Wallet is an accessory that we surely cannot do without. It follows us every day, allowing to keep in order all the most important things. But it’s not only a useful object, because it has become over time one of the favorite accessories for elegant and fashionable men. For Spring Summer 2024, the trendiest designers and fashion houses created wonderful collections of leather or fabric wallets and purses, with many models to choose from according to our needs.

The simplest lines choose brown or black leather, like the classic ones proposed by Piquadro and Michael Kors or the minimal-style wallets proposed by Saint Laurent, Giorgio Armani and Rick Owens. There are also the bi-fold leather types, which fold-up twice to give more space to credit cards, proposed in dark shades by Salvatore Ferragamo, Tom Ford, Dior and Ermenegildo Zegna. If you need a lot of space to hold everything you need, there are the continental wallets with zip closure by Givenchy and Brioni, or the organizer models with many pockets for credit cards and documents, proposed by Corneliani and Canali The wallets with flap, with slightly elongated proportions, are perfect in combination with the comfortable and fashionable men's bags.
