Wallet 3-3 - Castagna Calfskin

In the second half of the 20th century, Germany emerged as a major industrial economy. Taking advantage of exceptional German tanneries and a highly skilled workforce in artisanal crafts, a thriving leather manufacturing industry existed just to the southeast of Frankfurt. The level of quality combined with the volume of production was something small-scale artisans like me can only dream of. Unfortunately, nearly all of that manufacturing base has disappeared - with the exception of one firm: Kreis. The Kreis family continues to produce the highest quality leather products in the world with an exceptional range of offerings from belts and wallets to bags and briefcases. As a shoemaker, I don't take that statement lightly. In fact, after seeing the way their products are constructed and the materials they use, I can honestly say there's no conceivable way they could be improved. Whether you're looking for a wallet, belt, bag, etc., there is a more expensive option out there, but there's not a better one than Kreis.
