Johnny the Fox Leather Wallet
The bifold that gets sharper with age.
Named for Johnny Torrio — "The Fox," the quiet strategist who ran Chicago on brains, not brawn — this bifold works the same way: clean outside, clever inside, better every year. Handcrafted in Chicago from natural Horween® Shell Cordovan with a reverse shell interior.
- Holds 24 cards — six card slots + two hidden slots (we suggest 3 per slot)
- One full-length bill slot — fits US dollars and most international notes (up to 193 × 80mm)
- Natural Horween® Shell Cordovan exterior with a reverse shell interior
- Handcrafted in Chicago. Guaranteed for Life.
The Leather: Horween® Shell Cordovan
Widely considered the finest leather in the world, Shell Cordovan is vegetable-tanned at Horween® over six months in roughly 100 mostly-manual steps — a process unchanged since 1905. Its dense fiber structure resists creasing (it rolls rather than creases), and it's self-polishing: a quick pass with a horsehair brush revives the glassy luster. No polish needed.
How It Ages
Natural is the lightest shade Horween® makes — which means it has the most patina potential and the most dramatic transformation ahead of it. The tone deepens and layers of luster build with every carry; a horsehair brush brings the shine back in seconds.
FAQ
Why does Shell Cordovan cost more? Each shell is vegetable-tanned over six months in ~100 mostly-manual steps, and demand outstrips what Horween® can make. It's the last wallet you'll ever need to buy.
Front pocket or back pocket? Both — it's a full-size bifold that stays slim because the card slots don't over-stack.
Will it hold euros, pounds, or yen? Yes — any note smaller than 193 × 80mm fits flat.
How do I care for it? A quick pass with a horsehair brush brings back the shine — Shell Cordovan is self-polishing, no product needed.
Can I personalize it? Yes — most items can be monogrammed. Add Item Personalization at checkout or email [email protected].
