A zip-around wallet in the long format, 21 x 11 x 2.5 cm, made from 100% synthetic material. A slate grey frame holds a printed cream and powder pink panel: a traveller reads her post at a table in a train compartment, her sticker-covered suitcase on the floor beside her.
Inside there are slots for cards, a zipped pocket for coins, full-length sections for notes and a wider space for everyday papers.
Look past the wallet for a moment and read the scene printed on it. A young woman sits at a navy table in a train compartment, a stack of handwritten pages open in her hands, her sunglasses folded beside her. A white cat is halfway across the table, a red envelope stands upright behind it, and a pale blue suitcase covered in travel stickers waits on the floor. The window gives onto blue mountains, and the background is built from old handwriting, stamps and postmarks. The wallet itself stays quiet around all of it: a soft slate grey frame, a cream and powder pink panel, and an antique brass pull at the end of the zip.
Start with the numbers, because a long wallet either slides into the bag you already carry or it does not. A full length of 21 cm takes a banknote laid flat with a little margin, which is the whole reason the format exists. If that turns out to be more than you want to carry every day, compare the other wallet formats and work back from there.

The print is not a badge stuck on the front. It covers the whole outer panel, so the wallet reads as a small picture every time you take it out. A printed synthetic surface also behaves well in a bag: it wipes clean with a barely damp cloth and it does not pick up marks the way an untreated surface would. The zip is the part you notice most in use, because nothing tips out when the wallet is opened at an angle. The same treatment runs through the label's other illustrated pieces.
Cards stand in their own slots instead of stacking on top of one another. Notes lie flat along the full length, so they come out unfolded rather than creased in half. Coins stay shut in the zipped coin pocket and never end up loose against the cards. A wider section takes the paper you keep on you: a travel ticket, a loyalty card, a receipt you still need. It is the kind of layout you read at a glance instead of digging through.
