Vegetable Tanned Leather
Slade Classic Full Grain Leather Wallet - Cognac
$100.00 USD
The Slade Classic does one thing and does it well — it carries everything you actually need, flat in your pocket, without ever making you feel it.
It starts with the leather. We cut each wallet from full grain vegetable-tanned leather — the top layer of the hide, surface untouched, tanned slowly with plant extracts instead of chemicals. Fresh from the workshop it feels structured and firm. That's intentional. Vegetable-tanned leather is leather in its most honest form, and it needs a few weeks of daily carry to loosen up and start becoming yours.
Inside, three compartments keep cards and cash sorted without adding bulk. The easy-access back pocket puts your most-used card within reach — no need to open the wallet at the register. Unfolded bills slide under the front flap and stay flat: no folding, no fumbling, no creased corners.
Every seam is stitched by hand in our Istanbul workshop. Hand stitching takes longer than a machine ever would, but the result doesn't unravel — if a single stitch wears through decades from now, the rest hold their ground.

Then there's the part we can't manufacture: time. With every month of use, the leather darkens, softens, and takes on the exact shape of your pocket and your habits. Scuffs burnish into shine. No two Slade Classics age the same way — and that's the point.
A bifold wallet you buy once, break in slowly, and carry for decades. If anything about it fails you, our lifetime warranty has your back.

Kraft box, linen pouch, hand-tied twine, wax seal. Packaged by hand the same care that goes into the leather goes into the box.
