Walleroo - Kangaroo & Emu Minimalist Wallet

Ruggedly Elegant, Authentically Australian. Designed by Cape Woolamai, crafted by Adori Leathergoods, the Walleroo is the minimalist wallet you have been looking for. Thin, light, soft, supple, and comfortable to carry in a front pocket. A true wallet with individual card slots, ID pocket, and full-size currency pocket. Selected for their light weight, exceptional strength, luxurious look & feel, this Walleroo combines ruggedly elegant, Australian Kangaroo Nappa and Emu leathers to create this handsome statement piece.

1/2 the weight and twice the strength of cow hide. Kangaroo leather is thinner, lighter, softer, more supple, and stronger than a comparable cow hide; resulting in a lighter, softer, more supple Wallet, which does not become such a brick in your pocket or purse.

360-Degree grain means no “breaking in” or losing form. As rugged as the environment in which they live, Kangaroo leather has many surprisingly beneficial characteristics. A unique 360-degree grain structure allows Kangaroo leather to stretch in all directions. By using Kangaroo for the interior, the Walleroo will stand up to the wear and tear of daily life, for years to come.

Independent testing confirms Kangaroo lasts longer. Comparative testing done by the CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization) has determined that the tight fiber structure and greater tensile strength of Kangaroo leather delivers up to 3 times the wear life as a comparable Bovine (Cow) leather.

Responsibly sourced to conserve this National Treasure. The Kangaroo is a symbol of Australia. But, a lack of natural predators can contribute to over-population, exhaustion of food & water supplies, starvation, and disease. Threatening the very survival of these amazing creatures. Kangaroo populations are monitored and managed under a strict, federally controlled, culling program. It is from this conservation program that Adori’s Kangaroo leather is legally and responsibly sourced.

What is Kangaroo Nappa, and Why Should You Care? Nappa Leather – the real Roo – is a full grain leather, tanned in a manner to produce an extremely smooth, soft, and strong finish. Starting with the highest-grade leather, this unique tanning process produces a finish which is both extremely durable, and more resistant to fading. The surface of the leather is not modified, retaining its original textures and markings. Like a fingerprint, no two wallets will be exactly the same. Light, soft, supple, durable, resistant to fading, while retaining the natural character of the leather; Kangaroo Nappa is the ideal leather for crafting the finest in Life accessories.

The Emu leather exterior is equally light and soft, with excellent elasticity, toughness, and extreme durability. Emu’s distinctive pebbled texture comes from the follicles from the Emu’s feathers. For its superior quality and magnificent look, Emu is considered the peer of Crocodile, Ostrich, or Snakeskin for crafting luxurious and enduring Life accessories.

Less than 10% makes the grade to bear the Adori & Cape Woolamai names. Not all Kangaroo and Emu leather is equal. And not all leathers measure up to Adori’s standards. Kangaroos live a life as rough and rugged as the land on which they live. They must contend with times of deprivation, drought, and disease. Living in the wild, in one of the toughest climates on the planet, these uniquely Australian creatures get scratched and scarred from encounters with rocks, other animals, and the rest of their environment. Their leather can become thin, scratched, or scarred, which can leave weak spots, and unwanted blemishes. The experts at Adori inspect every inch of leather, for the less than 10% which makes the grade to bear the Adori – and Cape Woolamai -- name.
