A wrap around design that features space for up to 8 cards and some folded bills. The slimline profile is designed to slip into your front pocket so you can ditch your receipt-filled back pocket behemoth.

This special one-off edition is crafted with the most expensive, most luxurious leather in the world; Shell Cordovan. This specific Shell Cordovan is colour marbled #8 from the world famous Horween tannery in Chicago.

It's so expensive for 3 reasons. It's only from one part of the horse, takes over 12 months to be produced and the end result is a dense, lustrous leather.

Whitstable Craft Co only get a small amount of Shell Cordovan each year, because of the price and limited supply. So if you'd like the best of the best, this card holder is for you.

It's your lucky day for if you're looking for a Shell Cordovan wallet at a steal, because in the production process, this one picked up a small mark on the front (although it will be covered by the card you put in the front pocket). So we've discounted it.

  • The craftsman's guarantee

    We really hope you'll never have to buy one of our wallets again. If anything goes wrong with the one you buy, we'll fix it or send you a brand new one.

Do you really hand stitch?

Yeah, it's stitched by hand.

Saddle stitching is pretty cool. It's a process where you have two alternate threads crossing through the leather, making it more or less unbreakable. 0.65mm polyester thread is used in each wallet, which is about 3x the thickness you might usually see in a wallet.

A worthy upgrade

Take a look through your wallet. How many cards do you carry with you every day that you never use? It's looking a bit, errm, tatty too, isn't it? Drop the cards you don't use and pick up a wallet that is only going to look better the more you use it.
