OK guy, this is my first post. Hopefully it gets posted quickly. Well what better place to ask this question than this thread. I have a $300 budget for a 100% horween cordovan wallet. I was thinking about ordering one from Coronado leather. They have one under their horween collection. Just wondering if any one has any of other products. Or any suggestion, thanks. Johnny

I always suggest Ashland Leather: http://ashlandleather.bigcartel.com

Phil of Ashland recently gave me a tour of Horween - what a class act.

Thanks Patrick, I've been on other site. I like the (johnny the fox) model. But the interior is not shell cordovan (I think) and the Harvey is a little to big. Have you delt or herd of Coronado leather??

Picked up one of these:
http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/titaya/item/np059_06/

Was a bit hesititant about quality of the leather and weather it was real Cordovan, however for the price and from the photos I figured it was worth a punt.
Beatiful workmanship and for $135 delivered it is a bargain compared to the inflated, wanker-prestige, prices being charged for Whoreween.

Namor,

That is not made by me, I comissioned it. I supplied the Cordovan and design.
Just the cordovan itself cost about USD200, not including the labour.

Pics on the site are better, however this shows you that the wallet looks good in real life.

Quality is great for the price:
