Fans with WILDSWANS often describe our brand as “durable,” “long-lasting,” “saddle leather,” and “aging.” These perceptions develop over time but are shaped by many customers who use our products and consistently leave positive reviews.
The presence of saddle leather is key to WILDSWANS earning such deep appreciation. Known for its firmness, without explanation, its texture lets users intuitively sense its exceptional durability. Let’s understand more details about them.
The Classic Series features the following characteristics.
Firstly, each part is several millimeters thicker than the standard model. Especially, the edge thickness comparison using the TONGUE.
Left: Standard model Right: Classic Series model
Secondly, the use of single-piece leather parts (no backing leather in standard models)
Classic Series items feature thicker leather in certain areas than standard models. Also, single-piece leather parts lack the backing found in standard models, revealing the leather’s natural grain. This shows the leather’s original condition before tanning.
Finally, the use of parts with wrinkles and bloodlines
Saddle leather often displays wrinkles and bloodlines present in the cow during its lifetime. For the Classic Series items, we deliberately used sections where these characteristics are more pronounced than in the standard model. This allows us to express the wild, untamed look inherent to saddle leather more directly.
SADDLE PULL UP / TONGUE (CL)…¥22,770(tax included)
The TONGUE is small, but it features the most durable edge finish we’ve ever made. This model lets you experience even more of the distinctive firm tension for which Saddle leather is known.
SADDLE PULL UP / WINGS (CL)…¥32,670(tax included)
WILDSWANS’ oldest item since founding, a simple billfold without a coin case, recommended for use with the TONGUE. Unlike the current version, it lacks lining in the bill compartment but has leather inserts on both sides for easier bill insertion and removal.
SADDLE PULL UP / GROUNDER (CL)…¥51,480(tax included)
A bifold wallet with a coin case is easy to use. Like the WINGS, it has no lining inside the bill compartment but leather inserts on both sides. The coin case also lacks lining. Its thicker build makes it seem durable itself.
SADDLE PULL UP / PALM (CL)…¥36,630(tax included)
PALM(old version) is a compact, portable design with a bill compartment, balancing size and functionality. Suitable for any setting, it keeps bills, coins, and cards together. The coin pocket divider also holds receipts or cards.
The “Classic Series” was created as a new WILDSWANS line, designed to let users experience this signature firmness even more deeply. You can buy all of them whether you’re in our physical store or on our official website.
