MW-11 AL-HW ST [MINT GREEN]

[ROUND FASTENER WALLET]

It's been over 10 years since we started making round fastener wallets.
The round fastener has now become an essential staple item.
By using horse leather, we have created a wallet that is smart and lightweight without sacrificing storage capacity.
The exterior design is inspired by the connection between arcs and the vertex.
Once you start using it and fill it with your belongings, you will truly see the completed form of this wallet.

The beauty of its form stands out precisely because of its simplicity.
The fine texture and lightness of horse leather.
And the T-bar and Silver ring applied to it.
We want you to feel it too.
We made this with that in mind.

-Al (Alligator leather)-
Alligators inhabit North and Central America.
Biologically, crocodiles and alligators both belong to the order Crocodilia, but they are classified into different families: Crocodylidae and Alligatoridae, with alligators belonging to the Alligatoridae family.
Alligators have distinctive features such as much longer bodies than crocodiles and lower jaw teeth that are not visible from the outside.
In the United States, the alligator population drastically decreased in the 1960s, but has now increased to over 5 million thanks to scientific conservation programs.
Under these conservation programs, alligator handlers protect eggs, reducing the risk of natural disasters such as floods and predation by raccoons and other predators. There is a system in place where 10% of hatched eggs are released into the wild once they reach four feet in length.
Additionally, farmers and owners of wetlands where alligators live participate in this program, encouraging land maintenance by landowners and improving the environment for flora and fauna.
Alligator leather is globally recognized as a sustainable material.
This is MANIFOLD's first attempt at using this leather.

- Horse Nume HW-NATURAL -
Commissioned Shinki Hikaku, whose philosophy is to manage all processes from tanning, dyeing, and finishing in-house.
Recognized worldwide for its history, love, and pride in horse leather, it is 100% vegetable-tanned pit leather.
Even in an age where efficiency is prioritized, they continue the tradition of pit-tanning horse leather, which is the most time-consuming process.
Please enjoy the firm yet flexible texture, the polished edges that shine, and the rich luster that deepens with use, inherent in pit-tanned horse leather.

The Art of Finishing
To further enhance the wonderful inherent qualities of horse leather and the techniques of Shinki Hikaku, who have long worked with horse leather, we are now using a new finishing for some of our products.
This is currently in progress for future developments.

Each item is carefully crafted according to our manufacturing standards, which have been developed to maximize the potential of this horse leather.
