Wallets, Chains, and Reins
-
I found a picture of a couple of well loved Redmoon wallets on Megumi Goto's blog.
He adds, and I'm paraphrasing this from the Googlish auto-translation, that the thread is intended to fail first so that it doesn't damage the leather. That might explain some of the complaints about stitching, or it might be just Goto-san covering himself.
Speaking of stitching, the Crow wallets look very tidy.
That's from the Crow C15AN, which I'm very taken with. And 2ND offer it in red…

Cross posted from the hwdc2 thread:
I've decided to post this here since it's still heavyweight related. So, a little backstory: I love the work that Ray at The Blackacre did with my wallet so much that I decided to ask him about making me another one. I kept the cuttoffs from my MBBs and purchased one of the Iron Heart silver rings. I asked Ray about making a wallet that would incorporate both - a heavyweight wallet if you will. I don't have it in my possession yet, but the teaser photo that Ray sent me has me too excited not to share.
And without further ado - here is what will soon be my Blackacre wallet with 25oz iron heart denim.

Been watching the updates via his Instagram. Looks amazing. How much did it end up costing?

Yeah, that's a really sick wallet.

I don't need a wallet but I may try to dream up a leather good to commission with my wabash cutoff material.

I'm actually not sure on the individual price b/c I commissioned a wallet for my wife as well. Needless to say, I'm a satisfied and return customer.

A little cross posting action about the wallet I recently received from Ray Lansburg at The Blackacre. My cell phone snaps aren't as nice as Ray's pro photos, but I hope you guys like them. This wallet is amazing.

Damn is super nice man! How much is it? Where can I purchase it?
Thanks! It is a custom order from Ray Lansburg (the blackacre) made with the cutoffs from my MBBs and an iron heart silver ring. It's a custom order, so you can't purchase it, but you can contact Ray about commissioning something.

Been lurking for a while here haven't posted much. Almost bought a few items in classified but have been too slow.
I have been eyeing a new wallet for a while. Mine is falling apart. Cheap bonded leather.
I had a wallet with a chain and wanted another as I lost my wallet many times before the chain. So it is not just because it looks cool. Looking cool is a bonus though.
Have found a few places to get this and similiar styles. Some discussion here and also found quite a bit on your message board. The Iron Heart midlength wallet is beautiful but out of my budget.
It was close between Leather Goods Connection and Don't Moan Organize Leather until I found an individual leather maker who had a style just like I wanted. Considered natural color but decided I wanted black with contrasting stitching with barbours linen thread. Hand waxed with beeswax. He had a few options of leather and after talking with him went with Herman Oak Bridle leather. I also considered Horween but it was more expensive and the Oak sounds like a great leather also. The brass D-ring is unique as I didn't see anyone else with this exact style.
The best part is the price is very reasonable. Only took a week to get also. I like the midlength as it all fits in your pocket only the D-ring sticking out. It also has the same measurements as my old trifold wallet. 5 1/4" by 3 5/8"
If anyone is looking for a wallet, I would highly recommend this craftsman. He makes a few styles and belts also.
Here is his Tumblr page. http://blackyrock.tumblr.com/
I can give his email also if anyone wants.
Let me know what you think.
