Work has been super hectic lately, but I was finally able to find some time to squeeze in another wallet project. This is one of my standards, a short "VEB" wallet - made to resemble the upper/shaft of a Vintage Engineer Boot. Japanese Wagyū Kobe Cowhide is my favorite to work with, so I made it a point to incorporate it into this project. This leather is unlike comparable American hide of the same weight in that it's not dense, which makes the wallet nice and surprisingly light.
This piece is made with (5) card slots, (2) bill/receipt slots and a gusseted coin slot.
