The Leather Gift Guide: What to Buy When You Are Not Sure
Unsized, unmonogrammed, and appropriate for almost anyone: the safe leather gifts.
Buy unsized
Belts and shoes require sizing you probably do not know. Card holders, passport covers and key holders fit everyone, which makes them the reliable choice.
Choose vegetable-tanned for a personal gift
Veg-tan darkens according to who carries it. Six months after you give it, the piece looks like theirs and no one else's. That is the closest leather gets to being personalised without a monogram.
Skip the monogram unless you are certain
Monogrammed pieces cannot be exchanged and not everyone wants initials on their everyday carry. If in doubt, include the monogram service as an option rather than applying it.
