"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

I have never bought a wallet for myself. Someone in my life has always gifted me one when it gets raggedy. I was thinking of taking up leather working as a hobby to make my own, but it looks hard.

I found leather working to be relatively easy and fun. I guess it depends on what your goals are. I'm planning to get back into it during the holiday break.

Cutting, gluing, and sewing are the basics. After that, you can get into fun stuff like dying and embossing.

And compared to what nice finished leather sells for, it's cheap.

Could be fun, thanks for the reply.
