The Coach 'Baseball Glove Wallets' have found a purpose for old athletic gear. Now sold in a limited edition of 200 pieces, each of these pocketbooks is crafted of vintage baseball gloves, many of which date back to the 1940s.
The stitching strewn across the front of the pocketbooks here is instantly reminiscent of days spent at the ball park. These goods are also different from one another in their own distinct ways, some sporting nicks, scratches and discoloration based on their past lives. This distinctive quality is one that is often sought after by consumers in search of original products with a story, and this is exactly what is offered here. Each billfold is also made of approximately 1.5 gloves, making them a rather sturdy investment.
