Mk I Olive

$145.00

The MK1 Olive Waxy brings a rugged, earth-toned aesthetic to the lineup. Using a 3oz Badalassi Carlo Waxy leather in a deep olive drab, this edition is for those who want a military-inspired, field-ready look that still carries the refined DNA of Italian leathercraft.

The Materials

  • 100% Badalassi Carlo Waxy (Olive): This 3oz vegetable-tan hide is steeped in traditional oils and waxes. The Olive colorway is incredibly rich, featuring a forest-green base that reveals hidden depths as it ages.

  • Striking Pull-Up: The "Waxy" finish provides a high-contrast pull-up effect. When the wallet is flexed or handled, the oils move to reveal lighter, mossy undertones, giving the piece a weathered, three-dimensional character.

  • Tonal Braided Thread: Hand-stitched with a premium matte thread that matches the earthy olive tones. The non-waxed finish keeps the stitch lines sharp and clean, allowing the unique grain of the leather to stand out.

  • Signature Edges: Hand-sanded and burnished to a mirror-smooth, natural finish. The contrast between the dark olive face and the natural-toned edges highlights the premium 3oz construction.

Technical Specifications

  • Dimensions (Closed): 3.125" W x 4.25" H

  • Profile Thickness: ~0.35" (Slim-profile, front-pocket carry)

  • Leather Weight: 3oz (approx. 1.2mm)

  • Construction: 100% Hand-Saddle Stitched for lifelong durability.

  • Capacity: 4 vertical card slots + 1 thumb-slide ID window.

  • Signature Branding: Features the Schaefer Atelier "Small Batch" hallmark deep-etched into the ID window.

The Evolution

The Olive Waxy edition starts with a distinct, matte "tactical" feel. As it breaks in, the leather will polish itself through daily use, darkening into a deep, glossy forest green. The "pull-up" areas will continue to shift and move, ensuring no two wallets ever look the same after six months of carry.
