porte monnaie wallet

A wallet is perhaps the most perfunctory accessory any man owns; the least glamorous; the most abused.

... So it's about time that somebody really considered it.

Dollar bills are "paper" for a reason, the same reason that Tyvek skins houses: when it's not made of trees, paper can be tough sh*t.

Like other super-tough paper fabrics, the Porte Monnaie wallet is made of flash-spun high density polyethylene (with one layer of leather inside, for old time's sake).

That's perhaps why the Porte Monnaie wallets seem so impertinently clever...

It's minimalist, and handmade, and simple -- and it's tougher than the two-pound ham sandwich you're carrying now.

And yes, you're reading that picture correctly: it opens from the center like a collapsible laundry basket.

Most styles available now from Oki-ni.com. Price: 69 pounds sterling.
