Looking for honest feedback on these two finishes—same Badalassi Carlo Pueblo veg tan, same wallet pattern, but two different looks. One was finished inside and out with Tokonole, and the color bands are different on purpose. Which finish do you prefer, and what stands out to you most
These are prototype slim stick-on phone wallets I’ve been testing for a more minimal EDC setup. They’re handmade and hand saddle stitched using 3oz full-grain Badalassi Carlo Italian leather, and the goal was to keep them thin enough for everyday carry while still comfortably holding 2 cards.
I’ve been experimenting with different leather combinations and finishes to compare durability, patina, and how well they age over time. The camo versions especially turned out better than expected.
I’d love to hear which leather combo people think looks best, and any thoughts on what makes a stick-on wallet actually useful versus just novelty.
Trying out some new leather combinations for slim phone wallets. Handmade, saddle stitched, and built for 2-card carry. Curious which one r/Wallets likes best.
Been working on a slimmer everyday carry and came up with this. Veg-tanned leather, hand-stitched, with a simple snap flap to keep everything secure.
The back is a quick-access slot, and there’s a pocket inside for cards/cash. I kept the design minimal but added the two-tone look (black + yellow ) for a bit of contrast.
I’m pretty happy with how clean it came out.
Would you carry something like this or prefer a more traditional bifold?
