How often do you buy a new wallet?

As my post is meant to mean. Real men don't have wallets for sissy wardrobe reasons and to change em like women's purses!!! Come on guys grow a pair!

I'll agree with that, but also say that real men do their research to find a product that fits their needs. There's nothing unmanly about talking about why you like your wallet, unless it's because it matches your purse.

I have a Mitchell's Money Clip wallet. It's basically a simple card holder wallet with a metal clip to hold your bills. It's really thin and convenient, plus you can easily carry about 10 cards in the 4 slots. I have to have several on me for work and it works well. Mine is the American cowhide model. They have some finer leathers, but the price goes along with them. I think it's one that will last a few decades.

As for the original question, I toss a wallet when it wears off. That normally takes 3 years or so.

I used to have leather wallets but when I got so much stuff I had to put in them I switched over to a Big Skinny wallet. They are made out of a thin fabric and when loaded
up are not so thick as a leather wallet. I like it.

I got a Big Skinny leather wallet, it rocks. Probably had it for 3 years or so, and still looks and feels great. Probably under a third of the thickness of my old wallet with all the same stuff.

Just bought a new wallet that is supposed to block folks from scanning my credit cards. Last wallet bought from a custom leather dude in Brunson MO in 1977.

I keep them until they wear out. I've never bought a wallet. I get them as gifts and usually at the right time. My Dad however bought me one last year just like his. It's a bi-fold Infinity made from stingray skin, it's tough and very handsome, much like me.

I still have my draft card in mine, right where I put it the day I got it in 1971. Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever actually bought a wallet.

LOL, I found my draft card the other day when getting out Christmas decorations.

is this a troll thread, I mean come on.

Well, if it is, it's better than a bitching thread. Wouldn't you agree?
