Snap Bifold Wallet, Black Basketweave | Prototype

$75.00

Built as an homage to one of my favorite leathercrafters, the Snap Bifold Wallet is a modified pattern by Corter Leather that I’m offering in a variety of configurations. The wallet is constructed of natural, undyed, vegetable tanned tooling leather, hand-stitched with Ritza Tiger thread, premium nickel-on-brass snaps from Buckleguy. This configuration has 3 + 3 inward-facing card slots, and a single bill slot.

This is a prototype item, because the black dye I used didn’t come out as nice as I hoped it would. There are some natural oils in the leather that cause a mild rainbow hue to appear on the inside pockets in certain light, and the color isn’t as uniform as I would like. Over time, the color will even out as the leather breaks in.

The above mentioned defects will impact the durability or usability of this item.

What is a prototype item?

Prototype Items are the first drafts of our craft — early versions of our signature leather goods, created in the process of refining and perfecting our skills and techniques. Prototype items may show slight cosmetic imperfections, but are fully functional and made from the same premium materials as our finished products. Offered at a reduced price, Prototype Items are a unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted leather piece at exceptional value.
