- Process -

-These passport covers are completely handcrafted by myself here in S. E. Alaska. I make sure to pay close attention to detail to make sure each and every one of my products our of the highest quality. I use an Industrial leather sewing machine with size 92 nylon thread for strength and durability. I burnish the edges in a three stage process. First I use water to lay the fibers down in the same direction. Second I use a eco-wise, water based product for slicking the edges called Gum Tragacanth. I finish the edges with beeswax which really seals the fibers in and gives a really nice natural edge, opposed to using a synthetic edge coat.

- About The Leather -

-The leather I use is from an amazing company called Wickett and Craig, based in PA. One of just two remaining vegetable tanneries in the U.S., Wickett & Craig has mastered the art of leather making.

-Vegetable tanned leather is a natural process of tanning leather that is eco-friendly.

-This passport cover is specifically made from tan English bridle leather.

-English Bridle is a traditional leather with a variety of uses, from classic equestrian gear to high-end leather goods order. Drum dyed and hot stuffed, English Bridle is smooth, flexible yet durable.

-This leather will last a very long time and get more character and beauty with age. Over time the oils from your hands and being in your pockets will give this leather an amazing patina and beautiful glaze finish. Over time the wallet will perfectly form to your cards and belongings.

- Leather Care Tips -

-Assemble your leather care conditioning product of choice, two clean dry rags, and your clean dry leather product.

-Rub a coat of conditioning treatment into your product lightly using a clean dry rag. Even if it has been a while, use a light coat. Heavy coats of oil can impede breathability and encourage mildew growth.

-Buff dry with second rag.

-You can do this many times as you like, even allowing treatment to soak in before buffing dry.
