"Men usually don't buy wallets, they receive them as gifts", is it true in your experience? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Apparently it's a trend that most men just receive wallets rather than buying them

Anecdotal I know but I’ve purchased probably 95% of the wallets I’ve owned through the years (I’m old so it’s a lot)

I use my pocket as a wallet. It's as slim as you can get. The last wallet I had I bought myself. It was a nice two fold leather one.

I wouldn't want a random gift of a wallet (with a probable exception of an obscenely expensive high quality leather that's really well hand crafted, maybe.) You don't know me well enough to know what I'd consider an upgrade.

I intend to eventually add a couple pockets to my ereader sleeve so that serves double duty and I don't need a separate wallet. But until then I just want it out of my way.

I'm pretty sure I bought my first one or two wallets, but they were low quality. I got a good/name brand wallet as a gift 20 years ago that I'm still using.

It's a belief, not a trend.

I think I have purchased all mine. My current Ridge wallet, literally changed my life.

I've done or had both, so results unclear.
