Members Wulfing Posted March 9, 2017 Members Report Posted March 9, 2017 I've just had a delivery of some lovely pigskin suede (suede both sides. It's beautiful and soft, I cant imagine a material that would feel better for lining wallets. My question is that I'm a bit paranoid that the edges of the suede will fray or go fuzzy over time? Will this happen or will the suede hold its shape? Do I need to do something like put glue on the top of the edges or treat them somehow or will it just hold its shape? Also when I burnish the leather edges wil this affect the suede as the burnishing tool may come into contact with it? Thanks for any advice :-) Quote
Members wlg190861 Posted March 9, 2017 Members Report Posted March 9, 2017 You don't want to use suede as a wallet linner you will rip your bills trying to get them out of the wallet, you want a smooth liner. Quote
Members thefanninator Posted March 9, 2017 Members Report Posted March 9, 2017 If you're gonna use suede you probably want to paint the edges. Here's a long wallet made entirely of suede. I think the edges were painted. Quote
