Wallets, Chains, and Reins

Im currently using this wallet:  http://falerbrand.tumblr.com/post/24914240661/horween-black-shell-cordovan-exterior-and-wickett

I found out about his guy on superdenim.  Prices are extremely fair, all made in usa everything by one guy, and the craftsmanship is basically flawless.  I will post up a more recent pic, as the link above shows the wallet new.  I have had it for a few months now and the shell has that matte patina glow its known for.  how to capture that in a photo is another thing entirely…

It makes sense…

after like two weeks of back and forth they are saying they dont wanna make it
first cause they didnt have a tool then cause they "dont know about the long term quality of my design"
pretty bummed about this
someone else will make it for me (hopefully)

Wow that stinks…I am so sorry.  I'd guess it was the tool to make the holes in the leather?  Maybe ask them to try and find the tool.  I asked for hickory denim on a wallet and they went and found it.  Also they told me they didn't have the fabric but later came back and said they found it

[natehate]

already emailed james as we've been back and forth on some other stuff

and the ebay guy is worried about the holes and edging not holding up over time

man james is quick at responding

[natehate]

and james is the man
details worked out and we compromised and met in the middle
pics in a month ish

[natehate]

James will be sending me pics of the process and pics when it's done. I'll post up as I get them cause I know how much we all love pretty pictures.

These are the wallets i asked to be made.  What do u guys think?  For $60 each i figured why not get 2.

[joesaintjohn]

Did you to that with your hem trimmings?

[Dirty Denim]

No just some guy i found on Ebay.  Took him a bit to find me the hickory fabric (2 or 3 weeks).  He also did the wallet in the 1st post up there

[natehate]

[unharmed]

Nice stuff Dirty. I bought a reign with a really nice brass hook from the same seller a few weeks ago for $20. More than satisfied

[natehate]

[Dirty Denim]

[natehate]
