No.87 Horween & Badalassi Carlo
The No.87 is a more traditional billfold wallet, designed with a horizontal pocket layout, providing 4 card slots, 2 inner pockets and a large billfold pocket. The wallet can accommodate most currencies, though some taller notes, such as the higher denomination Euros, will need to be folded once. This particular No.87 is made with a combination of leathers: Horween’s Shell Cordovan and Badalassi Carlo’s Minerva.
Taking up to 6 months to make, Genuine Horween Shell Cordovan is a pure, vegetable-tanned leather, rich in oils and waxes, with a smooth, glazed surface. The recipe has not changed since 1905 and is still made by the Horween family’s 5th generation tanners. Shell Cordovan has a unique set of properties when compared to other types of leather. It is resistant to creasing and is made from a dense fibre structure, a membrane found in the hind quarters of equine species.
Badalassi Carlo’s Minerva is also a pure, vegetable tannage that is aniline-dyed in a barrel and finished with a smooth surface.
Please bare in mind that leather with stretch once broken in but it will not contract back. I recommend storing up to 6 cards to begin with, and up to 12 in total.
