I only own a Vernis bag, Rosewood in Perle from ages ago, it’s different from Empreinte as it has a coating, thus embossing doesn’t fade.
Most durable material for wallets?

I have only one Damier Azur item and I’m not sure I’ll get another. I’m very rough and tumble w my things and I just found I got to dirty looking and I could never get it to look “clean”.
Wow such a lovely collection. I’m also thinking about the mon monogram. Sadly the selection is limited but the pocket organizer might work. I do have a coin purse so I could use that for coins. Sadly the slender doesn’t come in mon monogram as outside of the victorine that’s my favorite.
The Pocket Organizer is an awesome wallet, but it's very different from the others you're considering.
Yes it is. I have the insolite coin purse and sadly there is nothing really like it. The closest is the victorine. The pocket organizer is basically the first part of the insolite coin without the button. Really I want my Insolite but that’s not an option so that’s why all the ones I’m looking at seem so unrelated. It’s basically just having to choose which parts of the insolite I like most. I don’t really use the coin part if the insolite. The slender and multiple basically is are around the same size and hold the same number of card but add a bill slot.
Thank you.
I like Slender in Damier Graphite or Monogram Eclipse. Hope you can find your perfect wallet soon. Like you, I used to ‘kill’ a wallet before changing but heck, there are so many beautiful pieces from Louis Vuitton and life is too short to stick to one.
George Costanza was a character on Seinfeld, and one of the episodes involved his GIGANTIC wallet.
Before I got any Louis Vuitton wallets, I always thought I would get the Multiple. When I finally started really looking at them, I realized that the Multiple is just...no. Way, way, way too big and bulky. Even without anything in it, it's huge. I can't imagine using it and liking it once it started to fill up.
That was so funny! I remember that episode well! Still love Seinfeld!
I’m also thinking of doing possibly the pocket organizer in mon monogram but I wonder if the paint will chip.
I tried rotating in the past but I would forget to move this or that LOL so I just stick one.
I was starting to think I was going crazy as I thought they were much the same size. So I looked it up:
(Length x Height x Width)
Multiple
4.53 x 3.54 x 0.59 inches
Slender
4.33 x 3.35 x 0.79 inches
Victorine
4.72 x 3.74 x 0.59 inches
Pocket organizer
2.8 x 4.3 x 0.4 inches
These are the numbers from the USA LV website
So in the end we were both wrong the victorine is the biggest of the lot. My biggest issue w the multiple is the lack of credit card slots. 3 for a wallet that size seems too few.
I concur: canvas for durability, and epi is a gorgeous durable leather. A dark vernis is more durable, but even dark colors scuff and scratch. I have a vernis amaranthe Alma, which I love. The leather doesn’t crack, but even with minimal use and babying, it has a few scratches and scuffs.
I laughed out loud when I read her comment. Love Seinfeld! ❤️
I think was 12 and living in the projects when that show was canceled. I have seen one or two episodes. Maybe I’ll watch more at some point.
