Decent minimalist wallet
I ordered this wallet out of curiosity to find out what kind of handmade wallet you get for the $25 (apparently I got it just after a price increase from about $20). Having it in hand I would say it’s worth what I paid.<br /><br />It’s described as full grain veg-tanned leather. While I can’t tell what kind of leather it is, as it’s not leather from some popular tanneries for handmade leather goods such as Horween or Walpier, it does smell like real leather and seems to be of decent quality. It is pretty soft and have a nubuck type finish on the exterior. There is no burnishing on any of the edges, and at this price and for the soft leather I wouldn’t expect that.<br /><br />The stitching is actual hand saddle stitching and look very robust and should last a long time.<br /><br />The wallet is about 3 inches wide and because the rear has a folded over open flap, it can accommodate half folded bills, which is different from most of the wallets in this style that requires bills to be folded twice. So that is a nice feature.<br /><br />The card capacity is around 6 in the main compartment and 1-2 in the front compartment. You can stuff more cards in but unless you’re committed to carrying that amount of cards I would stay with 7 cards max so the wallet doesn’t stretch too much.  As mentioned it is pretty soft leather so it’ll probably stretch easily.<br /><br />Overall it is a functional wallet and a good enough value at $25. If I got it at the $20 or less price, I’d probably give it 5 stars.  If you want a no-frills minimalist wallet at a low price, I think this should work well.
