And before you say, “hey, there’s only 5 cards slots...” - there is an extra secure flap where 1, 2, 3 more cards can hide.




Also comes in a tall bill format for international travelers.

Tumi front pocket money clip wallet. It's exactly the same design as the Coach wallet I carried for 10+ years before it.
It has 2 single pockets in front for cards at the ready and one main pocket for cards used less often (medical, etc.
There is a money clip on the back.

I sold my Faure le Page and LV wallets on the Realreal. Actually the wife sold them for me. They held their value very well. But no worries, I have a custom alligator billfold and an official Patek one as well, neither of which do I use.
I agree with this, I have some Goyard wallets and card holders, they are very robust. I bought them after reading John's thread on wallets, I have never regretted the decision.

I've been using the Z Clip Luxe for over a year now. I really love it, but it is in a whole other world since it's not leather etc.

How much do these go for? It's a really classy looking wallet.

How does it compare to your Faure Le Page?
LOVE Goyard wallets (and bags for the wife) especially when it comes to durability. I'm on my 3rd in 10 years and that's only because my dog at the first one and my housekeeper recently washed my card holder and the paint stuck to the metal in the dryer.

They did start using a different paint a few years back that seems to hold up better but I kind of like the patina of the older ones. The leather and edges have always been super durable.

This is one good looking wallet. Love blue! I might consider one of the really slim Goyard for front pocket wear and a splash of color!

Can’t find any online sales at all. Not even a way to view what different style wallets they offer. Kind of annoying.

Another vote for Ashland Leather. Their cordovan wallets are an amazing piece of work.

Like you, I wanted something nice but nothing with some obnoxious logo. It is all black on the outside with a small Louis Vuitton logo (gray on black) which blends in nicely.

My favorite part is the blue stitching on the outside and it gives it that pop of color when you open it up. If you don't care for the blue they have it with just the normal black on the inside as well.

Good luck in your search

Bought the same one in Maui a few months ago and love it. It’s great because it’s slim and has enough slots for cards.

You cannot buy Goyard online. You could look online and find a style you like, but then you have to call a boutique and order from them over the phone. They are very exclusive and hard to get.

I've been using LV card holder for more than 10 years.

Recently, I've switched to Popov Leather

Taken when I first got it -


Taken after 8 months of continuous use - it patinaed

I’m a huge fan of the Tannergoods Journeyman wallets (And most Tannergoods products). Handmade in Portland, bombproof and understated. Gets better the more it gets beaten.

I have had an LV for three years now. Looks great and really holds up well. I know they are expensive but it has been worth it. Before that was a Bellroy which was an excellent wallet and the leather really kind of breaks in and gets super soft.

For Christmas I have decided to have VVEGO build me a wallet. It will be made from a Rawlings Trap-EZE baseball glove like the one I used in high school. Handmade from a real ballglove for ~$375-$400.

That's cooler than any Louis Vuitton I've ever seen.

Yes really awesome.

Handmade things like that with some history and longevity beat any off the shelf brand hands down.

Big fan of Smythson of Bond Street. Great quality and under the radar compared to LV/Gucci.
