I LOVED the leather texture of this 1950's wallet. The leather is of such a fine quality that it completely makes sense that gloves thereafter would be at least twice as thick! I love that this turned our thinner than most of my other wallets and how smooth the natural finish of the leather feels. Hope one lucky customers enjoys it as well!
