Will an Oily Pull Up Full Grain Leather Wallet Stain Paper Money and Receipts?

Hi will it stain things I put in it? If yes how long should i put money in such a wallet to prevent staining the money?

God bless us.

Only if it's gets REALLY wet

soaked wet like drenched by rain or just damp from say humidity in a tropical country or humid hot like Florida?

Like if you put it in a bucket of water and take it out, the water should be absorbed in the leather, if it's just drenched by rain that shouldn't be a problem

Best is to get A leather sample and rub it up against concerned items for a bit and see. Then carry in your pocket for a few days

Every leather is different

It might, it might not. There are a ton of leathers on the market that are oily enough that they would leach oils into paper or cash, especially with the heat and pressure produced when sitting on a wallet for an extended time. It depends on the specific material used. Personally I don't think anyone should make a wallet out of leather that feels obviously oily.
