Wallets, Chains, and Reins

[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

@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.

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.

Thanks! This could be the one in the picture.

Now that I think of it: the one that I found had a screw-on spiral to make sure the bottom loop stayed in place. So it's not exactly the same as in the picture. I'm gonna try and find the Phone number of the shop and see if they can point me in the right direction.

Or you could just PM @crisone

I just ordered a biker style wallet, in natural steerhide, from Japan – made by Dalee's. It comes with a braided leather wallet chain.

So far

Anyone have experience with Funny Co.?  Specifically their Rider's wallets?  I'm thinking about picking one up but I'm not too sure about the size.  I've been carrying a small Billkirk card case for a few years now so going to a full size wallet could be quite a change…..  Not to mention I've never worn a wallet chain before (I suppose I don't necessarily have to wear the chain).

They look super nice. Panchoandlefty.se has em too.

[BloodnThunder]

Yep.  Really like that they have different conchos available too in case you want to pimp your wallet.  Biggest concern is the size though.  I wear my jeans on the slimmer side so the wallet could be awkward.

I typically use a cardholder or slim wallet. I bought a trucker wallet and it was beautiful. However the size was just too damned big for me! If i were you i would buy a cheaper one first and see if it works for you.

Thanks @Cutlasshound.  By the end of yesterday I had done a pretty good job of talking myself out of it.  The wallets really are a work of art but I don't think I would enjoy carrying something of that size.

On a positive note….  I guess it means I have some extra cash for when the IH fall/winter stuff hits.

[Cutlasshound]

Sounds like a sensible choice sir!!

gave them a good clean today. current wallet..

@BloodnThunder I've got a Tush wallet, which is pretty chunky. I've been using it for a year or so, and not entirely settled with it.

I'd be tempted to downsize to something like a Corter Card Wallet, and then get something larger like the Travel Wallet that could hold my passport and less frequently used cards.
