These are from our legacy leather lot - Last few remain!

If you are a fan of motorsports, you probably recognize this pattern. This design pays homage to the race cars of the 1920s and 1930s.

Handpunched holes, handcrafted with two layers of premium vegetable-tanned full grain leather and a brass-plated key ring, this is a nice firm key fob that will feel substantial in your hand.

While most other leather key fobs on the market peel, tear or crack within a year, these will last for ten, twenty, thirty years and counting.

Built to Last a Lifetime

MAKING PROCESS

Every key tab is carefully hand stitched and hand burnished using a single thread and two needles. This is a time honored saddlery technique called  saddle-stitching that makes a very durable seam. The stitching will not unravel easily even if a couple of stitches break (unlikely since our thread has enough strength to hold up 20 kgs).

It takes 2 hours to carefully cut, hand stitch and edge burnish this key tab.

What is Full Grain Leather?

Full grain leather means the top most part of the grain has not been sanded off. This makes the leather strong and resilient. It takes whatever life throws at it and ages beautifully with a unique patina over time - giving each wallet a unique character.

Built to Last

no fillers, no compromises

This product has been designed and built to last a lifetime. It has been meticulously hand sttiched with 1.2 mm thick full grain leather and traditional saddlery techniques.

Why Hand Stitching?

We use a time-honored hand stitching technique called the saddle-stitch. This technique uses a single thread and two needles. A tiny knot is made between each stich, making it virtually impossible for the stitches to come off or unravel. Sewing machines cannot compete with the saddle stitch when it comes to durability of seams.
