i love the daytona bros movies, they have a great one for kawatako and for klax-on

[pepper davies]

I have no idea what they're saying, but it's hilarious. Mustard yellow kawatako?

Btw, does anyone has N & F belt?

If there is, quick review on it.

I got a friend questioning about it and I got no idea.

Thanks people.

I have a naked and famous belt ask away.

i would love to work in a place where asking to see the leather evo on ur colleagues wallet would not be frowned upon.

[lazybum]

no idea what they're talking about, but their vids are pretty fun to watch!

Any idea what kind of finish is applied on one of those wallets to give that semi glossy look?

[mikecch]

Awesome video tropicalbird...I wish I had leather-friends in real life (no homo).

I see a few different top artisan wallets there

Here's my newly acquired Tedman wallet, bought through Earthmarket.

It's some really nice leather, with some real nice texture to it!

Only been used for a few days now, just wanted to show you how it looks.

Theres quite a few pictures, but it's what i was able to narrow it down to, hehe

Edit: Look the post underneath for pictures, thanks a.khan

What he ment to post

[mikecch]

Speaking of Kawatako, here are some really nice leather from their $600 cattlehide wallets.

This one is their Vari collab., a leather full of texture...seems really interesting:

The 'mustard' coloured one...well, gold:

'Moon-lit night':

I really like the concept of pre-cut outer-shells on display, and the customer can see and touch the leather.

Their range of leathers can be seen here as well:

[mikecch]

I really want one of Kawatako's Takumi wallets:

One of the best cattlehide wallets around?

[k4727]

ive been drooling over that for a while, i just know that it will be years before i could afford that

[mikecch]

^ Check out these cheaper ones, which use Tochigi's veg tanned leather instead of imported UK bridle leather...

what about this one? any good

[mikecch]

It's from the same Kawatako Spirit series I think - made with Tochigi veg. tanned leather.

Good quality leather, I say why not.

[crownzip]

here's my old cowhide wallet from the 60's.

[pepper davies]

I have a Kawatako wallet I'm interested in getting rid of. Figured I should throw up an interest check with all of the talk in this thread. Send a PM!

[Jpo1932]

Sorry it's taken so long to put more pics up.. School's kinda been in the way.

I"ll take some proper ones when I get more time.

[GregoryH]
