some classic silhouettes refreshed with an updated print (and colour) amongst these 6, making them exciting options to consider if you’re on the hunt for a brand new wallet.
Billfolds are great because they fit easily into most pockets (until you jam it with a month’s worth of receipts, that is), and it’s one that most men often find themselves getting as a little treat to celebrate specific milestones in their lives.
What do these 6 have in common? Well, they’re all compact, slender, and made in lightweight coated canvas resistant to daily wear. They each come in the respective house’s monogram, so here’s a quick overview of each piece ranging from Celine to Versace.
01 – Celine Triomphe Canvas Wallet, SGD590
The Bi-Fold Wallet in Triomphe Canvas is a clear standout at Celine, thanks to its brown/tan canvas with gold-tone hardware. 8 credit card slots and 2 compartments for cash, along with additional inner side pockets, are more than enough for daily use. CELINE
02 – Dior CD Diamond Compact Wallet, SGD760
This compact wallet from Dior gets an uplift with the Dior Gray CD Diamond canvas. This graphic motif designed by Marc Bohan in 1974 features the ‘CD’ initials coming together to form a diamond shape, now revisited on a contemporary billfold encasing numerous pockets for cards, cash and coins. DIOR
03 – Goyard Saint-Thomas Wallet, SGD1400
Not to be confused with the Victoire, this is another Goyard favourite known as the Saint-Thomas, which features a central money clip meant to hold approximately 20 notes. The slim 11 cm by 9 cm piece also has 4 card slots to keep everything else within, and it comes in Goyard’s extensive range of colours for your choosing. GOYARD
04 – Gucci GG Supreme Wallet, SGD610
This wallet from Gucci is another timeless piece thanks to the iconic GG Supreme canvas. This time, the Italian fashion house has given it a full black treatment for a cool, dark look, before it is stamped with an oval leather tag right in the middle. Aside from 2 bill compartments, the wallet also has 8 dedicated slots for cards. GUCCI
05 – Louis Vuitton Monogram Eclipse Reverse Slender Wallet, SGD735
For a fun, refreshing twist, Louis Vuitton’s Slender Wallet is also updated in Monogram Eclipse Reverse, where the grey and black colours are inverted. The standard 8 card slots and bill compartment are as classic as it gets, and you frankly can’t go wrong with the house’s signature Monogram motif. LOUIS VUITTON
06 – Versace La Greca Signature Wallet, SGD560
Fancy something new and different? That’s where the La Greca Signature Wallet from Versace comes in. The eye-catching La Greca motif is printed on the coated canvas exterior, with hints of Versace’s logo popping up all over the Grecian-inspired design. This one comes with a snap-button coin pouch, along with 2 internal note compartments and 3 card slots for easy organisation. VERSACE
