Glad you like your 01 :) I'd love to offer shell, but I don't have any shell. It's somewhat hard to order in small quantities, and generally involves a good amount of cash. I'm a small timer, but I will see what I can do...

would love to see a bifold

EDIT: Does anyone know if I had a wallet made in natural, would it develop a patina just from being in my pocket? Similar question about the belt - do the belt loops prevent the leather under then from aging, or the underside of the belt for that matter?

I have a bifold and trifold in the works. I might get them done before the holidays, depending on how busy I am...

In the meantime, I just added card case 06, which is 01, but vertical! Here's the one I made for myself.

Natural wallet darkens pretty quickly from handling (with your hands). If you never take it out of your pocket ...

Natural belts darken more gradually ... mainly from being handled ... the parts that you hold as you put it on and take it off will darken more quickly. No chance of getting a "belt loop tan" on your natural belt.

It's contact with oils/dirt that darkens the leather, not exposure to sunshine or air.
