Here’s a look at how my customers’ purchases are aging over time. Each item will develop its own unique patina depending on how you use it, how often, and what it’s exposed to. That’s the magic of using high-end Full Grain Vegetable Tanned Leather.

The Mens Leather Wallet is the perfect mix of a traditional bifold and modern minimalism, allowing you to easily slip it unnoticed into your pocket. The slim form will hold all of your daily card and cash needs without the bulk. Each one is handmade here in my small U.S. workshop with the highest grade Full-Grain leather. It's a tough wallet meant to last through heavy use for years.
This wallet is designed and built using solid brass rivets that don't wear out and fray like traditionally stitched wallets. Once you fully break this leather wallet in, it should hold 8 to 12 cards and a medium stack of cash. Now shipping with a free tin of my shop-made natural leather conditioner.
(UPDATE: 2/8/24) New Golden hardware options and chains. Now you can fully customize the look of your wallet by selecting either the Silver finish (solid brass rivets and snaps with a nickel plating), or Golden finish (Solid Brass). For chain info please see the chain chart images.
What Is Full Grain Leather?
This is the uppermost layer of hide with the most compact and dense fiber structure of any style of leather. It is by far the strongest type of leather you can use, resistant to wear, abuse and stretch. Full grain leather far surpasses the longevity of lower grades common in store bought items like top grain, bonded, genuine and patent leathers. You'll notice the difference immediately when you watch how beautifully this wallet ages with time and use.

CURRENCY:
The non-snap version of this wallet will fit U.S. Dollars, Canadian, Australian, Japanese, and some of the smaller (in height) Euro and British bills that are similar in size to the US Dollar notes.
The Snap version of this wallet is slightly taller and will fit Euro bills up to the 50 Euro note, and British bills up to the 20 Pound note.
SIZE:
The non-snap version of this wallet measures approximately 3.125 x 4.25 inches when folded and is about 5/16 inch (10mm) at its thickest point.
The snap version of this wallet measures approximately 3.25 x 4.5 inches when folded and is about 5/16 inch (10mm) at its thickest leather only point. The snaps are slightly thicker, but once the wallet is loaded with cards and cash – the snap area equals or is thinner than the loaded wallet.
The Mens Leather Wallet will easily fit 6 – 8 cards initially (up to 12 or so once broken in), receipts notes and bills. You must allow the wallet a bit of time to be broken in so that it may stretch to fit your needs. Once fully broken in (about 1-2 weeks or so) you can add even more cards. This wallet is built entirely from one continuous cut of leather folded onto itself and the interior divider will initially be the same length as the outer piece. The exterior leather will eventually break in and lengthen slightly more than the divider as is typical in traditionally cut wallets.
WALLET FINISH OPTION:
Silver: When selected all hardware on the wallet itself will be solid brass with a matte nickel plating for that silver look. The plated hardware is created in a much higher-end process than you might be used to. It is a few layers thick and considered the best in the industry.
Golden: When selected all hardware on the wallet will be a solid brass with that golden look. Solid brass is a unique type of metal in that it will develop a patina with the wallet as it ages.
CLOSURE OPTIONS:
This wallet now comes with the option to add Button Snaps to help keep your cards and cash secure, and the wallet closed. It’s perfect for those needing that extra bit of security and works great if you tend to toss your wallet on a shelf, in your day bag, or on your desk. If you opt for the Button Snaps, we will install them on the edges of the wallet as shown in the photos. The buttons are solid brass and come in two finishes: Silver or Golden, they increase the height and length of the wallet marginally to accommodate placement. In addition – all options will include two rivets installed just behind the card slots to tighten up the card pocket area.
