What to Engrave on a Wallet: 25 Ideas
When someone orders a wallet from us, the question we hear most is simple: what should I put on it? It is a fair question. A wallet goes everywhere with you, so the design should say something about the person carrying it.
To help, here are 25 ideas, grouped by the kind of person you are shopping for. Most of them are designs already in our wallet builder, where you pick a color, choose Landscape or Portrait, and see a live preview. The personal ideas at the end go through our Custom Image Metal Wallet.
Ideas for people who love the outdoors
- Elk Bugling. For the elk hunter who plans the whole fall around September.
- Mule Deer Mountains. Mule deer and mountains, a natural fit for deer hunters.
- Camping & Fishing. For the person whose best weekends start with a tent and a rod.
- Trout Flag or Bass Flag. Pick the fish they actually chase.
- Campfire & Mountains. A simple, peaceful scene for anyone who likes a night under the stars.
- Bear Mountain. A good pick for backcountry hikers and hunters alike.
Hometown and Oregon ideas
We are a Redmond, Oregon shop, so we have a soft spot for these.
- Crater Lake. Oregon’s best-known lake, on a wallet.
- Broken Top Mountain. A favorite view for anyone who knows Central Oregon.
- Bachelor Mountain or Sisters Mountains. For skiers, hikers and anyone who grew up looking at the Cascades.
- Oregon Home Moon or Oregon Home Sun. Pick the moon or the sun, for Oregonians at home or far away.
- Small Town. For someone proud of where they come from, wherever that is.
Patriotic and service ideas
- We The People. A classic patriotic design that works for almost anyone.

- Star of Life or Back The Blue. For EMTs, medics and law enforcement.

Personal ideas with the Custom Image wallet
Sometimes the best design is one nobody else has. With the Custom Image Metal Wallet you upload your own logo, artwork, drawing or handwriting, and we engrave it. It is $50 to $55.
- A date that matters. A wedding day, a birthday or the day someone came home.
- Coordinates. The spot where you met, got engaged or built a home.
- A child’s drawing. A kid’s doodle turns into something Dad or Grandpa carries every day.
- Handwriting. A short note or signature from a card or letter.
- A logo or a simple drawing. A favorite dog, or the logo of a small business you are proud of.
Whatever design you choose, every wallet has a black cash clip, and name engraving on the clip is free and optional. Add a name, initials or a nickname at checkout in the builder. It is a nice way to make a design from our list feel like it was made just for one person.
All of our metal wallets are aluminum with RFID blocking and hold 2 to 15 cards. The laser removes the colored surface and shows the bright metal underneath, so the design is part of the wallet and won’t peel or rub off.
Pick your design, pick your color
