Genuine Black Stingray Gothic Cross Biker Wallet — Trifold
SKU: 3881
A gothic cross is cut through the front of this wallet, and genuine stingray fills the opening from behind. Oversized white pearl beads run in a single file down its vertical arm, while the horizontal arms stay nearly black. The surrounding cowhide is deeply wrinkled, and two flame-swirl conchos secure the flap. The Genuine Black Stingray Gothic Cross Biker Wallet is a trifold at 4¾″ × 3⅝″ closed. Inside are nine card slots, a bill compartment and a zippered coin pocket, with a .925 sterling silver grommet for a chain.
Who This Is Actually For
If you want the motif built into the leather — the cross is cut out of the cowhide itself, with the stingray set behind the opening. Four hooked curls of cowhide reach into the beads near the crossbar. Best for riders who like a design they can trace with a finger.
If you carry mostly cards — nine card slots sit alongside a single bill compartment, so plastic outnumbers currency here. The entire body measures under five inches tall. Best for card-heavy carry in a back pocket.
If your wallet rides on a chain — the sterling grommet is set at one end of the spine, on the edge opposite the conchos. Any tug on the chain pulls at the fold, away from the snaps. Best for anyone who clips to a belt loop daily.
What It's Like to Carry (The Honest Take)
The stingray inside the cross carries two distinct tones. Roughly a dozen oversized white beads form the pearl row along the vertical arm. The surrounding smaller beads graduate from pale gray in the center to nearly black at the crossbar tips.
The cowhide is the rougher of the two materials. Its irregular ridges stand up like crumpled paper and reflect grayish highlights under direct light. Beside it, the stingray feels hard, dense and evenly beaded. Continuous stitching follows the entire outline of the cross, curls included.
Both conchos are domed castings with open, swirling flame shapes. Their recesses are darkened, which separates the raised tongues visually. They are the actual closure, each one snapping onto a stud on the back of the zip panel.
Inside, the leather changes to a finer, pebbled black surface. Braided lacing wraps the edge of all three panels. The trifold construction does add one step at the register. Slots on the flap's inner face are accessible as soon as you unsnap it. Reaching the middle slots or the coin pocket also requires folding back the zip panel.

Questions You're Probably Asking
Is this a bifold or a trifold?
It's a trifold, with three panels laced together around the perimeter. The left panel holds a zippered coin pocket, the middle carries stacked card slots, and the cross flap has more slots inside. Closed, it measures 4¾″ × 3⅝″. The two conchos snap onto studs on the back of the zip panel.
What are the four round hooks in the cross outline?
They are part of the black cowhide, not the stingray. The cross opening is cut with four hooked curls near the crossbar, so the leather extends into the beaded surface at those points. A line of stitching runs around each curl and along the rest of the outline, giving the cross its curling gothic silhouette.
Is the inside the same wrinkled leather as the outside?
No, the interior uses a different leather. The deeply wrinkled black cowhide covers the outside, including the back of the zip panel that folds in under the flap. The card slots and pockets are faced in a finer, pebbled black leather. Hand-braided lacing wraps the edge of all three panels, so the border looks the same open or closed.
