The Martin Wallet - Black & Blue Crazy Horse
Jet Black Veg-Tan / Blue Crazy Horse / Bright Blue Tiger Thread
Handcrafted in Oregon, this bold multi-texture edition pairs a sleek Jet Black vegetable-tanned leather exterior with rich deep blue Crazy Horse interior pockets, hand saddle-stitched together with vibrant bright blue Ritza Tiger thread.
An original design created by Martin Leather Company, The Martin Wallet reimagines the classic bifold for modern, slim carry. Built for front-pocket everyday carry (EDC), this minimalist fold-over cardholder eliminates the extra bulk of a full cash compartment while keeping your essential cards and folded cash organized in a refined profile.
Famous for its dramatic pull-up effect, Crazy Horse leather displays natural tone shifts whenever flexed or handled. Combined with structured black full grain veg-tan leather, every wallet is hand-stitched using ultra-durable braided Tiger Thread and finished with hand-sanded, Tokonole burnished smooth edges. Built to outlast the pocket it sits in, this piece will quickly develop a deep, personalized patina.

The Character of Crazy Horse Leather
Crazy Horse leather is made by applying natural waxes to full-grain hide, giving it an antique, tactile finish. Rubbing, scratching, or bending the leather causes its natural oils to migrate, lightening the color in flexed areas and creating a dynamic vintage look that evolves with everyday use.
Leather Care Guide
• Embrace the Wear: Scuffs, tonal variations, and rapid darkening are normal, celebrated traits of Crazy Horse leather. Minor surface scratches can be buffed out with the warmth of your thumb.
• Keep it Dry: If exposed to water, gently blot with a soft cloth and let air-dry naturally away from direct heat.
• Condition Periodically: Apply a high-quality, natural leather balm every 6–12 months to maintain flexibility.
• Avoid Overstuffing: Full-grain leather stretches to conform to your daily carry, but will not shrink back.
