IHG-035-TAN - Calf Folding Wallet - Tan

[crankyfart]

@bagley920:

I think it takes the moisture out if that makes any sense, might make it smell better though

you mean the "lime treatment" takes the moisture out?

anyway after the treatment, my wallet feels less "slippery smooth" but more "tender dry soft kinda smooth". other than the initial looks better, i'm actually loving the feeling of the wallet after the cleaning. can't stop touching it now.

probably made it a tastier wallet…... drums pls

[trapp]

Before and after both look good.

thanks guys. this wallet is the best wallet i've laid my hands on. own a bottega veneta 8 card slots bi-fold wallet before this and trust me, this wallet is built like a tank as compared to those over-priced bullshit that I paid in the past. my bottega wallet failed on me within the first 4 months of usage then i had to spend, if i remember correctly, SGD50 to repair that crap and the same shit happened not long after. used it for 3 years, repaired for 8 times. come to think of i felt stupid paying SGD620 for it..

now i don't give a damn even if people think i'm using some cheap-ass wallet cos at least i know my wallet ain't falling apart no more…..

I love my valise (IH-MW) but realize that carrying luggage in one's back pocket isn't everyone's cup of tea

been thrashing this beast since July 2012. it's been badly stained with indigo because of my chopped 634S. tried cleaning it but it's still very dark and dirty. still, it's the best wallet i've ever laid hands on.

another pic to tempt all those who is still on the fence for this beast.

…and yet I still pine for this folding calf wallet, though I will never need another wallet unless a mugger gets mine.  The mark of outstanding design and craftsmanship I suppose!

just realise this wallet can't keep £50 bills.

[Seul]

Don't worry - send your 50 quid notes to me, and I wil replace them with 5 £ notes that WILL fit!..

Yeah, I had the same problem with my wallet (not IH-FW). A standard billfold has a depth (or width) of 3.5". That depth can't hold larger denomination Euros, Yuan, etc. So to solve this, I got a custom wallet maker to construct a very similar folding wallet in reddish brown and tan but make it 3.75" deep. It's just enough clearance to keep the tops of your bills from getting all beat up.
