Our wallets for men and women are not just everyday objects, but travel companions. They are made according to designs from the 18th and 19th centuries, a time when traveling was still an adventure. This essence is contained in every piece.

We only use the best, like our signature buffalo leather and robust cotton. These outer fabrics are not only known for their durability, but also for their natural beauty. We focus on sustainability and social responsibility at every step.

Which colors are best for wallets?
The color choice for your wallet depends on your individual preferences, style desires and practical considerations.
Black:
Black is a timeless and classic color that conveys style and seriousness. A black wallet can be combined in many different ways.
Brown:
Brown tones exude warmth and naturalness that suit a casual or business style. Brown shades range from rustic to elegant.
Khaki-Beige:
Light brown tones give a relaxed and casual look. They are good for everyday use and harmonize with different outfits.
Olive green:
This military-inspired shade is an excellent alternative to navy blue, black and brown. An invigorating color accent without being over-emphasized. Our Travis model looks great in olive green.
What should not be missing in a wallet?
Your wallet usually contains some essential valuables that you need on a daily basis. Here are some of the most important items:
- Cash, notes & coins: your freedom currency for worldwide adventures, safely stored.
- Your credit and debit cards: They open doors – from shops to unexpected trips.
- Driving license & identity card: your personal papers for the road of life.
- Medical documents & health insurance card: In case the adventure needs a short break.
- Emergency numbers: Your people when the digital age lets you down.
- Tickets for bus & train: Your ticket to the city of your dreams, every day.

- Small change for all occasions: The little things that can make a big difference.
- Thoughts, lists & notes: your inner compass, immortalized on paper.

Don't overload your wallet. Make it a mirror of your needs and keep it clear and simple. Also think about RFID protection to protect yourself from the traps of the modern world.
Where do women carry their wallets?
In your handbag: Whether in a large shopping bag or an elegant clutch, this is the most common method of storing your wallet.
In the backpack: Ideal for outdoor activities or sporting occasions, the backpack offers a convenient way to safely store your wallet and other items.
In your pocket : For a slim and convenient design that easily fits in your pocket, this is a great option for on the go.
The choice often depends on the situation, style and personal preferences. Each of these options has its own advantages, tailored to different lifestyles and needs.
Where do men carry their wallets?
Traditionally, men carry their wallets in their right trouser pocket or alternatively in the inside pocket of their jacket or blazer. However, with the advent of smartphones, wallets have faced competition for space in their trousers. Small men's cross-bags or the increasingly popular bum bags or breast pouches provide a solution.
What makes a good men’s wallet?
A wallet is a loyal companion for many stages of life. Hardly any other object is used more often. Hardly any accessory holds more important documents than a wallet. When making a purchase decision, we recommend that you let your heart speak alongside function and quality. A good wallet should also have emotional value, a good soul. Because "you can only see well with your heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye."
What types of wallets are there for men?
