Some people like to wear more than one type of body-wrap at a time, like one to wear around the ankle and another to clip around the waist so their money, keys, and ID are located in multiple places.

Many types of ankle wallets and other body wallets are unisex in design, meaning they should be worn by both men and women. Sometimes the straps can be too big for people with small bones, so the ankle wallet should be tried on for a correct size.
