Small thin long wallet
Hitoe® L-zip L - Liscio - v.2021
Small thin wallet
The width of Hitoe® L-zip L is 17cm, almost the same as a 10,000 yen bill.
But its shortness isn't its only feature.
This long wallet features a Hitoe® structure that distributes the contents rather than stacking them, making it extremely slim .
That is "Hitoe® L-zip L".
Eye-catching thinness
Wallets become thick because the items stored inside overlap. The Hitoe® (single) structure solves this problem.
With two card pockets and no stacking of coins, it is about half the thickness of a typical wallet.
When storing 10 cards, the thickness is approximately 9mm.
Even when storing 20 sheets, the thickness is only about 13 mm .
We'll take a closer look at the reason behind this striking thinness.
Cards become thicker due to overlapping
When you put cards side by side in a small long wallet, they all overlap in the center . In addition, there are leather dividers between the cards, which increases the overlap of the leather.
This won't make your wallet thinner.
Thinness: about half
The two card pockets of the Hitoe® L-zip L do not overlap at all. (Design registered)
This cuts the thickness of the card in half , and there are only four overlapping layers of leather .
As a result, your wallet will be roughly half as thick as if your cards were lined up in a single row.
Thinness brings comfort
SYRINX wallets are designed to be as thin as possible .
This is because we believe that something that is not bulky makes it comfortable, easy to use, and above all, beautiful.
Hitoe® L-zip L maintains a beautiful silhouette without altering it.
Passports and bankbooks
Although it is a small long wallet, it is versatile enough to hold a bankbook and passport .
It doesn't take up much space even when filled with plenty, making it ideal as a travel wallet.
The card pocket, which opens from the top, is spacious enough to hold a ballpoint pen for your notebook.
A convenient double zipper for a smart cashless payment
It uses a special double zipper with sliders on both ends.
You can quickly access either card pocket with minimal movement. You don't have to worry about accidentally dropping coins, and you can easily take out your cards even when cashless .
Easy-to-use shallow coin pocket
The shallow coin pocket allows you to quickly find and take out the coins you need. When you close the wallet, you don't have to worry about coins spilling out. It can hold 20 coins .

Beauty in every detail
SYRINX's minimalist designs require high precision. SYRINX's attention to detail is carefully realized at domestic leather workshops with extensive experience and high technical skills.
Precise and delicate stitching, dyed and polished edges (leather edges) , a smooth surface (underside of the leather), and thin lines cut into the edges with a hot iron.
We pursue beauty down to the smallest details .
Original pull handle
The zipper puller is an original, with a custom mold made by YKK. Its simple design is made up of only straight lines and circles . It is less likely to get caught, and does not apply unnecessary force to the slider, increasing durability. The logo is engraved small on the back so that it is not noticeable . Its convex shape also acts as an anti-slip measure. When viewed from the side, the tip is thicker, the result of our focus on making it easy to grip . Although it is a small part, it embosses SYRINX's design philosophy .
Highly durable zipper Excella
The zipper, which is the key to comfort, is made with YKK's top-of-the-line zipper, "Excella." Excella zippers have extremely high dimensional precision and little play when interlocking. Therefore, when you first start using it, it may feel a bit stiff and stubborn, but it will become smoother with use .
Cheaper zippers have more dimensional play and operate more smoothly. However, they do not fit properly and can cause problems. Excella is made with each element carefully polished and made to the highest standards, so you can use it for a long time.
Smooth textured vachetta leather
Liscio means smooth in Italian. Made from traditional Vachetta leather, the color and luster deepen with use thanks to vegetable tannins and oils.

Origins
Liscio is an Italian word meaning "smooth. The surface is smooth and fine, with natural unevenness in color, giving the leather an elegant and tasteful look.
Tanning and Manufacturing
Vacchetta leather has been used in the Tuscany region of Italy since the early 9th century. The cowhide is tanned with vegetable tannin extracted from chesnut and mimosa, and then soaked in oil slowly and finished with dyes. The more the leather is used, the more the oil soaks into the leather, deepening its color and luster.
Maintenance
Since it contains sufficient oil inside, oil care is not necessary unless you are concerned about scratches or dryness. We recommend dry brushing with a soft cloth on a daily basis.
