Fade of the Day – Corter Leather Standard Card Wallet (2 Years)

Today’s Fade focuses on patina-gain instead of indigo loss on a Corter Leather Standard Card Wallet. Heddels reader Will J. found out about Corter Leather right here on Heddels and has been using this handmade wallet as his everyday carry for the last two years.

The wear has lead the wallet to develop some heavy patination that creates amazing contrasts in color. The leather appears to be extremely supple and has conformed nicely to the rigors of daily use. Will also treats the wallet with mink oil on a regularly basis, which is no doubt helping to develop those rich tones and will keep it evolving for many years to come.
