A small update to a classic, well-loved wallet. 【Inspired by 1950s American Truck Drivers】
Born as a wallet for American truck drivers in the 1950s, it exploded in popularity among bikers in the 1960s. This is a mini wallet inheriting that “trucker wallet” lineage! It’s the staff’s most frequently used wallet due to its ease of use! “I try other wallets, but I always end up coming back to this one,” says a staff member. They’ve started using a second wallet in a different color, added a shoulder strap, and truly love this wallet!
【Classic and Practical Shape】
Thanks to the structure of a trucker’s wallet, all pockets – coin purse, card slots, etc. – flexibly expand to fit the contents. This flexibility accommodates both minimalists and those who want to carry many cards.
【Practical Coin Purse】
The coin purse, about the size of a card, is made of soft leather containing an appropriate amount of oil. It opens wide when pressed from both ends. The shallow bottom design also makes it easy to see and retrieve coins.
【IC Card Pocket on the Back for Tap-and-Go】
It’s convenient to keep your commuter pass, transportation IC card, or contactless payment card in the back pocket. You can go out lightly with just this wallet!
【Small and Not Bulky】
It’s only slightly larger than a card and fits in the palm of your hand. It won’t be bulky in your pocket.
【Unisex Design】
Traditionally, trucker’s wallets have a rugged image, but the [b3Labo] mini trucker wallet series features a modern, genderless design. It can be used by anyone, transcending the boundaries of men’s and women’s fashion.
【Color Variations and Aging】
The leather contains oil, so it requires relatively little maintenance. The color will deepen and develop a caramel-colored sheen.
Beige 33: A “leather nurturing” color. You can enjoy the aging characteristic of vegetable-tanned leather.
Red 42: Shows little color change over time.
Navy 62: The blue tones will gradually fade to blue-gray, and then to a dark gray, offering an enjoyable transformation.
Moss Green 72: Ages into a unique color mixed with a weathered, brownish hue.
Black 91: Shows little color change over time.
Please choose based on the typical aging examples.
【Care】
Recommended for both beginners and leather enthusiasts, this original mini trucker wallet is well-suited to the hand due to its moderate oil content. It’s made of well-balanced leather containing a perfect amount of oil, so it can be used for a long time without maintenance and will develop a sheen. The best care is to use and touch it every day.
