What I do like most in wallets is that it must have several compartments. I want a place where I can put photos of my love ones, insert my credit cards, bills and coins compartment, compile my charge slips, and extra space for other papers.
This wallet was given to me by my brother-in-law in one of my birthdays. It is a Marithe Francois Girbaud blue tri-fold wallet that really suits my preferences. It has several compartments for things I usually bring in when I go out and actually I still have some free space. I do prefer bringing wallet alone even when going to mall instead of shoulder bag so it must be really kind of spacious for my things. The blue color is fine and it is made from durable nylon fabric inside and outside. The coins are kept safe in a magnetic lock expandable division and the paper money can be divided among the several spare compartments. I can separate them according to value for security reason and for ease of pulling out. I have been using it for years now and the appearance still looks great and what's best is that I can have it clean thoroughly with water and detergent powder.
I also bought Marithe Francois Girbaud wallet, on sale, last christmas as a present for my friend and I happy that he still using it until now. My mother also received a bag and it lasted for years. It is a good brand for bags and wallet.
Tri fold wallets are very useful and convenient.
