Best idea is to measure a belt that you have right now, from the hole you buckle it at to the end of the buckle. Don't go by the size on the belt or the size on your jeans, because they've most likely stretched and changed shape a bit. General rule of thumb is that your belt size is 2" larger than your waist where you wear your jeans though.

 

I have completed a new design, called it Goliath Veg Tan Long Wallet. Detail pics on my site though.

Is it too 'loud'?

 

It does the name good

 

Dang, looks really nice obbi. Top quality craftsmanship..

 

Thanks Petrick and Ricky! I've applied some mink oil 1st before taking pics of it, if u r wondering the uneven surface.

 

My dad gives to me his OG Timberland (MADE IN USA yeah ) and i like these a lot...

Any suggestion for clean these?! Sea, can you help me?!

really feeling the nudie wallets but i keep my cash in the front pocket and only carry id, metro card and debit card so i havent the need for a wallet so i carry a 2 slot card holder with a magnetic $ clip. really small gets the job done

 

NO

nudie wallets are horrible quality. the threads come off really easy, the leather is of very low grade.
you wont be able to get good progress from it, and even if your not looking for that, you can get something 10x better for that price or for a little more... (ie. our very own obbigood or corter)


and gen, buy some mink oil and apply it on with a white cloth
it polishes, softens and prevents water/stain damage. you might also want to add water repellent if you're planning to go out in the snow with them. very nice boots btw =D

you dont really have to clean them, the old, worn in look is just superb. just do the oiling to re-moisturize them

 

gen43ver - your boots look amazing!

 

^yeah the nudie wallets are very pricey, out of my range to want to pay for a wallet, for that i'd cop some sneaks, never can have enough sneaks.

-mink oil is great to get old boots nice and softened, back to shape, but use sparingly when the leather dries out. since mink oil is made from minks fatty acids... over time those acids will deteriorate the threading but this quite some time, maybe 5-10years. overall mink oil is GREAT to have on hand for leather, wallets and jackets where flexibility is essential to make it last. but boots, the softening will deform it by making it too soft and stretchable after awhile. THE BEST product for boots is Obenauf's Heavy Duty Leather Preservative this is the beast of leather moisturizer/protectors

 

you sir, are 100% correct. glad to have you on board. ive heard great things about obenaufs, but you usually have to buy it online and pay for shipping and all that. just a pain in the butt for me. instead, i just went for a 5 minute drive and got my mink oil, so it was a much more convenient option..

People, stay away from Neatsfoot Oil. Specific chemicals and ingredients in it deteriorate the threads and are harmful to your leather. Don't gamble. Just thought i'd let you know.


and treasure.... oh man POST PICS!!! flat head stuff is the best....

 

Do I see a Flathead natural belt in my future ...

consult magic 8ball

HOORAY! Should be here soon! :cheers:

 

Thanks for the suggestions mates... i will search it or something like that

 

My wallet is ready... Can't wait until it arrives! Thanks Obbi!

 

nice petrik!!!

any studio d'artisan look wallet is a beaut.

is this the same as the one you did for the doc, obbi?

 

No Sea, I didn't made for Doc, I made for beautiful_Freak Doc got from Corter, and I represented beautiful_Freak hehe. We had a little contest, friendly contest.

For this wallet, the external is the same, just a little longer and slimmer just like Petrick said. I custom made it for him. It was a very challenging and enjoyable experience. I have to make sure all his requests are met and at the same time the design must appeal to him. We discussed over email with drafted design drawings for 1 week
Very enjoyable.

 

This is slightly different. It's longer and thinner, it has no coin compartment.

 

thought it looked a little longer lol. didnt know if it was the camera angle. the original d'artisan is a midlength correct?

 

My knowledge of that is unsufficiant but I just liked the holster look of it and it fits my needs;

hold cards and paper money. And ofcourse the quality of the leather, I'm really gonna use this thing every day...

 

Any photos of the inside? Also would like to see a close up of the end of the chain if possible. That weave looks interesting.

Outside looks great!

 

This is the close up of the end. But Petrik's rein got few tassles at the other end.

The internal, slimmer as requested by Petrik. There is also lambskin lining inside of the larger card slot.

 

Well I got the belt but I am thinking that is to short. I can only use the 1st hole and it barely has enough length to go under my belt loop. On top of that not so crazy about the buckle. I will post some fit pics in a little bit and get some opinions.

 

wow fast shipping! and looking forward for the pics!

 

 

Dam that looks sick!

 

you think that is long enough?

 

The belt itself looks good, TH. Like u mentioned, its a bit too short. A little longer will be perfect.

 

Imo that belt is short

...But it's a simple and nice belt, i like it :thumbsup:

 

Man the belt looks sick keep it
