We might be headed towards a cashless society, but the men's wallet will forever remain the last bastion of solid accessories and a crucial part of every man's day-to-day life. Like a great pair of shoes or boots, a solid men's waller speaks volumes about your personality and echoes your style. Wallets are way more than just a convenient place to keep your cards and cash - a wallet is an extension of you as a person.

Whip out a solid, rugged, tastefully designed men's wallet at any gas station, bar, or grocery store, and instantly you are announcing to the world that you mean business. A pocket full of crumpled cash, torn receipts, and empty candy wrappers might be acceptable for the next guy, but not you. Only a classy leather wallet is good enough for you, and rightly so.

A nice wallet goes a long way to protecting and organizing everything about your identity as a person - there are some things in life that need to be treated with respect and handled with care, and by carrying a well-crafted wallet that oozes class and style, you are demonstrating your panache and earning a few compliments at the same time.

Standing up to Velcro

For the longest time, traditional wallets barely changed. The old-fashioned ‘purse’ did the job of carrying coins for the longest time, but with the conception of notes, cards, and personal identification, the standard bifold wallet became the default for several decades. But then something changed - and changed for the worse.

Some pretty awful contractions have started to rear their ugly heads over the last decade or so, with hard plastic wallets becoming an option or even (God forbid) velcro-based wallets. At Bull Sheath Leather, we are fighting back against the wave of nasty, cheap, ugly modern wallets by proudly presenting you with our stunning range of classy leather wallets, handmade with the best quality real full-grain leather, made right here in Texas.

What Exactly Is a Long Wallet?

In essence, a long wallet is a vertically designed wallet that allows you to carry currency flat rather than folded. It all started with motorcyclists who desired a longer wallet for easy cash access and the security of a chain connection. These chain wallets are still popular today, but the long wallet has evolved and is now enjoyed by a wider range of people, mostly without the chain.

No longer exclusive to motorcyclists, these wallets are now carried by everyone, including professionals in the business world. This is because they fit so neatly in the breast pocket of a sports coat, effectively reducing bulk while transporting.

Cowboys, or those with a "Western style," also sport long wallets that may be embossed with various badges or adorned with rivets, giving them a distinct Western appearance. The bottom line is that a long wallet can be a practical option for you, whether you're a cowboy, a biker, or anywhere in between.

Is a Long Wallet Right For You?

So, they are all good reasons for you to choose a long wallet. Before you make a decision, let's go over a few pros and cons just to help you decide if a long wallet works for you personally.

Easy Access

Long wallets serve up several perks, one of which is hassle-free cash access. Its extended design allows you to carry unfolded bills, streamlining your cash retrieval, and while that might not sound like a feature, it actually is - you just don't realize it yet! When your wallet's brimming with a variety of denominations, having them spread out and ready at your fingertips makes life so much smoother.

Embodying the Modern Gentleman

Long wallets exude a certain charm that turns heads. There's something undeniably debonair about reaching into a breast pocket and revealing a sleek, elongated wallet. As you delve into the world of long wallets, you'll find many high-end brands crafting these stylish accessories. They're more than just a wallet – they're a statement.

Nice Proportions

A long wallet's height makes it conveniently accessible from your back pocket. While some might see this as a drawback, those who attach chains to their wallets will find it really quite refreshing.

Slim and Unassuming

Despite their size, long wallets boast a slimmer profile than their shorter counterparts. With contents dispersed across a larger area, the wallet remains trim and unobtrusive.

Vigilance is Key

Keep in mind that long wallets peeping out from your back pocket can attract pickpockets. Stay cautious and aware of your surroundings to prevent any unpleasant surprises!

Not for the Minimalist

If you're seeking a minimalist wallet, a long wallet may not be the ideal choice. These aren't designed to fit snugly in a front shirt or trouser pocket. If you're game to try one of these stylish companions, you'll need to be comfortable carrying it in your back pocket or sports coat pocket.

With that said, long wallets offer a unique blend of elegance and functionality that could elevate your accessory game to new heights. They really do not take up too much room - you might be surprised, the difference is negligible - but if you are prone to wearing tight jeans with short pockets or tailor-fitted jackets with short pockets, a bifold wallet might be a better fit for you.
