Chains, Reins, Leashes, Wallets & Hooks

The idea is to have the same type of logo.  Not necessarily the same leather as the jeans patch, but the logo imprinted on the leather itself.  So that the entire side is logo'ed if that makes sense.

[Seul]

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense than what I was thinking about haha

That's gonna be amazing when the details are all ironed out.  I prefer the 2 slot one; it looks a bit shorter in the pic, and I think a card case should be smaller and less obtrusive.  If you want larger capacity, you buy a wallet, right?

[nixage]

Right!!!

[hanswong]

giles, i just wondering. do you still sell the brass chain or other chain? the leather lanyard doesnt look mean to me ^^.

[Giles]

Persoanally I would use nothing.  I may be able to get one of those chains for you, let me find out.  G

As Giles said, you don't really have to use anything, just wipe it off with a damp cloth and buff it up.
I have one as well and have treated it (once) with a product called Leather Groom.
It's foam based and you can't over apply it.
Dosen't colour the stitching either.

seriously, it wont dry the leather or tendon thread over the years of use.

I've used Leather Groom for ages and had no problems.
I read an article in a Classic Car magazine once that was about The National Leather Care Institute (or something like that) who said it was all that they used to restore all sorts of leather upholstery and they used it specifically because you couldn't over apply it.
According to them we all put too much stuff on our leather.
I think you can get it on Ebay, in the UK anyway.

I would use horse oil, works a charm on all mammalian and avian leathers!

The highest penetration rate of all natural oils, won't alter the leather colour - just a bit expensive though.

Cordovan is funny stuff, most of the 'Care of Shell Cordovan' info on the web say just buff it up, no products on it what so ever.
I do however use a TINY little bit of Saphir Renovateur very infrequently on my Shell Cordovan Boots with no ill affects.
