  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Apparently it's a trend that most men just receive wallets rather than buying them

I have never bought a wallet for myself. Someone in my life has always gifted me one when it gets raggedy. I was thinking of taking up leather working as a hobby to make my own, but it looks hard.

I found leather working to be relatively easy and fun. I guess it depends on what your goals are. I'm planning to get back into it during the holiday break.

Cutting, gluing, and sewing are the basics. After that, you can get into fun stuff like dying and embossing.

And compared to what nice finished leather sells for, it's cheap.

Could be fun, thanks for the reply.
