The story of the Custom made small wallet with a clip:
Negotiation phase
Greetings. I'm Denis, from Custom Casuals Africa. I'd be happy to take on your small wallet with a clip project. Everything is clear and executable. I understand it is important for the magnet to be good so that the wallet remains closed but unfortunately what we have here in Kenya I can't guarantee is going to satisfy your requirements. My suggestion was for you to send your old wallet to Mr. Jochen (our CEO) who'll be travelling to Kenya on the 17th of December from Berlin. I believe that this will be the best option so we can clone your old wallet as well as utilize it's high quality magnet at no unnecessary extra cost. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind regards,
Denis
Hello Denis,
that's a good idea. Can you send me the address of Jochen, then I can send my wallet to him.

Happy Holidays! I hope you are having a happy festive season. The wallet is in the country, it arrived just before the festive period. We'll pick it this week as we resume operations and proceed with your project as first priority. I'll keep you updated. I'll also send you pictures of plain and printed black leather so you can choose the one you prefer. Thank you.
Kind regards,
Denis.
Hello Denis, how does it look?
LG Andreas
Greetings. I hope you are well. The wallet is with us currently. I have two options for black leather, can be plain or in Golf print. I have attached the images for your input. Incase you find the colors a little bit off, it's because of light reflection. Looking forward to hearing from you soon so we can expedite the craft process. Thank you.
Kind regards,
Denis.

Hello Denis,
Looks pretty good so far, but I don't see the magnet. It's important, please don't forget it.
Greetings
Andreas
Thank you for your quick response. Kindly find attached an additional image I hope the magnet is visible.
Kind regards,
Denis.
Hello Denis,
thank you very much I am looking forward to my new wallet.
Greetings Andreas
I hope you're doing well.
This is Vicky, the local operations manager. I received your wallet from Denis, and I’m really impressed with the craftsmanship. He used smooth, sturdy leather, and the stitching is exceptionally neat.
The only notable difference is that, in your original wallet, the receipt slot curves outward, whereas in Denis’ version, it curves inward. However, it still holds receipts securely.
I’ve attached photos showing different angles of the wallet, including how it looks with cards and receipts, as well as its dimensions. Please take a look and let us know your thoughts.
Looking forward to your feedback.
Best regards,
Vicky Achieng.
Hello Vicky,
I like it very much. I'm already looking forward to it.
