FAQs:
What's the difference between a coin purse and a travel pouch?
Coin purses are smaller (10-12cm) for cards, coins, and small items. Travel pouches are medium (20-25cm) for chargers, cosmetics, and small toiletries. Travel pouches have waterproof inner lining; coin purses are cotton-lined.
Are the purses waterproof?
Most travel pouches and makeup pouches have a waterproof inner lining. The cotton canvas exterior is wipe-clean but not fully waterproof — it handles light rain but not submersion.
Are these good as small gifts?
Yes. Purses are popular under-$30 gifts for office Secret Santa, teacher gifts, and small thank-you presents. Pair with a card for a $40-50 gift package.
