I'm just curious guys, anyone ever used Arnold Palmer wallets?

Not sure if they're considered luxury or not. Saw a few at Paradigm Mall's outlet and quite reasonably priced, under RM100.

lots of pastel colours as opposed to the usual brown/black.

Wow, what is the price point for a Goyard. From the pic is the standard tote right? I heard started from $1k up.

The problem is when do custom, need to wait and to pick up. I also heard they dont do internet order, and defy internet marketing...

Yeap, 3 weeks minimum.

And yeap, low internet presence. You can customized the thing early from online and bring it to their stores.

Closest would be Singapore.

The St. Louis is about 850 Euroes, as mentioned by bro Maiself recently.

I have the St. Louis but in Green and not custom painted.

goyard's low presence not so low d... i see many PRC carrying it nowadays. but nice meh..... at first glance looks like 9gag's logo.


any safiano leather wallet owners here mind to share how you care and how often you clean your wallet? just had mine cleaned professionally and damn it felt so much better.

prior to that it was sticky and had all sort of stuff stuck to it. (mainly due to negligence as i often just leave it on the table when makan at mamak having food and drinks spill on it etc or just hold in in my sweaty hands during a hot day)

sadly the shop told me as safiano is genuine leather and it will soak up the oils and liquid eventho it is a treated leather (some of the dirts that got stuck onto my wallet's surface cannot be removed anymore)

Having contemplating a full shell cordovan wallet, but since it's like an endgame for wallet, want to go full swing to customized it. No logo but bearing my initial...

Maybe Goyard copy 9gag logo, they used the time machine. For the patina, it tells story mate, imagine that you passed it to your grandchild and story him that the oil is due to lepaking at "mamak" with your grandma (which was hot back then), who knows in the future "mamak" might ceased to exist...Embrace it.

epic! they have a time machine to travel into the future to find out what's the meme of the century. thumbup.gif

didnt know that wallets can be a time capsule too. hmm.gif every dirt is a piece of history! biggrin.gif


btw in terms of bespoke.. do head to tokyo. in tokyo there were some bespoke leather shops which i went to one of them to have them make me one long wallet made with black safiano and pink internal plus pink threads. it costs a rather measly 40000 yen and collected at the end of my 11 days trip. surprisingly the quality is damn good. doesnt wear as fast as the original safiano which i used daily but sadly my choice of having ngam ngam card slots (7) at the time i ordered backfired. Now it's just being used to store foreign notes. Also it is totally brandless laugh.gif

I don't really use my stuff to look prestige, the stuff should serve me and not the other way round. However moderate care and up keep is important to prolong the longevity of the product.

The bespoke experience does require some homework to be done, ie the requirement of the slots, leather choice, thread used, any hardware, the rest are faith put on the craftsman. I just need a thinly crafted bifold with full shell cordovan, either Horween or Shinki, depends on availability.

Trying to approach OGL (singapore) and Nerb Hancraft (thai). Last time checked with Nerb, the full shell was RM1300, now i saw from their Ig, price has shoot up to RM2k but different design, much more modern and slim. A full shell sling bags its like RM14k.

Getting itch to get one already? Now i am more poisoned towards dress shoes (including polishing/maintaining) and maybe bespoke shirts and pants.
