The soft and fluffy feel of the shrink leather fits comfortably in your hand, and the exquisite design keeps the keys in place when you put them inside. And the biggest feature is that you can see the contents at a glance and it is easy to take out. This smart key wallet, which boasts outstanding practicality, was created by the developer, Mr. Isaka, based on his own experience as a way to collect all the keys and driver's licenses needed when going out by car. After dozens of prototypes, an X-shaped structure was developed that eliminates waste in the gusset. It seems that the patent acquisition was smooth because there is nothing like it. It is truly a product that embodies the "aesthetics of subtraction".
Mr. Osaka says that the idea of making the product beautiful without losing its shape has been devised since the prototype stage, but it took a lot of skill to make it a reality. We worked together with a couple of craftsmen who run a leather goods workshop in Rakuhoku, Kyoto, to make repeated adjustments. The meticulous and reliable assembly and the beauty of the stitching also reflect the careful work of the craftsmen.
