Which brand should i go for in term of quality or any other brand which can be recommended? Hope all the bro here can enlighten me..

from my personal penny wise point of view.

genuine leather lasts me very long. Not that 'genuine leather' stamp.
its got to be the real thing. It lasts for years of wear and tear. I use a country hide side pouch. After 4 years, the zipper finally gave away. but a repair only cost me around rm20.

my lumberjacks is still new. so no comment.

Quality? As in leather that last longer? Then get any decent leather wallet should be ok. None of the above will last longer then the other.

There is hard leather, soft leather, and
those that shines and those that don't

soft leather is more comfortable in a pocket, but hard leather looks classy cause it retains its nice square shape. smooth or shiny types don't catch dirt easily. if its too shiny, you might look nerdy too.

good luck in finding one that suits you.

How much is the wallet cost you?


Yea, i wish a wallet can last me at least 3 years. Any brand to be recommend?

I like This...

It's simple.

If you want branded with good leather then braun buffel or mont blanc.

others will be just paying for the brand.

not bad..

True, thx for the advice..

yup totally agree. you are just buying gucci, burberry, lv, ferragamo for the looks and branding only. durability, they suck. none of my wallets last more than a year. don't ask me how i use them. i have no idea myself.

for long lasting, i would opt for buffel or mont blanc but i think most mont blanc comes in hard leather which i don't really fancy. buffel is really value for money!

mont blanc is nice..cheapest around rm800 with cash compartment.. u can check it out at the gardens mont blanc..

Saddleback leather

Not really.. I have a mont blanc that is as soft as any of the above brand u mention and its cheap as well only about RM1.4k, cheaper then LV blah blah for sure.

As for braun buffel quality or brand image.... i really dont know why braun buffel is considered "branded/luxury" brand... i think only in Msia people buy the brand.. even in germany its not as wide spread (or people hardly know about it, I know my german colleague havent heard of it).

True, decided to go for mont blanc or braun buffel. Any bro here can provide me the price range for braun buffel wallet? If i buy it at department store, can i get the polish at those retail shop? Like i buy from isetan and get polish it at klcc braun buffel shop?


Where can i find this brand in msia?

Really

well bro, i mentioned most, but not all mont blanc i came across are hard leather. haha

actually, i am really curious. in general, how do we differentiate branded/luxury branded goods from non branded and luxury ones? is there a pricing base that one brand should conform in order to be branded luxury?

Braun Buffel is good. I've used 2 Braun Buffel wallets and it last me so long! Current one has lasted 4 years so far, no damages.

Gucci, Burberry all paying for brand only. They specialty isn't leather-goods.

if not mistaken, Braun Buffel provide lifetime polish service.

Not too sure tho.

Thx for all the info, if i was going to purchase a braun buffel wallet from isetan. Can i get the free polish ?

Both is different price range la....cannot compare!

And again let RM do the talk....

Braun buffel comparing with mont blanc? well, different league lor i would say.

but for value for RM, braun buffel lor... around rm3**, u can get one d but not mont blanc...

Hahaha....if u have budget go for mont blanc, zegna, dunhill, ferragamo since they well known in their quality leather goods...

Er... i didnt know mont blanc is well known for their quality leather goods... as far as I know Mont Blanc is known for their pens.... only recently they started leather goods in their product lineup.

Are u sure?

my fossil wallet is good too.. ady used almost 3 years and now still in good condition

Get a YSL. No regrets!

this is one im using now..

From my past experience, I'd go for LV. Still serves me well after 1 & half year. Screw gucci. lol

How about this?

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2960508

Gucci all the time....
seriously... hehe

I cannot decide between this 2 wallets...
Any recommendation ?

my LV koyak after 6 years

if you dont mind bigger then get the long wallet.

i'm also using the LV Brazza Wallet. Searching for another new long wallet just to switch between occasionally.

I wont choose both. Hahah try leather bro...ferragamo, tods or else Prada will be nice.

Is your brazza serves you nice? how long already? hahahahaha

Oh, because i wanna match with my belt, and i have look at prada one, their design too simply yet the word not sharp, HAHAHAHAHA

Ooooowhh yeah forgotten that u have LV belt...

serve me for 2 years and looks brand new.

the good thing about long wallet is:
1) you wont sit on your wallet so it'll look new
2) your notes will always be straight. Haha.
3) more card slots.

bad thing is sometimes you'll get annoyed cos its big.

but i would love to have 1 long wallet

but after you have a long wallet you definitely dont feel like going back to bi fold.

The reason only i wanna put all my cards inside it and i still use my bi fold!

HAha 6 years not bad d a.. worth the penny u spent

so expensive... i poorfag cannot affrod
i got it as a gift
now looking for a replacement, so far from this thread see braun buffel and mont blanc... any other suggestions?

For me...Prada..hahaha

I like prada with the money clip.. hehe maybe getting one for cny can alternate with my lv

I like Mont Blanc.. classy yet simple..

i using bb now , for gucci i love imprime but dont know the quality good or not~ If LV can consider about the damier series or taiga quite durable and simple !

If LV ...i vote for Taiga leather!!!

Definitely no Gucci. I don't know what others think about Burberry. I'm using mine and entering the third year, as good as new. I don't place my wallet at the back pocket and "sit" on it.

i guess, if we buy expensive wallet, it will remain new for a very very very long time, due to our TLC..
