The top of the wallet lineup. One leather. Six slots.
The Captain v5 is the largest wallet I make — a full bifold with six card slots, a full-length cash compartment, and room for everything you'd carry in a day. Currently available in one leather: Pistachio Crazy Horse. Ten pieces per stitching option. When they're gone, the next color takes their place.
The basics
- Size: 4.7" × 3.5" (12 × 9 cm) closed
- 4 quick-access card slots + 2 hidden slots = 6 total
- Full-length cash compartment
- $199 machine-stitched / $229 hand-stitched
- Made by hand in my Kyiv workshop, one at a time
How much it actually carries
Four slots sit on the outer panels for your daily cards — ID, main card, transit, backup. Two more slots hide underneath for extras you don't reach for every day. The full-length cash compartment runs the full width of the wallet, so bills go in flat without folding to fit.
Most storage of any wallet in the lineup, in a frame that still fits a front or back pocket without creating a bulge.
The leather
One leather right now: Pistachio Crazy Horse. More colors are coming — if Pistachio catches your eye, best grab it while it's here.
Crazy Horse is a waxed pull-up leather — it marks with use and most of it rubs out with your thumb. The Pistachio color starts as a muted sage green and darkens along the edges and creases as you carry it. No two age the same way.
Full-grain — the top layer of the hide, not corrected or bonded scraps. Built to outlast a few phones.
Who it's not for
If you carry fewer cards and want something simpler, the Buccaneer ($124) covers most people. If you only need cards and minimal cash, the Boatswain v3 or Venturer v2 will serve you better. The Captain is for the person who carries more and wants the best version of it.
FAQ
What's the difference between Machine-Stitched and Hand-Stitched?
Same leather, same edges, same lifetime guarantee — two different methods.
Hand-Stitched is saddle-stitched one stitch at a time. If a thread ever breaks, the seam holds and doesn't unravel. Takes longer to make, built to outlive you. Vitalii stitches every one personally.
Machine-Stitched is tight, precise, and tough. Stitched on an industrial machine in the same workshop to the same standards. The everyday choice for a wallet that gets used hard.
How many cards does the Captain v5 hold?
Six slots total — four quick-access on the outer panels and two hidden underneath. Comfortable carry is one to two cards per slot.
Will the Pistachio color change over time?
It will, and that's the point. Crazy Horse darkens along the edges and creases as you carry it. Scratches rub out with your thumb. After a year it'll look significantly different — in a good way.
Does the leather scratch?
Yes — Crazy Horse marks with use and most scratches rub out with your thumb. The pull-up effect means pressure and friction leave marks that fade or blend over time.
How do I care for it?
Keep it out of the wash. A small amount of leather conditioner once or twice a year if it looks dry. Beyond that, just carry it — the use is what makes it look good.
Who makes it and where?
I do, by hand, in my workshop in Kyiv, Ukraine. Every order ships with a handwritten note. We've shipped 7,000+ orders and earned 600+ five-star reviews.
Pick your stitching and add to cart. Ten pieces per option. Ships within a few days, handmade and ready to carry.
The Seven-Pass Polish
Most edges get one coat of paint and call it done. Ours don’t.
I learned a polishing method from an old shoemaker I met in my grandma’s village. He walked me through it once, years ago. I lost touch with him not long after. It took me 5 years to build my own compound formula around what he taught me — that part’s mine, and it’s staying that way.
Now every edge gets seven hand-polished passes before it leaves my bench. No shortcuts. No paint sealing it shut. Just leather, polished the old way, until it holds a shine on its own.
Run your thumb along it. That’s the difference.
Hey, I’m Vitalii — the maker behind Pirate Goods. I’ve been hand-stitching every wallet, sheath, and organizer in my Kyiv workshop since 2020. If anything’s ever off with your order, message me directly — I answer every email myself.
