First off, there’s this whole vibe with Balenciaga. It’s… edgy? Expensive, duh. But also, like, a little bit “I don’t care what you think” kinda chic. And that totally comes across in their wallets.
I saw this one listing that was just… a mess. It started in Portuguese (“Compre Bolsas Balenciaga Original no Brasil…”), which, okay, cool, Balenciaga is global! Then it jumped into care instructions (“wipe with a soft, dry, natural-colored cloth…”). Like, who even *reads* those things? I guess if you’re dropping serious cash on a wallet, you *might* care. Probably not, tho.
Then there’s StockX. StockX for wallets? Seriously? Feels kinda weird, like buying, I dunno, lettuce on the stock market. But hey, if you’re into it, you’re into it. I guess it’s a way to snag a deal? Maybe.
And then… passport wallets! Who even *uses* passport wallets anymore? I feel like everything’s digital these days. But okay, Balenciaga makes ’em, so they must be selling, right? Maybe it’s for that bougie “I’m so worldly” look? I dunno.
Net-A-Porter, though, that’s where it’s at. At least visually. They’ve got the mini leather wallets, the logo-printed cardholders, the zip-up wallets… the whole shebang. It’s a dangerous place for my bank account. Like, I *need* a little logo-printed cardholder, right? Right??
Honestly, trying to figure out the Balenciaga wallet game is kinda like navigating a really weird, really expensive maze. You see bits and pieces everywhere – ads, marketplaces, care instructions in random languages – and you’re just trying to piece it all together.
And the prices! Oh my god, the prices. You could buy, like, a whole *car* for the price of some of these things. Okay, maybe not a *whole* car. But a really decent used car.
