About leather long wallets
Long wallets are full-length and hold notes flat, with rows of card slots and a zip or snap closure.
Wallets and small leather goods are compact products where stitching, edges and tolerances show most clearly.
Buyers who commonly request this style include fashion brands, corporate gift buyers, retailers and hospitality groups.
Design and fit
These are the decisions that define leather long wallets and are settled at briefing and sampling.
- Length for the note size of your market
- Card slots and zip pocket
- Closure type
Provide exact external size and internal layout, including card slot count and note or coin capacity. A reference item speeds development.
Materials
Small goods use thin, fine-grained leathers so layers stack neatly. Vegetable-tanned leather suits burnished, patina-forming pieces. Goatskin gives fine grain and strength for its weight.
- Full-Grain LeatherThe outer layer of the hide with its natural grain intact and unsanded.
- Vegetable-Tanned LeatherLeather tanned with plant tannins: firm, workable, and darkening with age.
- GoatskinStrong, lightweight leather with a distinctive pebbled grain.
- Top-Grain LeatherThe outer layer of the hide, lightly sanded and usually finished for a more even surface.
- CowhideThick, durable leather from cattle, used across bags, belts, jackets and wallets.
Which of these are available for your project is confirmed at quotation. See all materials on the materials pages.
