MIR Snap Wallets
Alongside client projects we also developed some of our own products at Almond Studio Seoul. One of them was the MIR wallet, with one design for cards and one for cash. These wallets feature a unique folding technique and are only kept together by the nicest snap button we could source in Seoul’s vast markets.
The original run was crowdfunded on a Korean platform, but we introduced more leather types and colors as the wallets kept finding new customers over the years.

The MIR wallets get their name from the flat patterns, which resemble old school satellites. Just like satellites, they can be folded into a compact and solid unit.
