“Go out lightly without a bag!”
The “HITOE” series was created to make this wish come true.
HITOE FOLD ARIA wallet is thin and light as air yet beautiful and very original.
It was made in pursuit of minimalism, ease of use and high-capacity storage suitable for a cashless society.
Conventional wallets get thicker because the cards and coins overlap. The solution to this is “HITOE (single layer) Structure”. It prevents cards and coins from overlapping. And there is only 4~5 layers of leather overlapping each other.
Even when storing 5 bills and 5 cards, this wallet will be only 10mm-thin. It is also extremely light - only about 33g.
We invented the "Corner holder" that hooks onto the cards to be stored. (Patent in process) It keeps the flap closed while preventing the cards from falling out unexpectedly.
Nothing extra sticks out, such as metal parts or bands, so there is no catching in your pocket and clothes are never damaged.
We pursued usability so that each movement can be completed with the least amount of action.
Made entirely of vegetable-tanned leather and manufactured with Japanese traditional craftsmanship.
