Hitoe® Sextet - Liscio - with one card per pocket

The current Hitoe® Sextet - Liscio - model can hold up to 12 cards.
In fact, during its development, we had prepared to release a 6-card version, but we changed the specifications to 12 cards and canceled the sale of the 6-card version. We are now selling the products from that time.

The current model is designed to hold two cards in each pocket, but this 6-card version is designed to hold one card in each pocket. (The card pockets are initially tight even with one card.)
This specification is more suitable for those who want to store their important cards separately, one by one.

Thin Card Case (Billfold)

A long wallet without a coin pocket is called a "billfold."
This is a thin billfold that holds 6 cards in 6 pockets.

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.

Thin even when stored

The "Hitoe® (single) structure" with six card pockets that do not overlap achieves its thinness.
・Thickness of 7.5mm when storing 6 cards and 10 bills
・Size 175 x 92mm
You can store one card in each card pocket, up to a maximum of 6 cards.

Minimalist design

Using stored cards as core material

Hitoe® Sextet utilizes its full card pockets to use the stored cards as core material. This enables its thin design.
Even when placed in a pocket, the slight curve in the gaps between the cards allows it to flexibly conform to the body. The cards themselves are less likely to bend, preventing damage.

Pursuit of thinness

The edges are not "wrapped" but have a "seam allowance." This is to pursue "thinness." While wrapping would make the size smaller, it would increase the leather overlap and make it thicker. This detail is faithful to the ideal we aim for.
Also, wrapping can make cards snag on the leather edge, but with a seam allowance, they slide smoothly without snagging.

Long-lasting beauty

Most wallet problems are caused by hardware or stitching. We use no hardware at all. Vulnerable corners and edges are reinforced by layering the outer and inner leather for durability. Furthermore, no stitching is used on the bending parts that receive friction.
The seam allowance is as small as possible, and the design resists losing its shape.

Beautiful details

Precise and delicate stitching, carefully polished edges (cross-section of the leather) after dyeing, smooth flesh side (back of the leather), and a fine line (creasing) made with a heated iron along the edge. We pursue beauty in every detail.

Bills remain flat

The bill pocket opens wide, allowing for smooth insertion and removal.

A partner for Hitoe® Fold

Hitoe® Fold can store up to 7 cards.
However, "I have too many cards, and Hitoe® Fold isn't enough..."
For those individuals, this Hitoe® Sextet will be the best partner.

Combined, you can store a maximum of 7+6=13 cards.
Put accumulating receipts, important cards you don't want to overlap, and infrequently used cards in the Hitoe® Sextet and place it in your bag.
Keep money and cards you carry daily in the Hitoe® Fold and place it in your pocket.

Going out will be even more comfortable.

Usage precautions

The card pockets do not have gussets. Instead, thinly processed, pliable, rubbed leather is used.
Since there is no extra space, it will be tight at first but will quickly adapt, and once it adapts, it will fit perfectly and be comfortable to use.

Also, it is designed to close snugly once the leather adapts, so initially, the lid may open slightly even when closed.

About Smooth Leather

Origins

Liscio, Italian for "smooth." Its surface is smooth and fine-grained, with natural color variations and natural marks, giving it a sophisticated and rich leather-like appearance.

Tanning and Manufacturing

"Vacchetta leather" is a traditional Italian leather tanning technique from Tuscany, dating back to the early 9th century. Cowhide is tanned with vegetable tannins extracted from chestnut and mimosa, then slowly infused with oil and finished with dye. The internal oils gradually emerge with use, deepening its color and luster.
LWG (Leather Working Group) environmental certification: Silver rank.

Maintenance

Due to the sufficient oil content, oil treatment is not necessary unless you are concerned about scratches or dryness. For daily care, we recommend wiping with a soft, dry cloth or brushing. For more details, please refer here.
