Benefits
Durability and Longevity
For thousands of years, we’ve known and harnessed the durability of leather. Supple, pliable, yet strong, it is a material that allows us to make a gorgeous wallet that will look great and serve you well for years… even decades, if properly cared for.
Style and Elegance
The unmatched style and elegance of premium leather wallets will give you added confidence.
With each time you take it out, handle it, use it, and even clean it, you will appreciate the luxurious feel, stunning design, and continued pristine condition of it.
Practicality and Functionality
Getting a stunning design means giving up some functionality or comfort for many things, but this is not so for a leather wallet. In fact, the magic of leather is that the most durable and reliable types are also the most beautiful and luxurious.
An Investment in Quality
The initial cost of a premium womens wallet might be higher. Still, when considered over the many years it will serve you – as opposed to cheaper versions that fade, wear, fail, and need to be replaced several times over while the premium one still looks great and functions as new… that cost reveals the quality and value behind it.
How to Choose
The best way to choose is to begin with a clear idea of what you need in a ladies wallet. How many card slots do you want? Do you carry cash? A passport? Where do you want to carry it?
From there, you can determine the style you like best within your budget range.
Let’s take a closer look at the considerations you should make.
Leather Quality: The Essential Foundation
Before considering any wallets or purses, it is important to understand leather grades and quality.
Full-grain leather is the most durable and naturally beautiful, so it is normally considered the best.
In second place is top-grain leather, which is less durable but still popular, as it can have a smoother surface, takes bright-colored finishes better, and is usually less expensive.
Size and Capacity: Matching Your Lifestyle
Lay out the cards you currently carry and remove any that you don’t need with you. Add in any that you do need but haven’t been carrying.
The number of cards remaining is the number of card slots you need in your new wallet. If you carry cash, you’ll also need a cash pocket or clip to keep that secure and accessible.
Functionality Meets Fashion: Design and Features
The function is really important because a beautiful wallet that is a pain to use simply won’t get used as much. It might even get annoying, which will kill the joy you could otherwise have from a wallet that is both beautiful and functions properly.
Make sure the features, size, and weight are what you want… then choose from the available designs. You’ll be happy you did it that way. Choose a zip that goes around the wallet if you prefer that large style, and look for coin holders if you often deal in cash.
Color and Texture: Personal Expression
Lighter colors look elegant and chic but can get grimy and stained more easily. Bright colors express bold fashion preferences but might clash with some outfits.
Classic colors like black, brown, dark red, and other natural tones look better with less care and are timeless about fashion trends, showing well with casual and formal outfits of many types and colors.
Price Point: Investment in Quality
Know your budget and stick to it – but remember that the more quality you pay for, the happier you will likely be with your purchase. Renowned brands, for example, do charge a premium for the name, but that comes with a lot of care for quality, excellent customer service and support, and reliable warranties.
They didn’t build those reputations by selling cheap goods with no backup; they offered high-end goods with high-end treatment backing them up.

Von Baer was founded because I wanted a unique and high-quality laptop bag for myself, without paying for an unreasonably overpriced designer brand. I've spent over 500 hours testing 1,000s of leather products over to help you get a better product.
I'm proud of the luxurious leather goods we've created since 2014, and I'm sure you'll love them too. Read more about our story here.
We strive for the highest editorial standards, and to only publish accurate information on our website.
How Is Von Baer Leather Different?
Not all leather is the same.
Since 2015, we at Von Baer have dedicated ourselves to high-quality real leather.
Here's a 30-second summary of how to choose a better leather product:
- Leather comes in different grades: full-grain, top-grain, and split/bonded - which represent how much of the original product is used (less product used = cheaper).
- Full-grain is the best grade of leather you can buy: exceptionally durable, developing an elegant patina, and having that beautiful real leather smell.
- Cheaper grades are less durable, age poorly, and don't have that authentic scent.
- Leather is processed through "tanning", which makes it durable and water-resistant.
- The two main methods for this are "vegetable-tanning" and "chrome-tanning".
- Chrome tanning uses harsh chemicals that are bad for the environment and produce a worse quality leather.
- Vegetable tanning is the best method, being more eco-friendly, and producing leather with a better patina and scent.
That's why here at Von Baer, we only use full-grain vegetable-tanned Italian leather, sourced from the finest tanneries across Tuscany, Italy.
It ages beautifully over time, developing a unique patina, making it more durable and luxurious than lower-quality leather.
It's also why we developed the leather standards trademark Cuoio Superiore (meaning "superior leather" in Italian).
