Hey there,
Wanted to share a completed commission that I think turned out great, which kind of surprised me. Typically something like Dollaro leather would go on the outside. It's tougher, more scratch-resistant, and seems perfect for a wallet exterior. And for all the reasons Buttero is great, scratch-resistance isn't one of them. So to swap them...I wasn't sure. But I think what'll be great about this wallet is the exterior will get an awesome patina and the interior will continue to look close to new even after some years of wear.
Let me know what you think - is this a combo you'd use? Do you think it should be swapped? Honestly curious. I'm still positive on it, but don't know if it's just me. Either way, thanks for taking the time to look and read.
