URA-02 - Mini Wallet

[madmonday]

hate to say it, but i actually agree with you.  great pick-up Anest.  wonder if that blue is going to give way to tan/ brown?

@Anesthetist:

I have 4 IH wallets and my first one  to come with a lucky 5 yen piece. Very cool!

I have one that now resides on my keychain with a brass IH dog tag. It sounds like there's a story here? Is the bullion not par for the course?

That royal blue… Lost for words. Going to get that next week

The only thing is that there's a kind of weird odor that resonates with the leather, kind of like a fish smell. I read that this is common with leather especially during the treatment process, but I just stuck a piece of fabric softener inside of it, so now it smells like flowers and fish :'(. Hopefully the smell will go away soon.. idk if anyone else has this scent on them!

[Anesthetist]

Pretty sure it's the waterproofing. My older Kawatako had the same smell as does my URA-02. Don't sweat it, it's a great wallet!

It'll be the tanning process.  If you do not like a fishy smell, do not buy an Iron Heart/Alexander Leathers Deerskin shirt, part of the tanning process actually uses cod liver oil….And boy, does it stink....

[PattyCakez]

Haha no smell could take me away from this wallet!! But it seems to have either died down since yesterday or I have grown used to/fond of the scent. Maybe I'll take a look into that shirt Giles, just for the smell haha

Can't wait to see how the red ages. So excited for this wallet. It bigger than I expected a mini wallet to be. It's hard to capture the color.

[Anesthetist]

Cool idea with the ring. Did you do it yourself?

[PattyCakez]

Thanks! No, i actually brought it into a local leather shop and he provided the Italian gold ring for me at a really low price with installation.. Beyond pleased

Keeping this one as my summer wallet due to the water resistance. Really a great piece!

Loving the updates @PattyCakez

[PattyCakez]

Some decent photos of my URA-02.. worn & used daily for 2 years now. Travelled with me all around the world :).. Love this to death but sadly might consider retiring this sometime in the near future.. Maybe the IHG-01 in Oxblood next?

[Cutlasshound]

Looks great! Didnt realise they came with the bit to attach a wallet chain!

They didn't, I think it was an @PattyCakez after market mod….
