    Please enter quoted customization cost.

    *Thread

    Matching thread to the lighter colored leather is generally recommended. For exotics, it's suggested to match the exterior. Note: As item is hand-sewn, thread color will be the same on both exterior and interior.

    Don't see the thread color you're looking for? Please select "Maker's Choice" and let me know in the order notes what color you'd like.

    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.

    Please note the following:

    • 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 of said pocket
    • Personalization without foil may be very subtle on textured leathers, especially Sherpa & Epsom.
    • Foil may show premature wear compared with the rest of the item as it ages

    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.

Best in class!

This is one of many custom wallets and cardholders that Silas has made for me. Like all the others it did not disappoint! I doubt there is anything he can’t do, just ask. In addition to his leather skills he is an excellent communicator and a true pleasure to do business with. If a one of a kind leather piece is what you want, Leatherbound will deliver every time! You will not be disappointed!
