Fit and carry: two card slots, no bulk

A deliberately small wallet. Two card slots and folded bills. The cards you use, not the ones you carry in case. It weighs about 30 g and keeps a slim profile in a pocket. If you carry six or eight cards, buy a wallet built for six or eight.

How I hand-stitch each bi-fold wallet

Every seam is sewn by hand, start to finish. The thread is cream Ritza Tiger 0.6 mm, a German waxed thread.

Caring for a hand-stitched wallet

The leather softens with use and moulds to whatever you keep in it. Keep it dry and feed it a neutral leather conditioner about once a year; it needs nothing else. If it gets wet, let it dry on its own and do not scratch or stretch it while damp.

Warranty and shipping

Every piece carries a lifetime warranty: if the stitching or the leather fails structurally in normal use, I repair or replace it free for as long as you own it. Photographs and proof of purchase are required, and you cover postage to me while I cover the return. Refunds are not offered for change of mind, for a wallet that has been used, or for ordinary ageing; the narrow cases where a refund does apply are set out in the returns and warranty terms.

I ship worldwide, tracked and insured. Priority Worldwide averages 2–3 business days in transit and Xpresspost Worldwide 6–13. Those are carrier transit times, not making time, and delivery dates are not guaranteed. Details on the shipping FAQ.

Questions

How much does it hold?

Two card slots and folded bills.

Does it loosen up with use?

Yes. The leather softens and moulds to what you keep in it.

What is the difference between the two style options?

They are the two leathers I have on hand. Premium Italian and New world Brown are option names, not hide origins.

What happens if a seam fails?

I repair or replace it free for as long as you own it. Send photographs and your order number. See the returns and warranty terms.

What if it gets wet?

Let it dry on its own. Do not scratch or stretch it while damp; the colour and feel come back.
