IHG-035-TAN - Calf Folding Wallet - Tan
-
Here are some comparison photos between the WC wallet and the IH-FW as requested ( sorry they are a little dark). The FW is much more manageable, especially if you don't wear jeans everyday.

^Great post, need more of these! I've owned both and never realized how much larger the wild child was!
-
Anesthetist, thanks for posting these pictures. Very informative. It looks like the double section of leather across the folding spine of the Wild Child wallet is where the major difference in thickness is generated.
I am looking to replace my wild Child Wallet with something slimmer and the FW looks a good option.
I also have my eye on the IH-SW in Cordovan Oxblood. Similar size to the FW but I am not sure how much use I would get out of coin pouch. I am a creature of habit and have never used a wallet with a coin pouch, so I am concerned that the coin pouch would be a redundant feature for me at least.

Have you considered the cordovan card holder? It is a little less expensive and has even better leather (IMO), but is smaller. I've carried a similar wallet with a money clip in the past and found it very convenient. In fact, the IH cordovan piece is high on my list ATM.
-
Anesthestist, some good suggestions thanks, will definitely give them some thought.
Using the cordovan card holder teamed up with money clip, would the money clip sit inside the card holder loose or would you try to secure the money clip onto the card holder?
Excuse my naivety here but I have not played round with wallet types or set ups, hence the basic questions.

I usually just keep my clipped cash in my left front pocket. I love money clips and have about 12! My current users are from William Henry and Louis Vuitton.

@bertoni pm @clintdear he has a natural that he will move.
-
No I'm sorry it's @elclintor

Noticed there's no pictures of the black so I thought I'd upload a few of my new one. Giles, any idea why there's creases along the wallet? Is this normal?

@sam when you have a moment, could you fix please…

I can't see them on the screen of the device I am using at the moment, sorry…
-
Are you referring to the marks at the center of my screen shot? I'm not answering for G, but that looks to me like it is just part of the leather. All natural materials (and cows) have slight variations that are make each unique.
-
Thanks @Anesthetist . Yes looks just like some natural creasing in the leather….
-
Cool thanks for the info Giles and everyone.

How well does the wallet hold up Euro's? Says the wallet is 90mm tall and from what I can tell the tallet Euro banknote is at 82mm.
Grail wallet for me.
