MANHATTAN Card Wallet
【 Inspiration 】
The Manhattan cocktail first appeared in 1875, during an imaginative era of a bustling metropolis. It was a time of hot air balloon travel, experimental underground railways, and the construction of the Brooklyn Bridge... These historic images seemed to merge with the taste of the cocktail itself.
When designing the Manhattan wallet, we aimed to incorporate all-encompassing elements and contemplate how an elegant leather accessory can transition from the past to the present and endure into the future. Will we still carry coins? Will the use of paper bills continue to decline? With these questions in mind, we conceived this small leather accessory that combines the functions of a cardholder and a small coin purse, providing ample space for business cards and the convenience of carrying a few bills.
【 Slim 】
Our goal is to create a "mini wallet" that can hold cards and folded bills, catering to the habit of carrying less cash among urban dwellers. It is also designed to fit easily into pockets, making it slim and lightweight.
【Card Protection】
Standard cards are as long as 9cm, which is 5mm longer than regular credit cards, causing them to wrinkle when placed in typical card slots. Therefore, we intentionally designed each card slot wider to ensure sufficient and reliable protection for your cards.
【Hardware 】
The wallet features reinforced corners with metal fittings to prevent wear and tear and maintain its aesthetic appeal. The flap-style opening provides secure protection for your belongings without the need for zippers or buttons. With high-density, durable, and dirt-resistant leather, the wallet allows for easy access to cards while providing the flexibility you desire.
