Will my passport fit the Popov Leather Passport Holder?

Yes. The cover is a universal passport fit, sized to hold any standard passport. The holder can also carry two passports side by side for family travel. Dimensions closed are 4.1 inches wide by 5.7 inches high by 0.4 inches thick, which matches the outer dimensions of the passport booklets issued by most countries.

How many cards does the passport holder hold?

Two card slots that easily fit up to 6 cards total (typically 3 per slot). Customers use the slots for a credit card, a Global Entry or Nexus card, a driver's license, and a vaccine card. The main billfold is wide enough to hold boarding passes and folded cash in any currency alongside the passport itself.

What kind of leather is the passport holder made from?

Full-grain leather, the strongest layer of the hide and the only grade that develops a true patina. Our current supplier is Seidel, a North American tannery. Full-grain leather softens and darkens with use, unlike coated or bonded passport wallets which crack and peel after a few trips.

Does a vaccine card fit inside the passport holder?

Yes. A standard CDC vaccine card measures roughly 4 by 3 inches and folds in half to fit comfortably inside the main billfold alongside the passport. Some customers tuck the folded card into one of the two card slots instead. Both approaches are fine and neither stretches the leather.

Is the passport holder slim enough to fit inside a jacket pocket?

Yes. Closed dimensions are 4.1 by 5.7 by 0.4 inches, which sits flat inside the inside-breast pocket of a suit jacket, sport coat, or travel blazer. The cover is also discreet: there is no flashy branding on the outside, only a small hand-embossed Popov mark on the interior.

Is the leather passport holder water-resistant?

The full-grain leather is water-resistant, not waterproof. Light rain, sweat in a jacket pocket, or the occasional splash will not damage the cover and will simply darken the leather into a deeper patina. Avoid full soaking in pools or ocean water. If the cover does get wet, let it air-dry at room temperature, away from direct heat.

How do I clean and care for a leather passport holder?

Wipe the exterior down with a slightly damp cloth to remove dust or splash marks. Once or twice a year, rub a pea-sized amount of leather conditioner into the panels with a soft cloth to keep the hide supple. Do not use saddle soap, mink oil, or household cleaners on the leather. The cover is backed by our lifetime guarantee: if the leather or stitching ever fails, we repair or replace it free of charge.

Q: Is the passport holder stitched by hand?

Yes. Every passport holder is saddle-stitched by hand using the two-needle method with Ritza 25 Tiger thread from Julius Koch, widely regarded as the strongest hand-stitching thread available. If any single stitch ever breaks, the rest hold, so a saddle-stitched cover cannot unravel the way a machine lockstitch can.

"Holds notebook or passport, cards are snug, smells great and stitching is great, too. Very happy." - Eric L.

We cut every Leather Passport Holder from full-grain leather, the strongest layer of the hide. Our current supplier is Seidel, a North American tannery that supplies Popov with consistent, top-of-hide cuts.

Full-grain leather is the only grade that develops a true patina: scars, marbling, and subtle colour shifts that make each cover one-of-a-kind.

Unlike coated or bonded passport wallets that crack and peel after a few trips, this leather only looks better with age. A few dozen flights in, your cover will be softer, darker, and moulded to the paperwork you carry.

Saddle-Stitched by Hand

Every Leather Passport Holder is saddle-stitched by hand using the two-needle method. We use Ritza 25 Tiger thread from Julius Koch, a braided, lightly waxed polyester thread widely regarded as the strongest hand-stitching thread available.

Saddle stitching means if any single stitch ever breaks, the rest hold, so the cover cannot unravel the way a machine lockstitch can.

Paired with hand-burnished edges and a slim two-piece interior, this is a passport cover built to outlast the passport it protects. Backed by our lifetime guarantee.
