Hi Christoph,
Greetings from Nairobi Kenya,
Thank you for response, we will work with black Cowhide Leather.
On the additional fabric wallet,
The price will be less by 10 Euros only. This is because fabrics needs to be reinforced to take shape.
I have attached 3 samples to select from.
Please note additional shipping charges of up to 30 Euros will apply.
Looking forward to your approval.
With thanks,
Gikonyo Stellar

Hello Christoph,
We appreciate your quick feedback.
Allow me two days to finalize.
I want to substitute the Velcro closure on the leather wallet with a press button for a more fitting closure.
With thanks,

Kindly let me know if you're fully satisfied, we'll send the wallets to you as soon as possible.
