Wallets, Chains, and Reins

[Anesthetist]

In all honesty, I have wallets to last me for generations. However, those Tush wallets look really good. I am still waiting to see what my insurance will be doing next year but if I sell some stuff I might look into a Tush cardcase or long wallet. Thanks to Davito & Graeme for posting pics, both pieces are beyond excellent! Only question is where to cop? I think Nokipple used to have them, I will start there….

@grandmasterben:

Interesting… I can see that, but question: has anyone ever had cards or bills fall out of their wallet?

Yeah some of the $200 local brand wallets, as well as Ralph Lauren. Not sure either was due to just the slot direction, however, seeing the slots on the W&C a direction that makes it impossible gave warm and fuzz

I found some wallets by a Russian brand last night.

They're all hand made and sewn, and the prices are reasonable too.

@Snowy:

@Snowy:

@Snowy:

My daily wallet, after 2 other wallets throughout the year, I've settled onto this for at least a year. Really like how it's progressing, now @ 3 months of daily usage;

Thank @Black Orchid I'm enjoying using it greatly. After a few mis-starts with other wallets (Red Moon / Kawatako), good to finally give something the effort it deserves.

@Cutlasshound it's not thin mate. After 19 months it's just starting to settle down, but it'll never be a thin wallet. If jeans have small pockets, I still have trouble getting the wallet in and out. I keep minimal cash in there, but do keep about 9 cards in the 6 slots so it could be a little thinner, but it's never going to be skinny.

Snowy your WC is coming along very well, have you treated it at all?
I've been using mine for a few months now, but have yet to treat it. Really love the wallet so far.

[Snowy]

@Broark the inside is untreated. Outside has had ~2 light coats of Buzz Rickson's leather conditioner, 1 light coat of FH cordovan wax.

i'm not a wallet kinda guy, but now i need this beauty! @Snowy thanks …

[Broark]

I've been trying to wait as long as possible to not treat mine, after seeing Kiya's untreated one in person awhile ago I might just go that route.
But yours looks great @Snowy!

[Snowy]

@Broark I too held out but it needed it. It was getting dry. I live a different lifestyle from Kiya, so am treating it uniquely to my life. It doesn't need tons of oils, just a sprinkle here and there.

I look forward to seeing how yours evolves ::).

@finn666, pleasure

[Broark]

@Snowy Valid point, everyone's got their own approach!
I might try an get some pictures of mine up sometime soon, the leather inside is still very light.
Realized I'm coming up on about 6 months of use.
It's a beast of a wallet, but it's become one of my favorite things that I own.

Hello IH family, i need your help. I search a new wallet:

-mid wallet, bifold, trifold if possible with 925 sterling silver détails, and semi precious stones détails ( turquoise, lapis lazuli or amethyst. Natural leather, and non rain ( il want the ih w6 on this)

Thanks for your advices,

Simon

Sterling silver, shell cordovan outer with natural calf inner, tendon construction, and the perfect size for a rein. This is an heirloom quality good, hard to find better. I guess you could always bedazzle it, but I'd lose the gems IMO.

[Graeme]

These wallets are by Felix Comploj. I don't know how to get in touch with him, but he does have an Instagram stream. The one at the bottom left strikes me as what you're looking for @Simoon.

I don't know if it has been posted before, can somebody tell he what keyhook this is?


I saw one like that in a small shop earlier this month and been hitting myself over the head ever since because I didn't buy it.
