I’ve been vegan for nearly 18 years now, and vegetarian for my whole life before that, so I have owned quite a few vegan wallets over the years. I know how tricky it can be to find a vegan wallet that’s durable and well-made, but also looks good. That’s why I put this post together years ago, and update it every year, with my recommendations of vegan wallets – based on testing and using a LOT of different vegan wallets over the years! Here are my top picks of the best brands for vegan wallets, based on my years of experience.

Matt & Nat vegan wallet range

100% vegan company

My pick: Matt and Nat Cloe vegan wristlet wallet or Matt and Nat Trip wallet

If you’re looking for a long-lasting wallet, vegan brand Matt & Nat are one of the best-known vegan bag and accessoreis makers and have some of the best vegan wallets, or at least the widest range.

I have a Matt and Nat wallet that I’ve owned for nearly 10 years and it’s still going strong! I’m really happy with how durable it’s been.

My top pick is the vegan leather Cloe wristlet. The Matt and Nat wristlet consists of a large non leather wallet with a detachable wristlet. It has 6 card slots and 1 slip pocket. The interior linings, like all Matt & Nat wallets and bags, is made of recycled plastic bottles.

My other pick is the Matt and Nat Trip wallet, a large vegan travel wallet. The vegan leather used is made of recycled materials, and it has 13 cards slots, a passport slot and a zippered coin pouch. Perfect for all your travels!


Watson & Wolfe vegan wallets

Watson and Wolfe make high quality, classic-style vegan wallets. I love their use of innovative materials too, such as a coin purse made of vegan corn leather. Corn leather is a sustainable vegan leather alternative made with 30% plant materials. It’s also lightweight and durable as well as water-resistant and stain- and scratch-resistant.

They also have some RFID blocking vegan wallets. RFID blocking is usually done by a thin layer of carbon fibre inside the wallet and it’s lightweight too. They even make an RFID-blocking nano card holder, which contains just one pocket for cards. Don’t let its small size fool you, though – it will hold up to eight cards. I love travelling light so this look perfect.


Will’s Vegan Store wallets

100% vegan company

My pick: Billfold mens vegan leather wallet

Will’s started life as an ethical brand making only vegan men’s shoes and then their range of cruelty-free products expanded to include women’s shoes, plus men’s and women’s bags, cruelty free wallets and other accessories.

IMO their range is ideal if you’re looking for a classic-style wallet. All their products I’ve had have been well-made and durable. My pick is the Billfold coin wallet is simple, elegant and will do the job. This vegan wallet for men has 3 card slots and one large multipurpose pocket.

Leafii

100% vegan company

My pick: Sofia wallet

Leaf leather? Yes, it’s a thing! These leather free wallets are made of LEAVES! How cool is that? I remember seeing it a few years ago and a vegan fair and being amazed.

Using a traditional Thai process, teak leaves are collected off the ground (or a few low level leaves are clipped, but trees are never cut), soaked and dyed. They are then coated in BOPP film, a non-toxic and biodegradable polymer that when incinerated only lets off water vapor and carbon dioxide. Leaf leather doesn’t need to be treated, like animal leather. Simply wipe clean with a damp cloth (and mild soap if needed).

My pick is the Sofia wallet, which I own (see my pic above). Mine is teal and it gets endless compliments. It’s actually more beautiful than the pictures on Leafii’s site IMO. You can see all the veins of the leaves and it looks so cool.


Labante luxury vegan wallets

100% vegan company

My pick: Kenia wallet

Labante is a vegan, sustainable and sweatshop-free company making vegan products like bags and premium vegan leather wallets. They are also PETA approved vegan.

My pick is the Kenia wallet, which I’ve been using as my main wallet for the last few years It’s well-made, high-quality vegan leather and seems very durable. It also has plenty of card slots inside, which I love.


Dark brown cork wallet

Corkor cork wallets

My pick: Corkor vegan RFID wallet

Corkor makes cork-based bags and wallets. Cork is one of the most sustainable materials, thanks to the fast-growing properties of cork trees, plus the fact that they can be harvested without cutting the trees down. They also don’t require much input in the way of water or fertiliser. 

My top pick cork wallet is their vegan cardholder (above) that’s also RFID blocking. This non leather card holder has 3 card slots, an ID window and 2 compartments for folded bills. Like all cork materials, this Corkor wallet is lightweight – it only weighs 0.7 oz / 20 grams. The other great thing about a cork leather wallet is that cork is naturally water resistant and scratch resistant.


Canussa vegan wallets

100% vegan company

Canussa is a vegan handbag brand based in Spain. All their bags and wallets are made in Spain and they use sustainable materials, such as vegan apple leather and recycled materials. I have one of their totes and I love it! It’s very well-made and a great classic style, plus I’m happy knowing it was made in a fair working environment.


Stella McCartney vegan designer wallets

My top pick: Falabella continental wallet

As a lifelong vegetarian, Stella McCartney’s bags and wallets are all entirely leather free (while all Stella McCartney shoes, bags and wallets are vegan, the clothing range isn’t entirely vegan, as some of the clothes contain wool or silk). However, if you’re looking for vegan luxury wallet, my top pick is the Falabella Continental vegan leather designer wallet.

This non leather designer wallet comes in a range of colours and the trim is the iconic silver diamond-cut chain (like the Falabella bags). I was lucky enough to win a Falabella bag on eBay a few years ago – now I just wish I could find a matching Falabella wallet.


Herschel (vegan options)

My pick: Roy wallet

Hershel (yes, the company known for their backpacks) has a number of canvas wallets among their collection, and more recently, they introduced vegan leather options.

While not all of their products are vegan, and they have leather wallets you’ll need to avoid, they have clearly marked their vegan leather wallets.

My pick is the Roy wallet, a classic bifold men’s vegan wallet with multiple card slots and a pocket for cash. 


Svala

100% vegan company

My pick: Mia vegan card wallet

Svala makes vegan bags and vegan women’s wallets from European fabrics and manufactures them in LA, in a factory where workers are treated fairly. 

My pick is the Mia vegan leather card holder, which has four card slots and one open bill pocket. It’s crafted from vegan Italian leather and lined with recycled polyester made from plastic bottles combined with organic cotton.


Couch wallets

My pick: Vintage Volkswagen wallet

Couch, known for their guitar straps, also makes non leather wallets. Their coolest range, in my opinion, are the wallets made from upcycled car upholstery.

My pick is the Vintage Volkswagen wallet, made with vinyl from the 1970s used to upholster VW Beetles. 


Dark green crocodile print vegan wallet with gold ring

JW Pei vegan wallets

100% vegan company

My top pick: Aladdin Wallet Dark Green Croc

JW Pei is an accessory brand that makes womens vegan leather wallets and bags in an affordable price range. My pick is the Aladdin vegan small wallet comes in a dark green crocodile print vegan leather. Inside it has space for cards and cash. It’s great for the budget price, IMO.
