A calfskin wallet embossed with a black-tipped pebble pattern
The wallet is made from top-grain calfskin, the strong outer layer of the hide, embossed with a bold pebble pattern of large, irregular, rounded pebbles. Its black tipping settles into every crease between the pebbles while the raised tops keep the lighter tone of the leather, so each pebble stands out inside a fine dark outline. The pattern is embossed into calfskin; it is not exotic skin. The surface has a soft satin sheen rather than a gloss.
Eight card slots, two slip pockets and a full-length bill compartment
The wallet opens like a book onto a smooth black interior with stitched edges. Each side carries four stepped card slots, eight in all, above a plain lower panel, for the cards you reach for every day. The full-length bill compartment runs the full width of the wallet behind both sides and opens along the top edge, so bills lie flat at full length. Two slip pockets sit hidden inside for spare cards, receipts or a transit pass. The gold foil GENTCREATE stamp sits centered on the plain lower panel of the left-hand side, below the card slots. There is no ID window, no coin pocket and no flip-up.
RFID blocking in the two slip pockets
The two slip pockets have RFID blocking, designed to stop the contactless cards inside them from being read through the wallet. The RFID blocking is in those two pockets, so they are the place for the contactless cards you most want shielded.
A slim landscape bifold with a plain outer panel
Folded, the wallet measures 11.4 x 9.7 cm (4.49 x 3.82 in): 11.4 cm (4.49 in) wide and 9.7 cm (3.82 in) tall, with the fold along one short side. Its outside is one continuous panel of pebble calfskin from front to back, with no seams, pockets or logo, finished with tonal stitching along every edge and thin painted edges. With no snap, zip, strap or metal hardware, it stays slim in a front trouser pocket or the inside pocket of a jacket.

Caring for black-tipped pebble calfskin
- Wipe with a soft, dry cloth, working along the creases of the pebble grain.
- If it gets wet, blot it and let it dry at room temperature, never next to a heater or in direct sun.
- For a deeper clean, use a cleaner made for finished leather and test it on a small area of the back first.
- Avoid solvents and alcohol-based cleaners, which can lift the tipping from the creases and dull the satin finish.
- Avoid overfilling the card slots, so they keep their shape and the wallet closes flat.
Men's bifold wallet questions
Is it exotic leather?
No. It is top-grain calfskin embossed with a pebble pattern, not exotic skin.
What is black tipping?
It is a finish that darkens the creases of the grain while the raised pebbles keep the lighter tone of the leather, so every pebble on the wallet has a fine dark outline.
How many cards does it hold?
It has eight card slots, four on each side, plus two slip pockets and a full-length bill compartment.
Does it block RFID?
Yes, in the two slip pockets. They are designed to stop the contactless cards inside them from being read through the wallet.
Does it have a coin pocket or an ID window?
No. The wallet has card slots, slip pockets and a bill compartment, with no coin pocket, ID window or flip-up.
Where is the GENTCREATE logo?
Inside only, in gold foil on the lower panel of the left-hand side. The outside of the wallet is plain.
Will it fit in a front pocket?
Yes. It is a slim bifold with no snap, zip or metal hardware, so it sits flat in a front trouser pocket or the inside pocket of a jacket.
What size is it?
11.4 x 9.7 cm (4.49 x 3.82 in) folded, 11.4 cm wide and 9.7 cm tall.
Do bills need folding in this wallet?
No. The bill compartment runs the full 22.8 cm (8.98 in) width of the open wallet, so a US bill, 15.6 cm (6.14 in) long, goes in flat and folds once with the wallet. Euro, pound and 10,000 yen notes fit the same way.
