            Mine arrived today and it's perfect. Nice that it came with a Japanese coin.

              Absolutely love this wallet and look forward to the evo in the not-so-distant future. I love the colors throughout it, the subtle richness is a joy to gaze upon. I just need to find a new leather wallet cord. Anyone know of there is a maker or retailer out there that makes shell cordovan wallet cords?

                @Oaktavia hello my friend, usually they don't use Shell Cordovan leather for the lanyards (it's a very expensive part of the horse both if tanned by Horween and Shinky Hikaku). A much cheaper and more flexible vegetable tanned cowhide is used. But some time ago I discovered a Swedish craftsman, Lone Wolf, who uses Shell Cordovan for his wallets, maybe you can ask him if he can also use it for some lanyards, I'll let you know as soon as he replies if it's ok for you.

                  @Luijim78 oh wow his braided cords are the best I've seen I'll need to pick one of these up once I catch up on some bills. Thanks homie! New to the forum and already helping a lot.

                          @Oaktavia such a great looking wallet. I want it bad. It’s going on my Christmas list.

                              @Oaktavia natural for sure! Would the card slots fit more than one per slot? Could you put two cards together and fit in one slot? Just thinking I have more than four cards I need to carry.

                                @deanclean natural is the best imo. 20230930_171015.jpg

                                And yes I can fit two cards in each slot. Takes a bit of stretching but the slots mold around the cards

                                  Looks like my Cordovan is coming apart on the edges.  😢
                                  It’s been my my constant back pocket companion for just under two years.
                                  Hell, its got 21 ounces of warp permanently embossed into the leather!  😉

                                  Any idea on how to stop this tearing from spreading?

                                  When considering purchasing such a wallet, this scares me. How did this end with any warranty and I am especially curious how this is possible. Can a layer of full Cordovan be scraped off as if it were a film layer?

                                    We replaced the wallet, flagged the issue to the leather maker and they have taken steps to prevent it happening on future hides.

                                      @Alex That is reassuring, but do you know how this is possible? There is normally no film layer over Shinki Hikaku Cordovan, is there?

                                        I am not sure what caused the issue, I am afraid

                                          @Rick62 I don't think it's leather from the Shinki Hikaku tannery, it should be Toghigi if I'm not mistaken
