Challenging the Notion of Thinness

Fill a wallet and it gets thick—
That's a universally accepted truth.
The Hitoe® L-zip L challenges this notion.

Thin long wallet Hitoe® L-zip L Liscio 4 colors
A long wallet that challenges the notion of thinness: Hitoe® L-zip L

A thin long wallet, even when fully packed

|Wallet thickness increases due to overlapping cards

Most conventional long wallets are designed with cards arranged in a single row.
All cards overlap in the center, and with the addition of dividers and gussets, the thickness increases.

Cards overlap and increase thickness in conventional wallets

|Less than half the thickness: the "double card pocket"

Since 2019, SYRINX has tackled this structural challenge with the "double card pocket."
Our unique layout (registered design), which disperses cards to two locations on the left and right, reduces overlap by half.
Furthermore, by combining this with the Hitoe® structure, where cards do not overlap with coins, we have achieved a seemingly contradictory design: "thin even when packed."

In the Hitoe structure long wallet, cards are dispersed and thin (registered design)

|Only 10mm thick, even when packed

By minimizing overlapping leather,
the thickness is only 10mm even when storing [8 cards, 10 bills, 10 coins].
Even with 16 cards, it's 13mm.
The bottom always remains 10mm.

When storing 16 cards, maintains thinness even when packed

Most conventional wallets lose their shape with just a few cards.
The Hitoe® L-zip L maintains its thinness and beautiful form even when fully packed.

For ultimate thinness, usability, and beauty

The 2025 model of the Hitoe® L-zip L is 1mm narrower and 3mm shorter.
Yet, it has more internal space than before.

To achieve seemingly conflicting goals, the internal structure was fundamentally redesigned.
New technologies have been introduced into every pocket.

  • SmartFit (top card pocket)
  • Floating U (coin pocket)
  • Under U (side card pocket)
  • Twist-in (common to all card pockets)
  • WrapEdge (bill pocket)

(* Patent applications for SmartFit, Floating U, and Twist-in have been filed.)

|SmartFit - Top card pocket

A variable structure that optimizes thickness according to the number of cards.
It fits neatly without wasted space, whether you have 1 card or 8.
It keeps the bill pocket wide, providing comfortable usability.

|Floating U - Coin pocket

U-shaped structure with fixed top edge.
To keep it thin, it's important not to accumulate coins.
It's easy to see inside and take out coins smoothly without opening it wide.
Naturally encourages organizing coins.

Neatly stores up to 8 cards without force.
Maintains a beautiful line.

|Twist-in

A user-friendly structure for both right-handed and left-handed individuals.
Lightly twisting the card opens the pocket, allowing the first card to be inserted smoothly.

|WrapEdge - Bill pocket

Bills are placed on the side with the wrapping structure, not sewn together.
They slide in smoothly, are less likely to get caught in the zipper, and allow for more bills to be stored.
An additional leather lining enhances comfort, texture, and durability.

Other improvements

|Perfect minimalism with nothing wasted

Many long wallets feature a design that opens wide to allow access to coins at the bottom.
However, coins accumulate at the bottom, distorting the shape and ruining the silhouette.

The Hitoe® L-zip L has a structure that allows access to everything without opening wide.
It has no unnecessary parts, doesn't add thickness, and features a perfected minimalist design.

Internal structure with no overlapping gusset parts whatsoever
All contents are accessible without opening wide

|Double zipper for optimized operation

Special structure with sliders on both ends.
Open only the necessary side for immediate access.
No need to fully open the zipper every time.
Uses YKK's top-tier 'EXCELLA®' zipper.

Quick access to coins without fully opening the zipper

|Original design pull tab

Despite its minimalist shape, it allows for attaching straps and charms.
SYRINX's philosophy is embedded in even the smallest details.

|Square shape for creating space

The square bottom maximizes internal space.
There are no internal parts within approximately 1cm from the bottom, eliminating elements other than cards.
As a result, the shape is neat, and both thinness and beauty are achieved.

|Ample storage capacity, fits even a passport

The Hitoe® L-zip L serves as an extremely thin long wallet for everyday use.
But it's not just thin. It also offers the flexibility to neatly organize essentials like passports, bank passbooks, various tickets, and even keys in various situations.

Versatile enough to fit a passport despite its compact size

When storing a passport, the maximum number of cards is 10.
If you put in an AirTag or keys, the coin capacity will slightly decrease.
However, this optimal balance preserves its thinness and elegant appearance.

High versatility for use in any situation, from daily life to international travel, while remaining perfectly organized.
This is the new face of the Hitoe® L-zip L as a "smart organizer."

About Liscio Leather
