A wallet is one of the most popular accessories, the choice of which the fair sex is no less responsible than the selection of a dress, shoes or handbags. At the same time, many dream of having a Gucci wallet in their purse - not just a functional and convenient item, but a real style sample that can complement absolutely any image.
Gucci wallet: a fashion and quality accessory for men and women
The first wallets, or rather, their prototypes appeared almost along with the first money. All kinds of bags were used as places for storing coins, which were hidden in the folds of clothes. In the 14th century, pockets appeared on clothes and money began to be stored in them.
But soon protruding pockets, spoiling the appearance, forced people to invent other attributes for storing money.
The modern attribute for money appeared in the 19th century. New inventions were different in shape and size, made of various materials.
At present, their range is so wide that the choice depends only on the preferences of the owner (hostess) of the accessory. Among the most stylish and status ones are gizmos of the world famous Gucci trademark.
Features
The Gucci brand has long been one of the benchmarks of quality, elegance and sophistication. For more than a century, beautiful wallets and purses have been produced under this brand. All of them are made exclusively of genuine leather (lamb, calf, crocodile, snake and even shark and sea stingrays are used), and differ:
- high quality;
- functionality;
- aesthetics;
- exclusivity.
The paint is evenly distributed on them and from the inside they look no less neat than from the outside.

Selection rules
When choosing a leather accessory, first of all, you should pay attention to its quality.
Accessories from well-known brands, including those from Gucci, always have all seams perfectly even. They are equipped with a beautiful lining and have a pleasant aroma.
Fasteners should be strong, but not tight, decorative elements should not damage the skin or cause inconvenience to the owner of the accessory.
As for the paint, only natural paint is used for coloring branded products, which should not dirty your hands or bag.
Also, when choosing, personal preferences and the age of the buyer play a role. For example, large red ones are the choice of middle-aged women. Young people prefer bright and original models.
How not to run into a fake?
This original product of a well-known company is not cheap. But she has a lot of cheaper replicas. It is clear that along with the price, the quality of the products decreases. There are those who consciously make a choice in favor of a replica, but how to protect yourself from a fake if you are going to buy the original?
To do this, remember a few rules:
- If the product is offered a big discount, most likely it is not Gucci. For branded items, discounts are usually not made.
- If there is at least a small flaw in quality, this is also a fake. All products of the Italian brand have perfectly even seams, high-quality leather. All stitches are the same length, and the threads are matched exactly to the tone of the wallet. Can not differ in shades and details.
- On all models without exception, there is a company logo made of metal and having a clear shape without spots.The letters “G” stuck together are a sign of a poorly executed copy.
- The company never makes accessories from plastic. Only metal.
- Gucci products always have beautiful packaging: a suede bag with a company logo and a cardboard box.
Before buying, you should carefully examine the product and if it meets all of the above criteria, then this is an original and fashionable wallet from the Italian brand, which will become a truly valuable and status acquisition for both men and women.
