    Standard font is limited to capital letters only (max 2 of the same letter). The old style font is smaller, but more expansive allowing for upper and lower case letters as well as numbers and symbols.

    Initials will be stamped in the inner bottom right corner for folding items and in the front bottom right corner for non-folding items, unless specified otherwise. For items with the mini pocket addition, initials will be stamped in the center.

    Please note that foil show may premature wear compared to the rest of the item.

    Please select this option for any non-Latin characters, like Chinese, Arabic, etc. A standard font & size will be chosen. If you wish for more control over the look, please choose the custom image option instead.

    Please upload a vector file or black-and-white jpg. Highly complex images are not be possible. Clearly defined lines work best. Alternatively, feel free to email the image to sales@leatherbound.ink at a later date.

SKU: Categories: Wallets

Design & Capacity

  • 4 card pockets
  • 2 hidden pockets
  • Optional rear and mini pockets
  • Best suited for 4-10 cards
  • Super slim design is suitable for front pocket carry

The mini pocket is best used to store folded cash, small membership cards, tickets, etc.

    • This is the extra compact version of the vertical bifold — it’s a little shorter and narrower and has one less card pocket.

Construction

  • Hand sewn using the saddle stitch method
  • All edges are finely creased and polished to a smooth finish
  • Wallet body is lined with leather

I employ both burnishing and hand painting in my work. I will choose a suitable edge treatment depending on the leathers chosen. If you’d like a specific edge treatment, please add your request to the order notes.

Materials

  • World-class French, Italian, or Japanese leathers (according to above selection)
  • Polyester thread for superior abrasion resistance

Chèvre and Sherpa interiors are backed with reinforcement to prevent stretch and reduce bulk.

Dimensions

  • Height: 10.22cm (4.02″)
  • Length (when folded) 7cm (2.76″)
  • Thickness (at edge) ~0.76cm (.3″)

Thickness may vary slightly depending on leathers chosen.

Love the craftmanship on my new wallet

Ordered a minimalist vertical wallet and it was done in 4 weeks! The craftmanship on the wallet is absolutely perfect - not a single stitch is off and the painted edges are also flawless (how is this possible?). I ordered it with Camel Shinki Cordovans and the color compliments very well with natural Chevre if you like a conservative color combination.

Thanks again Silas for this awesome wallet =)

Custom Minimalist Bifold

Premium handmade product using top leather materials. This will be on par with any high-end leather product, but better because it will be one-of-a-kind. Silas will also work with you to ensure you have the right color combinations to maintain a premium aesthetic. I just put in an order for 2 more items.

Beautiful wallet

This is one of the most beautiful wallets I’ve ever seen. The leather is such high quality. The craftsmanship is unmatched. You can tell Silas takes his time on each piece and caressing about his work. Will have to get another one for my dad
