The idea from Benjamin from Langenhagen:
I need a black and red wallet to ride a motorbike where a car license fits in.
The dimensions of the compartment for the car license would be at least 7.5cm x 11.6cm.
There is always only something for the car license without a wallet
or a wallet that's too big for a car license. A money clip for the bills would suffice.
I'll attach photos of a sample, but it won't fit a car license.
It's supposed to look like this. Gladly in leather / also imitation leather in black / red

Hi Benjamin,
Thank you for your order. I'd love to fulfil this order for you
Here is a photo of something that I have already. We can use it together with the images you've sent to get to something that works for you.
As for the money clip, I can't make any promises on getting it but I'll will let you know when we talk next if I'll have managed to source it.
Everything else I think we can discuss, I'd rather use real leather for you to receive the best value for your money.

Hi Benjamin,
Trust that your weekend is going well. Here are samples of the leather I have in stock as well as samples of s card holder design. I'd love to work on a design based on the wallet you have and the sample photos I have sent if you like it.

Hello, Virginia,
the colours of the leather look good. That would be okay.
There are not enough compartments. According to your pictures, there are only two. It also seems too small for me, if only a business card would fit in there like in the photo. I can get a cover just for the car license here on site. But then the possibilities for change, credit cards and bank notes are missing
I need compartments for change, credit cards and a compartment for banknotes or clips.

Hello Benjamin,
I see what you mean. Please find an attached photo of a sketch I have made. The parts shaded in a black pen will be the black leather and the rest in red. The card compartments, the coins compartment and the cash compartments will be lined using black cotton fabric.
I was thinking to stitch in red for aesthetics.
If there’s anything else you’d like added to the wallet let me know, I am yet to get a money clip to attach unfortunately but it will have a notes partition.
Also, please find a revised quote. Apologies for this inconvenience.
I hope the sketch is understandable. But I’ll be available in case of any questions, suggestions or clarifications

Hi Benjamin,
Today we worked on preparing and cutting the leather. Here is how the layout is.
I'll have some videos for you on the rest including the sawing process next.

Hi Virginia,
Hi Virginia,
I like what I saw. The important thing is that the car license fits in. 7,5cm x 11,6cm. That is very important. Can of course also be 8cm x 12 cm.
Then I have a perfect wallet for motorcycling.
Thank you very much and have a nice evening.
Many greetings

Hello Virginia,
Hello Virginia,
yes I think that fits. My weekend was the same as always.... Not much happened. We're staying home all the time because of the pandemic.
I hope your weekend was better.
Wish you a good start into this week!

Hi Benjamin,
Great. I’ll make it ready for shipping if there are no changes. It was great working on this project 😊
Sorry to hear that.
My weekend was good. We had a pop up market got to mingle though we observed the protocols the best way sanitizing and masked up... safety comes first.
Hopefully next year will be better.
