Black Horween Shell Cordovan Minimalist Wallet

This listing is for a single rare Horween black shell cordovan wallet. These are minimalist wallets with three pockets, each capable of holding multiple cards. Expect these wallets to comfortably fit eight to ten cards, in addition to a small amount of folded cash. The edges are uniquely finished by hand with a leather stain and sealed by applying a hand-made wax blend after sanding and burnishing. The thread used to hand sew these wallets is a durable waxed red .8mm poly-braid thread. I apply the small crease near the edge by hand with a heated creasing iron. This gives the wallet a more refined appearance.

Shell cordovan is a rare and sought-after leather, and this particular shell is from the world-famous Horween tannery in Chicago, Illinois. Often shoes made from shell cordovan will need to be resoled many times before the shell wears out and, for that reason, makes a highly durable wallet.

This shell has an exceptional shine that gives it class and elegance.

The materials used to make this wallet are of the highest quality and very difficult to obtain for a single artisan. I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to purchase a batch of Horween shell cordovan but I may not be as fortunate in the future. Unfortunately, this means that I may not be able to reproduce this wallet moving forward and that once these are sold out, there is no guarantee I can make any more.

Only the wallet pictured is included.
