Wallets, Chains, and Reins

Here are a few more pics of my Faler Brand wallet in Horween Natural Essex leather. This leather is so awesome. I think it's fairly new to the leather world. It's cowhide that has been given the same treatment process as Shell Cordovan and it is AMAZING. These pics are after about a week of actually wearing my wallet. I've had it for around a month, I've just only had the opportunity to wear jeans for about a week, so that's why I'm saying these pics are after about a week of actually wearing. Sorry about the quality. All I have to use, camera wise, is my phone. I couldn't hold still enough on a couple of them but, you can still get the gist of what I'm trying to show. John Faler really has a gift.

Nice!

10 months in with the WC now, had the camera out, took some good snaps. It's really coming along!!!!
5 months, thought to snap a picture tonight;
My daily wallet, after 2 other wallets throughout the year, I've settled onto this for at least a year. Really like how it's progressing, now @ 3 months of daily usage;

Keeping with the "Wild Child" theme, here is mine. Around four years old.
I love the styling and layout of the simple bill-fold with credit card slots. I must admit to be hunting around for a similar size wallet with the same basic layout but thinner.
I find the Wild Child wallet can sometimes be a bit thick and cumbersome when getting it out of your front jeans pocket. I will wait for the "tight wallet" jokes now I have queued them up nicely.

In a few months I will have an awesome contribution to this thread.
The WC is nice, but to be honest I found the vertical slots pretty cumbersome…

I find them practical. I open my wallet to use the RFID reader for sydney trains and know I can wave the wallet about without worrying about if the cards will stay put or not.

What are you going after @grandmasterben ?

That Tush wallet looks super clean. Could I see some pics of the inside?

Since there's some Tush love going on, here's mine. It's horsehide with tendon stitching, and has a few months love. The lanyard is by North Sea Clothing.
@davito has the same internal layout in his wallet at mine does, and since @Anesthetist would ask…
It's a fantastic piece, but I find it a bit too big.

Interesting… I can see that, but question: has anyone ever had cards or bills fall out of their wallet?

As usual, something flat head…. A billfold that hits all the criteria for me. Something that is surprisingly hard, I haven't seen another wallet that does that.. Just gotta wait a few more months!

I love those studded TFH billfolds

In all honesty, I have wallets to last me for generations. However, those Tush wallets look really good. I am still waiting to see what my insurance will be doing next year but if I sell some stuff I might look into a Tush cardcase or long wallet. Thanks to Davito & Graeme for posting pics, both pieces are beyond excellent! Only question is where to cop? I think Nokipple used to have them, I will start there….

Yeah some of the $200 local brand wallets, as well as Ralph Lauren. Not sure either was due to just the slot direction, however, seeing the slots on the W&C a direction that makes it impossible gave warm and fuzz

I found some wallets by a Russian brand last night.
They're all hand made and sewn, and the prices are reasonable too.

Thank @Black Orchid I'm enjoying using it greatly. After a few mis-starts with other wallets (Red Moon / Kawatako), good to finally give something the effort it deserves.
