Makr may be a small outfit from Florida but they’re leather goods place well as a gift for the man in your life. Their Horween wallet (which I happen to use) is now available in black. “The Flap Wallet is a horizontal flap closure wallet with receiving strap. The strap tightly closes the wallet and hides a laser etched logo panel. The design protects cards and allows for cash to be folded once and slipped behind.”

Not sure how MW got his hands on this one but it looks like things just fall into his mailbox. Check this flap wallet from MAKR made from “Horween Shell Cordovan by special order.” “If you aren’t familiar with Horween, the Chicago-based family-run operation one of the last surviving tanneries in the United States and producer of some of the finest leather goods the world over.”
