IHG-02 - Medium Cordovan Wallet - Black, Ox Blood & Natural

Wow…got my hands on one of these wallets and it is insane!!! It's so big and thick
it's a lot in my pocket compared to my previous wallet. I've read through this entire thread as I was waiting for mine to arrive and it has lived up to expectations. @neph93 @Anesthetist your posts stood out to me the most. How are you wallets going?Not sure about the giant brass IH chain I think I'm in the market for a black wallet cord now.

I rotate mine with my IHG-035. I’ll get some pics next time I see it. I’ve done some more mods, removing the silver o-ring and loop it was attached to, and replacing the brass swivel hook I’d installed with a brass shackle.
I really dig the IH brass chains, but they are a statement for sure. I have a calfskin wallet leash (also IH but extinct), on mine now.

Would love to see pics! I'm still in the fence with the brass…I wore it here and there with my previous wallet and got pretty used to it. But I'm thinking something more subtle either way.

@Filthy has the black braided IH one, which is the same as my tan. They are pretty awesome. You could try and track one down.

Anyone out there wearing this daily? I have been wearing mine for the past few days and definitely feel it's thickness on my cheek after sitting for a while.
Does the wallet mold to your behind?
Did any of you just get used to it after a while?
It is a unit for sure. It does mould to you but it will always be about an inch thick. And you do get used to it.

Is there a way or a product I can use to remove the white coating (or whatever it is?) from the black leather on my wallet? I've only tried warm soapy water so far.

After I posted this question I looked online to find how to treat what I think was white powdered mold of some kind eveywhere inside my wallet. Most solutions suggested white vinegar, dish soap, baking soda and warm water and buffing the leather with a microfiber towel. With some elbow grease, I thought I removed it. Used Saphir leather conditioner afterwards.
It keeps coming back though, evey few weeks. I don't see as much of it but it's enough to notice. Does anyone know how to prevent it from happening?

Is it only on the inside calf leather?
You could try the saphir leather cleaner , it’s mild and not aggressive to the leather. -
@ARNC I was thinking this might be the case actually...I'll try brushing when/if it returns.
@Daniel-San I'll try this too thanks for the idea and yes it's only on the calf inside leather. The shell is not showing anything but normal wear and tear.
