Evolution of Leather Goods: Before and After Pictures


Recommended Posts

^nice pick up... I've been wanting a sammy belt. I'm rocking the tanner right now. I just oiled it too but surprisingly it didn't turn much darker.

we sometimes use normal nivea handcream to mature and darken the leather, works great!

Here is my anti-bigbeef wallet. Some time ago, I started migrating to a thinner wallet and carrying only what I needed. This is a Prada card holder, and it does well for me. A little over a year old, no before pics.

Seems like the leather is of good quality and I don't have back problems from sitting on it. Can carry it with a suit easily, as well. I love the look of some of these beefy wallets, and may order a Skull sometime, but I just can't get on board with a 2" thick piece of leather in my back pocket.

And you can still get some wallet fade with a thin one if you are a denimhead.

and nice case chicken. how long between those shots, thats a lot of color change.

it's just a little less than six months. mostly, i've been trying to just clean the indigo off every few weeks, in terms of treatment. other than that, i oiled it about twice.

looks like the indigo color on the backside in the shape of my old phone isn't going to go away now. oh well. :D
