Fabric, vinyl, plastic, even duct tape—you can make a portfel out of any sort of material.
However, a portfel is a must-have, daily use item. You’d like it to last, and you want it to look good. So, it’s worth investing in a top-notch portfel.

When you want the best, leather is king.
“Highest quality material & craftsmanship. The card pockets are the perfect size. Has everything you need in a portfel and nothing else. Love the smell of the leather.”
Leather is the classic portfel material, and remains the overwhelming favorite among male portfel owners.
While leather is the best portfel material, at Junyuan Bags we bring you the best of the best—the highest quality leather, expertly assembled into designs that are proven winners.
Generally speaking, wallets can be unisex. Of course, some designs lean more towards female fashion, while others are a more practical fit for the fellas. In this guide, we’ll focus on men’s styles. Let’s have a look at the best men’s portfel options for 2022.

1 — TRADITIONAL BILLFOLD WALLET
English Tan Traditional Portfel
Heritage Brown Traditional Portfel
Junyuan Bags’s Traditional Portfel is a straightforward and classic design. It’s not too big, not too small. Understated, but definitely stylish.
Here’s what you’ll get with the Traditional Portfel:

- Six card slots that can each fit two cards
- Wide billfold cash pocket
”Finest quality portfel I’ve ever owned. Tastefully crafted of the finest leather, I look forward to using and breaking it in for many years to come!”
2 — FOUR CARD BILLFOLD WALLET
The Four Card Billfold Portfel is a billfold alternative if you prefer a bit more room for cash and even coins. The extra space is created by cutting down on the card slots, with just four in this design.
This is a beautiful and minimalist billfold-style portfel that takes on the perfect back-pocket shape.
Here are the details for the Four Card Billfold Portfel:
- Dimensions: 3.5” wide, 4” tall, 0.5” thick

3 — FIVE CARD WALLET
Natural 5 Card Portfel
English Tan and Natural 5 Card Wallets
The Five Card Portfel is an absolute treat for minimalists. There’s a total of five card slots. That includes a front pocket for easy access—slide a card or some cash in and out while the portfel is still folded up.
With room for a few cards in each slot, this portfel can also hold around ten folded bills. If you like a slimmed-down portfel, you’ve got everything you need without a lot of bulky pockets and folds.
The product specs for the Five Card Portfel are as follows:
- Dimensions: 4” wide, 2.9” tall, 0.4” thick
- Four card slots that can each fit multiple cards
- Quick-access front pocket
”Today, I received the 5 card portfel, and I was fully surprised. It is the best portfel I have ever had in my life. Keep up the great work, despite the demand.”
4 – TRIFOLD WALLET
English Tan Trifold
Natural Trifold
We use the word minimalist to describe our design style. That’s because our portfel styles don’t waste space. High quality materials and precisely planned shapes allow for an absence of bulk.
While we like to keep things tight and slim, we also know that some portfel users need a bit more storage space. To that end, the Trifold Portfel is more substantial in size. There’s more leather to patina, more leather to create that enticing aroma, more leather to love.
This design spans 9.8” in width when it’s unfolded. There’s room for all your cards and cash, plus an ID window. While it’s our largest style, it remains reasonably slim.
Full product details for the Trifold Portfel:
- Dimensions: 3.45” wide, 4.25” tall, 0.75” thick
- Four card slots and an ID-window that can each fit multiple cards
- Wide cash pocket that holds up to 20 bills
“I am very pleased with the overall quality and workmanship of my new tri-fold portfel. I have about 10 cards so the filled portfel is a bit thick but since this has always been my portfel size I am used to it. The leather is beautiful, the stitching is solid and immaculate. Ordering was easy and shipping was timely. Highly recommend!”
5 — CARD HOLDER WALLET
Natural Front Pocket Card Holder
Black Front Pocket Card Holder
The Card Holder Portfel is another sleek, slim, and stylish take on minimalist portfel design. In fact, the Card Holder’s modest dimensions make it our smallest men’s portfel.
There’s a main pocket and an easy-access front pocket. The overall storage capacity is for around six cards along with some folded cash.
The contents are held snugly in place thanks to the design and material, but it’s easy to slide your cash and cards in and out. Slip a few cards into the main pocket and a few bills into the front pocket, and you’re good to go for a night on the town—with no uncomfortable bulk in your front or back pants pocket.
Here are the specs for the Card Holder Portfel:
- Dimensions: 2.8” wide, 3.75” tall, 0.28” thick
- Inner and outer pocket for storing up to six cards plus cash
- For another take on minimalist portfel design, check out the ID Portfel. It’s a similarly slim design with a nifty ID window.
”Awesome! After a really long internet search, I finally stumbled over this minimalist card portfel and its design and simplicity immediately convinced me. I have now used it daily for several weeks and I couldn’t be happier.
The craftsmanship and material quality are excellent, it looks amazing, and the design is (for me at least) the perfect balance between simplicity, ease-of-use, and function.
It’s really easy to get to all the cards. I keep most of them in the main slot, my credit card in the quick access slot, and a bit of cash in the third slot.
It’s so simple but works so well—I don’t need more portfel than this! I’d highly recommend this outstanding product to anyone searching for a minimalist portfel.”
