Volvo Leather Key Sleeve - Hand Made in Sweden

Post by Katten »

I’ve made these Leather key sleeves for SPA and P3 chassie Volvos (R-key/Flip key also available). They are made from nice, high quality leather to protect the key, yet easy to use.

I make each one by hand here in Sweden from quality vegetable tanned leather from the Italian tannery Carlo Badalassi. Hand sewn with waxed linnen thread, keyring and screwpost are made from Stainless steel.

Available in Black, Olive Green and Dark Brown. Purple and Orange/brown-ish colors available soon. The Swedish flag is sewn into the side on each key sleeve.

Price is $55 plus international tracked shipping and PayPal fees, usually sums up to around $17. Buyers protection is included for peace of mind.

Looks nice and good functionality.

Swedish Reindeer leather is thin and smooth yet very strong. Swedish made from local materials might be something to consider. Lots of people do Italian leather but Swedish Reindeer leather would stand apart.

Product idea. Could you make these more universal, like for a p80 key , and perhaps have a pocket for a tile or apple chip?

My price point for that would be about $100 if a single letter could be embossed, too.

Hi! Yes I do think that can be made :), could you send me a picture of the key and we can discuss details. I can sketch some designs for you.
