The leather we have selected has been chosen for its strength & durability but also for its natural full grain look. The veg-tanning process allows the full character of the leather to be exposed, honestly displaying the patina accumulated over a lifetime already lived. In its second lifetime as a Loyal wallet, it will darken slightly & develop more character. This heavy stiff leather has the substance to protect your cargo & maintains its shape.
