Faler Brand, Leather Goods Handmade In Ohio

For standard E they are too heavy and I prefer Gibson M picks with cut surface for a better grip
I paid 325USD (+ customs, I am from Germany) for the Cordovan (Horween) exterior, thats pretty fair IMO.

Faler's stuff is hard to beat.  100% of what you pay is going to support one guy doing his thing.

Here's my Faler Brand mid wallet made by John Faler.  I love this damn wallet.  It's made with Horween's natural Essex leather.  It's basically hide from a cow that goes through the same tanning process as their shell cordovan goes through.  As it evolves, it looks a lot like shell to me.  I love this leather and John is as good as it gets when it comes to making things out of leather.  In my opinion, John Faler, Ray from blackacre, and Nicholas from Hollows are the 3 best.  The guy that makes the stuff for Angelos is really good too.  Their stitching and edge burnishing and just all the details period are what sets these guys apart from the rest.  This is my opinion so I'm sorry if this pisses anyone off.  Here are some pics of my wallet:

Nice wallet! It does indeed look just like shell cordovan. Will be interested to see how it wears.
