Almost perfect!
Color: With Coin Pocket - Forest Brown
I purchased this wallet primarily for its generous number of conveniently located slots and its coin pocket. If you can't fit everything you want to EDC in this wallet, you need to think about getting a sling bag! Having returned the same model in Grizzily Brown due to a stitching defect and ordered this one in Forest Brown, I can see it is a richer, lighter shade and the finish seems smoother and more refined. Some of my cards were tight in previous wallet slots, but everything fits great in this one. Why the one star off? First, this wallet is about a quarter inch too large in all dimensions, especially thickness. While it doesn't protrude out the top of my back pocket, it is a challenge to close the button on some pants and it is also snug side-to-side, so removal involves some wiggling until pockets stretch and the wallet breaks in. The leather used in its construction is smooth but stiff at first, given that it is about twice as thick as most American or European wallet leather I've owned: think bullhide. The smell is also a little off, definitely natural cowhide but processed with whatever is used to tan leather in India rather than in the United States. Finally, this looks like something that belongs in a pair of jeans or casual pants, NOT pulled out of a suit at a Michelin star restaurant. The stitching, evenness of dye and lines are far from perfect, but what it lacks in looks it more than makes up for in every day function, character, and anticipated durability.
