Seriously Thin Wallets

Ball and Buck Set Out to Create the Perfect Wallet

Most men would agree that their wallet has a less than perfect design, which is why Mark Bollman, founder and president of Ball and Buck, set out to create The Perfect Wallet.

Bollman wanted it to be light and compact, yet extremely durable. After creating the initial designs, finding the right materials was imperative. Ball and Buck sourced the leather from the same tannery as Red Wing Boots® in Minnesota. The results were beautifully tanned, perfectly sized and amazingly well-priced wallets that are 100% made in America. To top it all off, each one carries a lifetime guarantee. You can get your own American-made Perfect Wallet at half price by making a pledge on the Ball and Buck Kickstarter page.
