Thin bundle wallets
A long wallet without a coin pocket is called a " taba-ire ".
A thin taba-ire even when 12 cards are stored in the six pockets
That is the Hitoe® Sextet.
Stored but still thin
The six card pockets do not overlap each other, and the " Hitoe® (single) structure " achieves thinness.
Thickness when 12 cards are stored: 9mm
・Size 178 x 92mm
Each card pocket can hold 1~2 cards, up to 12 cards.
Minimalist design
Core material for the cards to be stored
The Hitoe® Sextet is designed to be thin by taking advantage of the full-length card pocket and using the stored cards as a core material.
The space between the cards is slightly bent to flexibly accommodate deformation and prevent damage to the cards.
Pursuit of thinness
The edges are not "rolled in" but have a "seam allowance. This is in pursuit of thinness. Wrapping the card into the bag will make the size smaller, but the overlap of the leather will increase, making the bag thicker. This is a detail that is faithful to the ideal we should aim for.
Also, when rolled up, the card tends to get caught on the edge of the leather, but in the case of the seam allowance, it does not get caught and is smooth.
Long and beautiful use
Most problems with wallets are caused by hardware and sewing. We do not use any hardware. Corners and edges, which are prone to damage, are covered with layers of outer and inner leather to increase durability. Furthermore, no stitches are used on the folded parts that are subject to friction.
The stitching allowance is as small as possible, and the design prevents the product from losing its shape.
Beautiful details
Precise and delicate stitches, carefully polished leather on the dyed surface, smooth floor surface, and fine lines (nenpiki) drawn around the edges with a hot iron. We pursue beauty down to the smallest detail.
Banknotes remain in place
The banknote pocket opens wide for smooth access.
Partner with Hitoe® Fold
Hitoe® Fold can hold up to 7 cards.
However, if you have too many cards and Hitoe® Fold is not enough...
then the Hitoe® Sextet is the perfect partner.
The two together can hold up to 7+12=19 cards.
Put your receipts, important cards you don't want to stack, and cards you don't use often in the Hitoe® Sextet and put them in your bag.
For money and cards that you carry with you, put them in the Hitoe® Fold and put them in your pocket.
It makes going out even more comfortable.
For those with a few less cards, we also offer the Hitoe® Quartet with 8 card capacity.

Smoothly textured vacchetta leather
The leather used is vacchetta leather, which has been used in the Tuscany region of Italy since the early 9th century. The leather is tanned with vegetable tannin and soaked with oil slowly, so you can enjoy its almost permanent moisture and luster.
The silver surface is smooth and fine, with a natural color variation due to the dye finish, giving the leather an elegant and tasteful look.
The aging process of vacchetta leather stands out among other Italian leathers, and the color and luster deepen beautifully.
(For a detailed description of the leather, click on the "Material" tab.)
Usage Notes
The card pocket has no gusset. Instead, it is made of thinly processed rubbed leather that easily expands and contracts.
Since there is no room in the dimensions, it is a little tight at first, but you will soon get used to it, and once you do, it will fit just right and be comfortable to use.
Also, the leather is designed to close snugly when it is acclimated, so the lid may open a little even if it is initially closed.
About the leather used
About the leather usedOrigins
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.
