All products are made by hand using only high-quality materials with extreme attention to detail.    See our 36 second video of the whole process.

Our main focus is on leather quality. For the manufacturing of our belts, wallets, bags and other accessories we only use full-grain leather. This type of leather was not been sanded, buffed, or snuffed to remove imperfections or natural marks on the surface of the hide (as opposed to top-grain or corrected leather), so the grain has not been altered. The grain allows for fiber's strength and durability.
Full-grain leather is considered among the best quality leathers available.

The choice of the supplier of leather was stopped at one of the oldest leather companies in the US - Horween Leather Company.

This hand-stitched wallet is made of premium full-grain leather from the Horween tannery, which is located in Chicago.
There is no lining in this wallet.

It has the rectangular appearance, not square. The difference between the sides is quite small, but it is noticeable.

The wallet has a solid look and feel. Heavy leather, tightly spaced pocket details. It is sturdy, does not dangle when opened. Even with just a couple of dollars inside, it won't look empty and scanty. Also it won't turn into a “round pie” if you fill it.

Immediately after the purchase, not a lot of cards and bills will fit into this wallet, this is not a that type of a bifold in which you can carry a bundle of bills and cards.  
However, this leather tends to stretch over the time and it takes the desired shape. After a while, you will be able to hold twice as much as on your first day after purchase.

This wallet is a modern classic. It’s not like your grandfather’s and it’s not like your neighbor’s teenager.

You will enjoy the smell of leather, pleasant smooth texture and strong seam which gives you the reliability that this wallet provides.
