In terms of must-have items the average man wants in his wardrobe, a passport holder is not exactly ‘priority boarding’. In fact, a little canvas or leather jacket for your passport to wear is probably at the bottom of the list alongside things like ‘chocolate teapot’ and ‘underwater fish tank’.

However, if you spend a lot of time airborne, forking out for something to keep your travel permit from looking like it’s done five rounds with Conor McGregor may not seem like such an unnecessary expense. If you care about your holiday style, it’s the finishing touch to your travel wardrobe.

Passport holders have been protecting the travel documents of frequent flyers since someone first had the good sense to start making them. If you don’t have one already, you may want to think about coughing up and joining this alternative (and admittedly less exciting) mile high club in a bid to stop your ticket out of here from getting all dog-eared and coffee stained.

But before you get your wallet out and use it to buy another slightly bigger one, check out our rundown of the best passport holders out there. That way you’ll wind up with something jet set and stylish, as well as functional enough to keep your passport safe the next time you take to the skies.
