No. 18 Personalized Leather Folder

This well-designed, personalized leather padfolio will upgrade your most important business meetings from day one.

Made in the Col. Littleton Workshop, this 12” H x 9.5” W polished leather folder is just the right size for business or pleasure.

When you buy this full-grain leather folio you’re buying American, vegetable-tanned steer hide that has received a minimum of alteration. 

The way I see it, leather tells a story and over-processing robs the piece of its life and character. Our natural leather changes and evolves over the years. It develops a wonderful patina and gives you the rich, lived-in look of antique leather goods. The longer you carry it, the better it looks and feels.

– Colonel Littleton

Leather in its natural state is not static – it breathes and has life and is pliable if you don’t process the life out of it. 

  • Two-position solid brass snap front allows room for carrying extra documents.
  • The front may be personalized with three initials in lower, right corner.  Initials personalized First, Middle, Last.
  • Portfolio’s inside front pocket holds extra 8.5” x 11” documents and includes a business card pocket.
  • Accommodates standard 8.5” x 11” ruled pad which can easily be replaced.  Leather folio comes with the Colonel’s specially-designed Memorandum Pad which may be reordered.
  • Available in vintage brown or black with brown trim polished leather 
  • Made in Col. Littleton leather workshop in Lynnville, TN USA. Edge stitched.
  • Quality Assurance Guarantee: 100% Warranty

  1. Was very impressed with the quality. It’s natural, heavy in all the right ways. I work in the legal industry, and anytime I head to the courthouse, I’m confident and professional in the environment carrying this with me. I’ve received compliments from random strangers each and every time.

  2. I purchased 9 of these as appreciation gifts for team members. Customer Support helped me get a custom logo & their initials stamped. Everyone was super helpful and easy to work with. Service was extremely fast! Once they arrived, I opened all of them and each time I pulled one out of the bag I was able to smile at how great they looked!

  3. My wife gave me a #18 Portfolio 3 for Christmas, 2019. Not being fond of saying I love inanimate objects, I really, really, really like my portfolio. I have since given one to a nephew and he too, seems to like his quite well. My portfolio is used everyday and is gaining a wonderful patina, coffee stains and all.
    My portfolio is already Stellar and I continue to Strive to be Stellar everyday!

  4. Last few years I have been trying to replace my regular and every day use items with quality stuff. My portfolios were next up on the list. These are by far the best quality that I have found. Being from a small Appalachian town much like the Col. I feel like I know him. He reminds me so much of the down to earth, kind, small town neighbors that I call friends. I am ecstatic with the quality and beauty of the ports that I got today! Lord willing, I will certainly be a repeat customer!

  5. Just purchased the No. 18 portfolio in black with brown trim. Another masterpiece from the Colonel! Already gotten a lot of compliments and couldn’t be more pleased. And I own every No. 18 in the collection now! Great work, Colonel.

Our Warranty

We are committed to producing quality, handcrafted products that showcase our time-honored standards of excellence and deep respect for the Americana tradition. Col. Littleton products go through rigorous testing and numerous quality inspections before being shipped to our customers. Should you receive a Col. Littleton product that is defective in materials or workmanship, you can count on us to make it right. Our guarantee is limited to the cost of the product itself. It also does not cover normal wear and tear. We feel if you just plain “wore it out,” you got your money’s worth. Also, we cannot be responsible for an item which has suffered through alteration, damage due to improper cleaning, improper use, mishandling or accident. If we made a mistake in personalizing your product or if the product is defective in materials or workmanship, of course we’ll replace it. Otherwise, personalized products are not returnable.

Our Leather

Leather is a passion for me. There are more kinds of leather and leather processing out there than you can shake a stick at. You can mold leather into just about any shape or form. You can make every hide look just alike. You can dye it green, blue or even pink. You can apply a finish, coat it, spray it or make it look slick and shiny. That’s not what we’re about at Col. Littleton. To me the beauty is in the naturalness of the leather. People always comment to me about the special “feel” of our leather and how it becomes even more beautiful after it has some wear on it. It’s all about our leather process. When you buy Col. Littleton leather goods, you’re buying, for the most part, full-grain American vegetable-tanned steer hide that has received a minimum of alteration. We don’t apply a finish to hide character markings. The way I see it, every marking tells a story and covering them robs the piece of its life and character.

Our Craftsmanship

I see a real resurgence in the country today for products made in America. Our focus is to design and create products that speak to the time-honored traditions that have made this country great such as handmade craftsmanship, authentic rich leathers and quality workmanship. There’s a nostalgic feel about the products we make . . . most of them could have been made 100 years ago and many are made using turn-of-the-20th-century methodology and machinery. Our products are true Americana; forged as our forefathers intended by people who care and take pride in making a beautiful product.
