The stitch
Two needles, one thread.
Saddle stitching uses two needles through every hole, so if one thread ever wears, the other holds. A machine cannot do it. It takes an hour a wallet.

Reviews
A year in the pocket.
Darkened beautifully
Pale tan in January, deep honey by Christmas. It looks like mine now.
Owen, AdelaideThin
Six cards and it still sits flat in a front pocket. My last wallet was a brick.
James, MelbourneStamped initials
Free, and it arrived in two days. A gift he actually uses.
Priya, SydneyStiff at first
Two weeks and it loosened. Now perfect.

Questions
Questions.
Why does it change colour?
Vegetable tanning leaves the leather open to oils and sun. Your hands finish it.

Can I get initials?
Yes, stamped free, up to three letters.
What does repaired for life mean?
Any stitch, any edge, any time, free. Send it back with a note.
