Review : Porter Card Case

Porter’s motto : “Heart & Soul into every stitch” is nothing short of the truth. In fact, the Yoshida Co has been producing hand made utilitarian bags since the early 30′s. They boast an impressive reputation by bringing a simple & stylish design approach yet putting a complete devotion to functionality, materials and fabrication.

I’ve owned this case for a year now. It belongs to the Freestyle collection. The leather-like effect is obtained by rubbing by hand the polyurethane-coated canvas making it fully weather & tear resistant. So far, after a year of living in my back pocket, the wallet is in MINT condition. Not a scratch or a tear in sight.

Eric sent over this bracelet and I got to test out the leather on this bad boy. So far, so good, its starting to soften up real nice on the edges and the veggie tanned leather is darkening beautifully. Eric and I have a little project (still behind closed-doors, for now) that I’m very excited about. Keep on reading!
