A Wallet That Can Only Be Made on Sunny Days

Just because it’s a small wallet, we won’t compromise on usability or materials.
"Parmo" is a model that reimagines the compact wallet beloved since our founding, tailored to modern daily life.
The catalyst? A customer request: "I want to store banknotes folded in half."
Instead of just making it small, we designed it to hold banknotes, cards, and coins comfortably while fitting in the palm of your hand.
A lightweight wallet that fits today’s increasingly cashless daily life was created.

Leather to grow with: "Margot"
We selected "Margot", full-tannage Italian leather.
The firmness and suppleness when you hold it, plus the color and luster that deepen the more you use it.
Hands that touch it daily, light, humidity.
As you spend time with its owner, it gradually changes its appearance, growing into a leather unique to that person.
It’s not just the beauty of being new—the time you spend using it becomes its charm.
That is the Margot leather.

Waiting for a sunny day.
Parmo has another distinctive process.
Exposing cut leather pieces to sunlight.
This is KATSUYUKI TANAKA’s unique process, used to enhance the leather’s structure and guide it to beautiful aging.
But because sunlight is required, this isn’t a step you can do any time.
You can’t do it on rainy days.
You can’t do it on cloudy days either.

Wait until it’s sunny.
If we only considered efficiency, this might be a step we could skip.
Even so, to deliver leather that grows more beautiful, we craft it following nature’s rhythm.
Parmo is born from a different timeline than mass production.

Small, but enough for daily life.
Banknotes fit folded in half, and it also has space for cards and coins.
It’s about 3cm thick. It fits in the palm of your hand and slides neatly into pockets or small bags.
It’s the size you naturally reach for on weekend walks or days when you want to take only what you need.

Completion starts when you start using it.
Parmo isn’t the most beautiful wallet on the day it’s finished.
Touch it.
Carry it with you.
Expose it to sunlight.
Use it every day.
Through these repeated moments, the leather’s color and luster deepen, gradually changing into a look unique to its owner.
When the artisan finishes crafting it, one step is done.
And it’s the user who nurtures what comes next.

Born waiting for sunny days, growing with its owner’s time.
Parmo is a wallet made to enjoy even those moments.
