The Best Wallets for Men, According to Vogue:
Masculine Minimalism
A compact wallet in a black, matte leather will serve him well no matter his style, age, or occupation. From iconic billfold wallets from the likes of Burberry, Boss, Vince, and Coach, the below options range in price and scale but all exude sleek sophistication. The man in your life will enjoy this classic accessory for everyday carry all year long.
Card cases
Perfect for housing just the essentials—credit cards and maybe a business card or two—a luxury card holder in high-quality leather is the ultimate staple for the modern man. In an ever more cashless society, these slim leather wallets provide all the utility he needs without the extra bulk of a billfold wallet. Minimalist wallets can easily be slipped into the front pocket of a pair of running shorts or suit trousers. In muted hues of black, brown, and navy, these six leather wallet options exemplify great design without being overly flashy.

Under-$100
Very few of us can spend a fortune on a leather cardholder but that doesn’t mean you can’t show the man in your life how much he means to you with a beautiful under-$100 gift. Here are some of the most attractive and well-made leather goods in the category from brands like J.Crew and Zara. Whether rustic beige or cosmopolitan gray, these bestsellers are sure to put a smile on his face.
Flying Colors
The era of men’s wallets, money clips, and bifolds being limited to blacks and browns is, thankfully, long over. If you are shopping for a man who is not afraid of color, these quality wallet options will show off his bold sense of style without being too trendy. Greens, blues, and reds remain masculine while rejecting the conventions of more conservative styles.
Splashing Out
For reaching for the highest echelons of luxury, these six wallets are for you. Made from the finest leathers, suedes, and skins, they are sure to serve him for years to come. When purchasing something meant to last a lifetime, we recommend sticking with the classics. For a man, the most enduring style option is a black billfold (as demonstrated above!). Although all dark in tone and similar in shape, the subtle differences demonstrate the exceptional craftsmanship and character of Loro Piana, Bottega, and more.
Flights of Fancy
For lovers of art and followers of fashion, these six options are the way to go. Equal parts striking and daring, the colorful creations by brands like Off White and Issey Miyake blur the line between design and utility. A particular favorite of mine is the Balenciaga wallet designed to look like a passport holder and plane ticket, perfectly capturing the creative innovation of Demna Gvasalia.
