Anyone who’s spent time restoring a project car knows the appeal of things built the old-fashioned way — good materials, real stitching, no shortcuts. Nowell Leather applies that same approach to everyday-carry gear, hand-stitching wallets, card holders, and small leather goods meant to get better with age, not fall apart after a year in a back pocket. Here’s a look at their current lineup, with a few reasons each piece makes sense for anyone who lives out of a truck, a garage, or a road-trip-ready trunk.
5-Pack Small(er) Coaster With Specialty Stitching — $25 (was $50)
Cheap insurance for the workbench. Set your drink down after a long night under the hood without leaving a ring on anything.
Brown Laredo Leather ID Holder Keychain — $25
One strap for your fob, shop keys, and ID instead of a rattling ring buried in a cupholder.
Envelope Style Card Holder (Red/Black) — $25
Thin enough to live in a glovebox or center console without adding any bulk, with just enough room for a license and a couple of cards.
Laredo Brown Full-Sized Leather Wallet — $25 (was $45)
No frills, no gimmicks — just a full-sized wallet built to be used hard and broken in over time.
Laredo-Brown Leather Bracelet (for 5-inch wrists) — $15
A simple way to wear the same leather that lines a good bench seat, right on your wrist at the wheel.
Leather Envelope-Style Card Holder (Red/Bronze) — $25
Same slim envelope build, this time in a red and bronze finish that stands out against a plain jacket or glovebox tray.
Leather Envelope-Style Card Holder (Red/Gold) — $25
The same handy card holder in a red and gold finish, for anyone who wants a little more shine at the next car show.
One-of-One Green & Yellow Croc-Embossed Leather Wallet & ID Holder Keychain Set — $149.99
A one-off set, no two alike — kind of like a numbered build sheet on a limited-run car. Croc-embossed leather in a green and yellow finish that won’t turn up twice.
Phone Hand-Bag — $50
Keeps a phone, cash, and cards together for cruise nights and car show weekends when your pockets are already full of keys and shop rags.
Vaquero Side Leather Brown Card Wallet — $25
For anyone who’d rather carry less and leave more room in their pockets for wrenches and washers.
Vaquero Side Leather Clutch — $40 (was $50)
Roomy enough for a phone, keys, and registration paperwork on a road trip, without hauling a full bag along for the ride.
Vaquero Side Leather Clutch Wallet — $25
A smaller take on the clutch above, sized to ride in a glovebox next to the owner’s manual and a tire gauge.
Vaquero Side Leather Red Four Pocket Wallet — $30
Four pockets means room for cards, cash, and the shop punch card, all in one place instead of scattered across the truck.
Vaquero Side Leather Three Pocket Wallet — $30
A slightly slimmer three-pocket layout for anyone who wants the organization without the bulk in a back pocket.

Vaquero Side Leather Wallet — $80
The flagship of the lineup, built from thicker side leather for anyone who wants their everyday wallet to outlast a few road trips.
