More About The Armando Wallet
The Armando is a replica of a menโs leather wallet carried by my clientโs grandfather in the late 1920โs.
In making this replica, I strived to capture the original look and feel of the original leather wallet (pictured above). It is sized to the exact measurements of the original and is made entirely of calf-skin.
It is entirely handmade.
- I hand-select the calf-skin.
- The calf-skin is marked by hand,
- cut by hand,
- chiseled by hand,
- dyed by hand,
- oiled by hand,
- burnished by hand,
- balmed by hand.
- I wax the thread by hand,
- and then it is stitched by hand.
Once assembled the outside edges are finished by hand. They are first sanded smooth, dyed, burnished, and then buffed.
In short, this American Made Leather Wallet is not like any other wallet. Menโs leather wallets made in the USA (all over the world, actually) are typically machine made and made in-bulk. The Armando is a USA made wallet which is made-to-order one at a time by an individual craftsman.

Purchase Your Very Own Galileo Passport Case
I was originally going to support purchasing of the Galileo Passport Case directly through my main catalog but something about that just didn't feel right, too disconnected, too much work having to be done on your end, also not very human. And so, if you have read up to this point and are interested or ready to buy, just use the form below to send me a quick email. I'll follow-up with questions that will need answered, the color you'd like, and other options that can be discussed. Once those details are finalized I will send you an invoice through my Shopify site where you can submit payment (or you can mail a check if you still have some of those laying around). Once payment is received your order will go into my queue.
I look forward to hearing from you!
