At the bench
Saddle is the working brown, named for the leather trade's oldest job. It carries cards, cash, and a phone the way tack carries weather: without complaint, better for it.
The working brown. It was built to be used, so use it.
The first frame left our bench in 2010, made for a scratched iPhone 4. Fifteen years of refinement later, this is the same idea, grown up.

Made by hand. Made for one.
A wallet and a case, cut from one hide. Oil-waxed, vegetable-tanned cowhide, hand-stitched at our bench. Three card pockets and a larger slot behind them carry your cards and cash, so the bulky wallet stays home.
The leather keeps its natural texture. Expect slight color variation and natural marks. Yours will look different from every other folio that leaves this studio, because it is.
The frame
Your iPhone presses into the CAD-engineered internal frame. Brass buttons cover the originals and keep every function at your thumb and a sensory button for the Camera Control access (for iPhone 18, 17, 16 series). The frame rises about 2mm above the screen, shielding the glass and the corners when the day gets careless. All the iPhone cases we handcrafted are MagSafe compatible.
Fits: iPhone 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12 series.
Embossing: initials, up to three letters, hand-pressed at our bench. Included.
The first frame left our bench in 2010, designed to protect a scratched iPhone 4 without covering its screen since then. Fifteen years of refinement later, the same idea carries most iPhones.
To US customers: tariffs covered for standard shipping.
Made by hand. Made for one.
Every piece leaves our bench in Hong Kong, made for one person, the one who will carry it. Oil-waxed leather doesn't need much. A soft cloth when it's dusty, a light conditioner once or twice a year. Marks and softening are the leather settling in with you. It ages with you, not on a clock.
Why TRIM
Each piece is made once the order is placed. Nothing sits in a warehouse.
Up to three initials, hand-pressed at the bench. No extra charge.
The leather marks and softens with use, not on a clock.
