The Purefold is the vertical one of our two minimalist wallets. It folds once along the short side, so cards sit upright and slide out from the top, and it is narrow enough to sit in a front pocket or a shirt pocket without printing through. It holds a few cards and a folded note, which is exactly what it should hold. This is the brown version.

How it is made

Cut from 100% full grain cow leather with a crazy horse finish, skived by hand at the fold so it closes flat, lined in calf, and closed with a saddle stitch in waxed linen thread. Two needles through every hole: a saddle stitch holds even if one thread wears through, which is why it is the construction used on the leather goods that last.

What goes in it

Three to five cards and a folded note or two. If you want the same idea laid out horizontally, the Maverick is the other minimalist. If you carry more than five cards, the Regal or Kingsmann bifold is the next size up. The folds are compared in bifold vs trifold vs minimalist.

What it does with wear

The brown crazy horse surface darkens where you grip it and lightens at the fold and corners, and because a minimalist wallet is handled every time you pay, the Purefold shows its patina within weeks. Scratches in the wax rub out with a thumb. Wipe it dry monthly and condition it twice a year; see the leather care guide.
