Nobody likes to carry a big chunky wallet filled with old receipts and foreign coins, so why would you. This beautiful minimalistic wallet fits what you really need, and only that. It is handmade from old vinyl banners from University of Antwerp. It has 3 compartments where you can fit a bunch of cards (I can fit up to 20 of them in there), a savings card of your daily coffee bar, a gift card for that beautiful boutique and even, only if you want, some paper money. And the best part... even when it's filled completely, it still feels light, thin and yet very robust.

Zoomed in on the materials

The main material of this wallet is repurposed vinyl banner material from outdated banners from the University of Antwerp. Although it is not an organic material (it cannot be composted) it is still an eco-friendly material option, be it for the reason that it is material that is saved from going to a landfill.

The edges of the wallet are finished with a cotton biais tape. Cotton is a widely used natural material, but definitely not the most environmentally friendly. Better alternatives would be recycled or organic cotton or Tencel but we weren't able to obtain such biais tape yet. 

The Obvious x UAntwerp brand label is woven with polyester yarn of which 50 procent is recycled. It's Oeko-Tex 100 certified, which means it's clear of any toxic materials and is safe for skin contact.
