These Are The 25 Best Wallets for Women in 2023

Women have such a large repertoire of accessories they use, ranging from different types of shoes for specific occasions, jewelry, watches,  handbags, sunglasses, not to mention wallets, that it can get very complicated. Wallets actually fall into the need category because, let’s face it, we all have to carry our I.D. with us when we leave the house, as well as credit cards, bank cards, not to mention some cash in our wallets.

Of course, there are so many different styles and varieties, you can go shopping for days and end up getting overwhelmed if you don’t assess your needs first.

We are here to point you in the right direction and help you find something to fit your lifestyle, taste, but most of all, your budget. You don’t need to spend a whole paycheck on a highly functional and good quality wallet. So here’s a guide on the types of wallets that exist, and what to look for when shopping for a wallet.

Types of Wallets

• Bifold: As the name suggests, they fold in two, with a section for cards and one for cash.
• Trifold: When you fold this wallet it looks like a bifold, but it has an extra section, and is usually a bit bulkier.
• Accordion: Again, the name is self-explanatory. When you open it up it folds out like an accordion, with several compartments for all your needs.
• Cardholder: This is just a thinner variety of wallet that is specifically for cards only. Some might have a pouch where you can slip in some bills.
• Coin Purse: A pouch, usually on the smallish side that you can toss your coins in, to keep separate from your main wallet or cardholder.
• Wristlet: This type of wallet features a strap that goes around your wrist for those nights out when you don’t feel like carrying a handbag.
• Clutch-wallet: The biggest wallets on the list, they serve double-duty as a purse and a wallet. Some have a cross-body strap and a slot for your phone.

What to Look For in a Wallet

Depending on what type of needs you have, there are several features to pay attention to:

Zipper: a wrap-around zipper is very convenient, especially if you’re the type to carry all your receipts, notes, as well as everything else you need in your wallet.

Card Slots: Most of us have more than a couple of cards that we need at all times, so make sure the wallet has enough card slots to fit all of yours.

Concealed Pockets: Those are actually pretty neat features to have, if you want to keep some valuables or cash on you, especially when travelling.

Bill Pocket: Most of us don’t carry cash anymore, but it is always great to have the option to. Also convenient to keep those receipts that you might need in case you want to return a purchase.

Coin Pocket: If you do like to carry coins with you, make sure the wallet has a zipper or magnetic closure to prevent them from falling out.

RFID blocking technology: One of the most important features to look for when purchasing a new wallet. The technology is equipped to block radio waves hackers use to access your info.

Smartphone pocket: Some of the larger sized wallets feature a larger compartment so you can fit your smartphone in.

Strap: Again, the larger wallets can be used as cross-body bags thanks to the strap, perfect for when you need your hands free.

Wallet Material

Most wallets are made from leather, but you can find some in sustainable and environmentally certified materials, as well as canvas or polyester, depending on your needs. The leather wallets are more elegant, whereas the canvas or polyester are great for a more sporty or casual look.

Wallet Colors

This really comes down to personal taste, because you can find wallets in every color imaginable. There are many designs and patterns available, but if you want a versatile wallet that will go with literally everything and will never go out of style, stick to neutral colors and hues.
