The leading British website for tailoring, luxury and men's style
A lovely video this, showing a lot of the detail of making a hand-sewn alligator wallet - from Charlie Trevor at Equus Leather. It was just released today.
The music might be a bit much, but I think we can forgive it that.
Thanks Justin. We did have a couple of people take small and medium, to check which was the right size, so it's definitely worth being on the waiting list for when one of those comes back.

Read the commentsDefinitely my favourite look. i love how its a tie-less formal outfit and one that looks super relaxed, and it works really really well.

Read the commentsHey Tjaco, Sure, happy to help. A lot of tailors will be flexible on both the gorge height and the rollino. Ciardi has done both options for me, for example. Particularly with the gorge height, I wouldn't pick a tailor on that basis. It's easy…

If leather crafting doesn’t work out, Charlie could tinkle the ivories in a west End pub.
A combination of the new fiver making my money clip obsolete and our new dog chewing my Berluti credit card wallet put me in the market.
I commissioned Charlie to make me a ‘Lloyd Billfold’ wallet in mid brown safari Alligator with muscade chèvre inner and brown lin cable.
It wasn’t cheap but I have to say it is an absolute work of art that leaves the likes of Berluti and Hermes in the shade. The standard of craftsmanship is off the Richter scale and the piece will become a family heirloom. Thank you PS for bringing this amazing company to my attention.
