[About Hitoe® Fold Aria -Mushroom-]
A minimalist bi-fold wallet that combines two innovative, environmentally friendly materials.
The bags are made from KINOLI™, a vegan material derived from mushrooms, and vegetable-tanned leather made from upcycled waste from meat consumption. Both are plastic-free and return to nature after use.
With the livestock industry predicted to decline, this material combination has an extremely low environmental impact, making it an ideal option for a sustainable future.
Furthermore, the Hitoe ® Fold Aria is surprisingly thin, has won numerous design awards both in Japan and overseas for its sophisticated design and high functionality. It is a sustainable wallet that offers new value in terms of both the environment and design.
