Very low Saddleback Leather Wallet Bi-fold Medium Coffee Brown

Dimensions: 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"; 6 simple card slots, but since leather stretches, each will hold at least three; 2 simple deep inside pockets for receipts; 1 simple cash compartment; Simply lined with pigskin, which is the 2nd toughest leather. Kangaroo is the toughest. One solid outer piece of leather so it won't fall apart at the seams. Wallets come apart at the seams and so the fewer the seams the longer it will last. Of each hide, about 20% ends up on the floor in the form of small scraps. Some companies quilt the little pieces together to make cheap wallets and other small things. We don't. We use large solid pieces on every design because that's quality. 100% Non-tenderized Full Grain leather, not the weaker top grain, genuine or bonded leathers. I laugh when I hear people talk about how soft and buttery their wallet was when they first received it. Basically, the tannery weakened the leather by tumbling it for several extra hours to tear the fibers apart (softening it up). They take years of life out of the leather when they do that. The same concept is done with a meat cleaver on a cut of meat to tenderize it. This wallet will be a little stiff at first, but will mold to your hiney and habits. Let life tenderize it, it'll last longer that way.

  • Simple, slender and unfancy; 6 slots (leather stretches to fit 3-4 cards each), 2 pockets and a place for your cash. If you want creative thick and fancy features, you're in the wrong place.
  • Thick, but not too thick 100% Full Grain leather, not inferior top grain, genuine or bonded leather. Our leather isn't tenderized from the tannery (broken down -often described as buttery soft). That's your job.
  • 100 yr. warranty. If it wears out before you do, we'll replace it for free. I know that's a big claim, but you'll understand when you get it.
  • Lined with pigskin, which is tougher than cow skin
  • Sewn with industrial marine grade thick Polyester thread at 7 stitches per inch as opposed to cheaper nylon thread at 9 stitches per inch.
