Cordovan Men’s Wallet with Coin Purse

Our leather manufacturers Kreis & Co. have made this classic wallet for us out of Shell Cordovan horse leather, a world-renowned product of the Chicago tanners Horween. It’s a practically indestructible wallet for paper money only (hence ‘classic’!) with additional credit card compartments, but with no coin compartment. The wallet has been cleverly designed to be made out of only two cuts of leather, and has only one single layer of stitching. In particular there’s no stitching at the corners that normally bear the brunt of daily wear-and-tear: here the manufacturers have had to be extra generous with this exclusive leather. ‘Shells’ – unlike other leathers – are smooth on both sides. No lining is necessary (and would actually be undesirable). A wallet to last a lifetime.

Horsehide leather has a high wax content. Additional greasing is counter-productive, and gives the leather a ‘dead’ look. Simply polish with a good-quality cloth from time to time.
