We've been making simple wallets for ourselves for a while now. They started out as two pieces of leather or denim sewn together, and have evolved over time.
Now we're making them for you. We start out with US steer 4oz natural vegetable tanned full grain leather. We love this leather because it starts a light tan, but will age into a dark brown (and even pick up some of the indigo from your denim) as you use it. The edges are burnished with beeswax, and we use wax-coated thread to stitch the wallet. It's finished off with a Gustin stamp in the lower right-hand corner. The simple wallet has two slots (one on either side), and holds about 6-8 cards.
This kind of quality cardholder usually retails for $55-95. If we had to sell at retail and guess which style you wanted, we would be stuck doing the same. Fortunately we’re not, and that means you get a top quality product for a radical price.
"They arrived. And they are really special. I wore them all day yesterday and they were amazing. Now that I know how your stuff fits on my body, I can have a little more confidence ordering in the future. You have beautiful stuff."
