Even if your wallet is made from leather, at some point you will have to consider replacing it for a newer model. Wallets are in fact one of those storage devices people consider indispensable and thus, pay a great deal of attention before deciding to purchase a newer model.

Everything, from the wallet's design and style to its materials and size, has a particular significance to the prospective wallet buyer. In fact, selecting a durable, functional and of course, stylish new wallet, is not something only women pay attention to. Especially if someone considers the vast variety of brands and prices existing today in the market, the wallet of one's choice can probably be unique in that it is not all people who agree on what the "perfect" wallet should look like. Some, taking advantage of the fact that carrying cash is not anymore a necessity, select wallets that have only debit or credit card compartments, while others who want to experience the more traditional paper currency paying method, select wallet designs that have the required money spaces. But the truth is that people who are not familiar with the variety of wallet designs available can get extremely confused when they are in a hurry to purchase a wallet, ending up with one that might not fully cover their present needs. Thus, it is useful to know the basic wallet types before storming out to select your next wallet companion.

First, there are the bi-fold wallets, meaning that they have only one fold. These type of wallets are easy to open and extremely flexible to organize. Some even have zippered pockets to keep coins or small valuables. Sleeker versions of the bi-fold design, the billfolds, generally hold currency and credit cards and also have some special security compartments and a flip-out ID holder. People looking for more space to accommodate their checkbooks apart from their cash and cards, should select a checkbook wallet type. Front pocket wallets are slimmer versions of the bi-fold wallets, specifically designed to fit the front pockets of trousers. These wallets make it particularly difficult for interested thieves to grab hold of them without the owner's immediate attention. ID wallets are a great solution for people that have to display frequently their identity cards, since they contain a clear vinyl compartment making any identification document easily visible. Money clip wallets keep the currency exposed and are ideal for those who need to have their cash ready in their hands without wasting any time looking inside their wallet's compartments. Finally, tri-fold wallets are great storage devices for people that need space for money, business cards, credit cards, photographs, checkbooks, etc.

Concluding, regardless of the wallet design one selects, most people advise others to buy leather wallets, mainly due to their extreme durability. In addition, because leather contours over time, it easily takes the shape of the space where it one puts it, making the wallet a very comfortable device to carry around daily.
