Finally got around to posting some photos of the clutch I made for my wife. She had an old cheapo wallet that she loved so I reversed engineered the pattern somewhat. Used 3.5 oz Chromexcel for the body, Chromexcel horse front skived down some more for the pockets, and lined the zippered pockets with pigskin. Stitched with Tiger thread. Made a couple of mistakes - didn't measure twice on the location of the closure snap and one of the zippers I didn't leave long enough so the end is popping out a little bit.

Fellow firefighter here - what weight of leather did you use for the suspenders? Would like to do a set as a project when I get better.
