The leather used for this wallet is gorgeous and it will wear beautifully (it also smells amazing if leather scent is your thing)! I needed a wallet that holds my essentials in my pocket while at work, not bulky yet holds a decent amount, and tough because I'm rough on wallets. Joseph did an amazing job! It meets all these requirements AND I was able to pick my colors. He even helped me pick other leather and stitching colors to compliment my beloved purple leather! No basic colors for me (but if that's your thing, he's got lovely choices for those too)! I'm so pleased with this product, I'm already planning the next one (6.25 or K for my keyring). Looking forward to enjoying this handmade piece (and the next one) for a very long time!
