Just picture this, you’re in a meeting with a very important client who you’ve been desperate to meet for a while now. Things are going smoothly, in fact they’re going great because this VIP client just asked for your business card. Win! So what’s the big deal? Well, you realise that in order to hand over your card, first you have to find it in your bulging, slightly torn wallet. You open it up to show receipts from years ago, sticky notes with random phone numbers, heaps of cards and maybe if you’re lucky some actual cash. After a while of searching you find your business card, hand it over and hope they didn’t notice that minor faux pas. If that sounded like you? Then pay attention because we have a little advice that will change your life.
Here’s the truth, a bulging wallet is super lame. It gets in your way, interferes with your style and to be honest my friend… it’s just weighing you down! Our friends from Bellroy agree and they had the same frustration in the early 2000s, so they took it upon themselves to do something about it. And so the Bellroy quest began – to improve the way folks like us carry.
Bellroy are the masters of slimming your wallet. But it doesn’t end there. Their product range has moved beyond pockets and includes pieces for your tech, work and more… right down to your keys. Because as long as there are things to carry, Bellroy wants to find better ways to carry them. Don’t believe us, see their full Bellroy collection here.
LEATHER CARD SLEEVE
Two words: functional and presentable. The Card Sleeve is the slimmest style in the Bellroy arsenal. It can be used as a business card holder, or even as a full-time wallet for those who have a black belt in slimming their pocket contents. The main section features a pull tab for easy storage of cards and money, while the outside pockets can be used for quick-access items. You don’t have to worry about wriggling into your pocket again to grab that worn out wallet just to hand over a business card to someone.
HIDE & SEEK LO SLIM LEATHER WALLET
Don’t let this wallet’s appearance fool you. This slim wallet is not only stylish and utilitarian; it’s pretty tough, too! You are going to keep your wallet for around a decade, so it had better be built well enough to take the abuse of everyday use. The Hide & Seek is for those who want more out of their wallet, while remaining true to existing aesthetics. Holding all of the money and cards you could need, it helps separate items you use more often from those that are important but needed less. The unique hidden flap means large bills can be concealed from view, while the flat pack storage section helps stack away cards in a secure location. Really cool, ain’t it?
