Beta version with different specifications from the current model

This model incorporates three of the five new technologies used in the current model:
・SmartFit (top card pocket)
・WrapEdge (bill pocket)
・Twist-in

Since it does not feature the Floating U (coin pocket) and Under U (side card pocket), the storage compartment is slightly tighter than that of the current model. All other specifications are the same as the current model.

We initially began mass production believing it was the finished design, but after conceiving the idea for the "Floating U," we decided to cancel the launch.
Rather than discarding the products that were already completed, we are selling them as a developmental beta version.
While some specifications differ from the current model, it incorporates key technologies that led to our current design, such as SmartFit, Twist-in, and WrapEdge.

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.

2回目の購入

紙幣ポケットを反対側のも、作って欲しい。
2020モデルで反対側にお札を入れて使用していたので、違和感があります。

再度の温かいご愛顧をいただき、心より感謝申し上げます。以前のモデルからの仕様変更により、使い心地に違和感を与えてしまい心苦しく存じます。頂戴した収納の向きに関するご要望は社内でも共有し、今後の製品づくりの参考とさせていただきます。少しでも早く手に馴染み、快適にお使いいただけるよう願っております。今後ともどうぞよろしくお願いいたします。

カード収納力が減った・・・！

厚い革＞その次のL-ZIPと使って来たのだがコイン横のカード入れ容量が減ってしまった。以前のものは軽く10枚は入っていたのに・・・世代交代はきびしいか。
ZIPタブに穴がついたのでAIRTAGはつけやすくなった

長年にわたり歴代のモデルをご愛用いただき、心より感謝申し上げます。

サイドカードポケットとコインの収納量に関しましては、前モデルとほぼ同様となり、トップカードポケットは新モデルと同仕様となっております。（つまり新モデルには及びませんが、前モデルに対しては上位互換、中間位置にあるためβバージョンとしています）

一方で、ファスナーの引き手の使い勝手について便利さを感じていただけた点は大変嬉しく思います。率直なご感想をお寄せいただき、誠にありがとうございました。
