    Free Personalization — Crafted by hand in Monroe, CT

    The wallet he graduates to, with something from you engraved inside.

    • Built as a first real wallet, with your message inside
    • Your message laser-engraved inside, up to 150 characters
    • His initials engraved on the front, up to 3 characters
    • Genuine leather with 8 card slots, ID window, and a metal money clip
    • Slim profile that sits flat in a front or back pocket

    He has been carrying cards in a phone case or a folded bit of nylon since he was fourteen. This is the one he upgrades to, and the first thing in his pocket that somebody chose for him on purpose.

    Every time he opens it, your message is right there. The engraving is cut into the leather rather than printed, so it reads the same in year ten as it does on the day you hand it to him. The leather darkens and softens as it ages and the words stay sharp.

    How to Personalize

    1. Enter up to 3 initials in the Initials box on this page for engraving on the front of the wallet.
    2. Write your inside message in the Custom Inside Message box, up to 150 characters including spaces.
    3. Review your personalization carefully before adding to cart.

    Stuck on what to say? A few that people have used:

    • First real wallet. Carry it like you carry yourself.
    • You are turning into someone we would have picked as a friend.
    • Keep your head up. Keep your word. Keep this.
    • Every man needs one good wallet and someone in his corner. You have both.
    • Not a kid anymore. Still ours though.
    • Whatever you spend it on, spend it like you earned it.

    Our team laser-engraves every wallet by hand in Monroe, Connecticut.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is this a good gift for a teenager?
    It is aimed at the point where a boy starts carrying his own ID, bank card and licence, which is usually somewhere between sixteen and nineteen. The leather is full grain rather than novelty, so it does not read as a kid's gift, and the engraved message inside is the part he keeps long after the wallet is just a wallet.
    How long can the inside message be?
    Up to 150 characters including spaces, which comes out to roughly three or four short lines. We engrave it in script lettering centered on the inside panel. Shorter messages engrave larger, so two or three lines usually reads best.
    Will the engraving wear off in his pocket?
    No. Both the initials and the inside message are laser-engraved into the leather rather than printed or stamped with ink, so there is no surface layer to rub away. The leather darkens and softens as it ages and the lettering stays legible.
    Is personalization really free?

    Yes, every item includes free personalization. Just enter your details on the product page and we'll customize it before shipping.
