Challenging conventional wisdom about thinness

The more you put things in your wallet, the thicker it gets.
It's common sense that no one questions.
Hitoe® L-zip L challenges this conventional wisdom.

A slim long wallet that can hold a lot of items

| Wallets are thick due to stacked cards

A typical long wallet is designed to store cards in a horizontal row.
In this format, all the cards overlap in the center.
Furthermore, the leather dividers and gussets overlap, making the wallet thick and bulky.

| Double card pockets, less than half the thickness

Since 2019, SYRINX has been tackling this structural challenge with its "double card pocket."
The unique layout (registered design) distributes the cards to two locations, left and right, reducing overlapping of cards by half.
Furthermore, by combining it with the ^Hitoe® structure, which does not overlap with coins, we have achieved a seemingly contradictory structure that "remains thin even when stored."

｜Only 10mm when stored

In addition, the amount of overlapping leather is kept to a minimum.
Even when storing [8 cards, 10 bills, and 10 coins], the thickness is only 10mm.
Even if you increase the number of cards to 16, it's still only 13mm.
The bottom is only 10mm.

A typical long wallet will bulge even if you store just a few cards in it.
Hitoe® L-zip L remains slim and maintains its beautiful shape even when fully loaded.

Aiming for ultimate thinness, ease of use, and beauty

The 2025 model of Hitoe® L-zip L is not only more compact than before.
To achieve the ultimate in thinness, ease of use, and beauty, we completely redesigned the internal components and incorporated new technology into all pockets.
(* Three new design registration applications have been filed: SmartFit, Floating U, and Twist-in.)

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

| SmartFit - Top card pocket

Variable structure that optimizes thickness depending on the number of sheets.
Whether you have one or eight cards, it fits neatly without any wasted space.
It does not put pressure on the bill pocket and is comfortable to use.

| Floating U - Coin pocket

U-shaped structure with fixed top end.
The key to keeping your wallet thin is to avoid accumulating coins.
Even without opening it wide, you can easily see inside and take things out.
It naturally supports how to use coins without hoarding them.

| Under U - Side card pocket

Card pocket located below the coin pocket.
Depending on the number of cards, up to 8 cards can be stored neatly without any waste.

｜Twist-in

Designed for ease of use for both right-handed and left-handed users.
Simply turn the card gently to open the pocket, allowing you to easily insert the first card.

| WrapEdge - Bill pocket

The edges of the bill pocket are not stitched together, but wrap around to encase the bill.
It is easy to insert bills deep into the wallet, allowing for ample storage capacity.
Leather lining has also been added to improve comfort, texture, and durability.

Other improvements

| Perfect minimalism with nothing wasted

A typical long wallet opens wide to allow access to coins stored at the back.
However, it is still difficult to handle, and the coins that accumulate at the bottom ruin the wallet's silhouette.
Furthermore, it is a hassle to have to fully open the zipper every time.

Hitoe® L-zip L does not open wide.
Because you can take everything in and out quickly and smoothly without having to open it wide.

The gussets do not overlap or become thicker, resulting in a more sophisticated, minimalist design.

| Double zipper for optimal movement

It uses a special double zipper with sliders on both ends.
Just open the side you need.
There is no need to fully unzip the zipper every time.
Uses YKK's highest quality zipper, "EXCELLA®".

｜Original design pull handle

The zipper pull is an original design, and although it has a minimalist shape, you can also attach straps and charms.

| Square shape creates space

The square shape allows for efficient use of the internal space.
There are no internal parts within about 1 cm of the bottom, and nothing there except for the cards that are stored inside.
This makes it thinner than other parts and maintains a neat silhouette.

| Ample storage capacity, even enough to fit a passport

It can also neatly store your passport and bankbook.
It is useful for overseas travel and business situations, and can be used in a wide range of situations.

About Liscio Leather

Smooth and Refined Vacchetta Leather

Vacchetta leather has been handed down in the Tuscany region of Italy since the early 9th century.
Its surface is smooth and fine-grained, with an elegant and rich character that deepens in color and gloss as it ages with use.

| Compact Yet Global

Surprisingly, many currencies around the world are larger than Japan’s ¥10,000 bill or ¥500 coin.
This wallet accommodates most of them, making it comfortable to use even when traveling abroad.
