The raw materials used in wallet making are generally cowhide, and the edges are sealed by gluing and oil edge technology, and sewn by sewing or hand. Wallets usually have two money slots, which can be used to hold money of different denominations, and 4-6 card slots can hold bank cards and identity documents, which is an indispensable equipment in people's daily life at any time.
The development history of wallet
Wallet was first born in Rome in 1 1 century. At that time, there were few pockets for personal belongings on the clothes of European or Mediterranean residents, so many people made a pocket of leather or silk to hang around their waist to hold valuables. This kind of clothes was widely circulated during the cowboy period in the western United States.
At that time, the image of a cowboy with a heavy wallet hanging around his waist, wearing a wide-brimmed felt hat, jeans, leather jacket and boots appeared in many subsequent movies. But the wallet of that period can only be called wallet, which means wallet in Chinese. Real wallets are developed with the development of modern clothes.
The current development of wallets is mainly influenced by suits. Because the occasion of wearing is very formal and serious, the requirements for wearing are very strict. When wearing it, it must fit perfectly with the body, with a fixed pattern, and there must be no wrinkles and bloat. So the pockets of suits are decorative and can't hold anything.
However, in real life, in the development of suits, people's lives will be very inconvenient if they are completely required not to carry anything. So according to the requirements of the suit, the wallet is about 20 cm wide and 9 cm high. Put the money in and fold it up to become a modern wallet with a length of 10 cm and a width of 9 cm. Putting it in a suit pocket will not damage the image of the suit. With the popularity of jeans and casual pants, wallets that can be put in trouser pockets have quickly become a necessity in modern life. There are many different styles and styles of wallets to meet the needs of people with different tastes in life.
