See the video of the Large Gadget Pouch to understand more here
Dimensions: 8 ¾"w x 10
3/8"h ((22.2cm x 26.4cm) flat, but can fit a large grapefruit inside. All
measurements are from outside edge to outside edge (Stitching robs 1/8" from
each side, but leather can stretch quite a bit if you want it to).
Lining - Lined with pigskin, which has the 2nd toughest tensile strength
rating of leathers. Kangaroo is the toughest.
Leather - Made with 100% stout 4 to
5 oz (2.0mm to 2.2mm) thick Full Grain leather. Usually, cowboy and work boots
are made with 1.8mm - 2.0mm thickness.
Please don't confuse Full Grain with the inferior Top Grain, Genuine or
Bonded leathers. Caution: If something "Made WITH Full Grain leather" is priced
unbelievably low, don't believe it. Schlicksters often use vinyl or cheap
leather for most of the design and use full grain leather for only 10% of the
rest of the bag, sofa or recliner. Isn't that interesting?
Construction - Made from one solid piece of Full Grain leather rather than
several pieces. Seams are the weakest place and so the fewer the better. It
would be much cheaper for us to make this with several smaller pieces, but it's
the quality details such as this that separates us from the masses.
Thread - The double zero continuous-filament Polyester thread we use is a
little thicker than what is used on most boots. This thread is impressive and
expensive. Common thread is made of short little fibers wound together into one
long thread. This thread is made of long continuous fibers that won't fall
apart in a strong wind. Polyester thread
is the only thread I know of that doesn't deteriorate with exposure to sun.

Which color should I get?
Pick the one that fits who you are. I've observed what the bag owners
tend to be like based on the color they have chosen over the years. The
category below that fits you best is probably the color you'll enjoy
most. Also, to help you decide, you can take this test http://www.oneishy.com/personality/personality_test.php
You'll be amazed at how it helps you decide. Remember, your first inclination is usually the correct one.

If you still aren't sure, then just buy all four colors.
Are the animals tortured before they are slaughtered?
Absolutely not! With some pigs we do use waterboarding and
sensory deprivation techniques previous to slaughtering them, but the
cows do not require any special handling.
Where can I see one of the wallets in person?
I don't have any of the items in stores and we're not big fans of
folks coming to our home in San Antonio because of the weirdo factor.
My sister, Patricia and her husband (my Chess and Scrabble nemesis),
send out the leather from their place near Ft. Worth, Texas, but again,
because of the weirdo factor they're not set up to show either. If it
helps, everyone tells me that they look better in person.
