i need to change mine too but looking for good quality RM500 wallet. brands don't matter to me cuz i was spoiled for choices when i shopped in a flea market in the states and bought nice clean cut classic calf leather wallets for 10USD. Should have bought more and bring them back. so sad.

so yea, any recommendation?

All this branded wallets, don't really last that long unless you take care of it.

You would rather buy multiple 10 dollars wallet which can last almost as long as all this 600 usd wallets laugh.gif

I could only think of Braun Buffel, if you want below 500. Mine lasted 6 years already with mild wear and tear.

yeah. That's the impression i get from looking at this thread is that high end wallets require high end maintenance. A girlfriend is enough to maintain. Don't want anymore stress sleep.gif"

checked out braun buffel. Quite like it but haven't bought yet cuz still looking around for alternative brand or even better, brandless but of course must be good quality la hahah

There's only an issue I have with Bifolds.

The cards will be chewed up and destroyed pretty quickly if you are not careful.

Side note : A Prada Saffiano leather cost around 800++ overseas if you are lucky tongue.gif
I hate Bifold with coin pouch laugh.gif

And depending on how you abuse it.

Some people sit on their wallets. Some people load the slots up to max.

I don't do either.

Perhaps that's why my ancient LV survived up to today while others complaint about it's premature death  biggrin.gif

And yeah, I have a couple of other wallets which I carry around for weekends and other occasion.

i don't sit on them anymore after my chiropractor told me it is bad for the nerve and spine to sit on them but i do load my cards on all slots (1 card/ slot la)
