A modern wallet designed to meet modern carry needs. 

Most people today carry cards more frequently than cash. Minimalist wallets are all the rage but for some people, myself included, it felt like they were trying to get away with doing too little. I needed to carry about 6 cards, sometimes as many as 8, and once in a while I'd end up with some cash to tote around as well. Those little wallets didn't cut it for me, so I designed this.

I consider this my most versatile wallet design and most people will probably find that it accommodates their carry needs. 

Its default configuration comes with four vertical card slots which will easily stow 6 cards from the start if you double stack one or two. Behind each bank of card slots is a hidden slot which is large enough to hold business cards or US denominations folded in half. This is ideal for the person who doesn't really need cash that frequently but still likes to keep a $20 on them at all times, just for emergencies.

Alternatively, you can choose to have one (or both) sides done with angled organizer slots. These will hold papers, bills, or more cards and are useful if you like to visually sort your wallet contents.

If cash is something you like to have a dedicated place for, these can also be made with an optional external billfold which truly maximizes their versatility. Due to the small size of this wallet, bills must still be folded in half to fit in the external compartment.

All of this capacity measures in at roughly 3" x 4" when folded, making this ideal for a front pocket wallet in any configuration. 

For these wallets, I use Italian ‘Buttero’ (meaning Cowboy) vegetable tanned leather from Conceria Walpier tannery in Tuscany. Buttero is prized for its rich depth of color, smooth consistent grain finish and patina development over time and use. This is a leather that will visibly tell your story as it ages.

On average, it takes me 5-6 weeks to complete an order. I always say that every wallet takes its own amount of time, so that timeframe can be shorter or longer depending on how my queue stands.
