Ultra-Thin Long Wallets from Japanese Bag Craftsmen ATAO

Masculine Design, limo Monogram
One of my male acquaintances saw my wallet in person and fell in love with its thinness. He actually sold the 34,000 yen wallet he had just bought and went to ATAO to buy a new one.
ATAO does not have too many men’s designs, but the one he bought after much searching was the ATAO limo Monogram (unisex version).
This product is also a popular gift for men.
It is so popular a design that this wallet is rarely available for purchase, so he probably worked himself into a frenzy looking for it.
He purchased it from the online shop erutuoc, an official seller of ATAO goods.
The sticker is gorgeous and has a monogrammed design on it.
Any mending necessary post-purchase is also available for a fee. You can rest easy knowing that a support system is in place.
It measures about 9.5 centimeters by 20 centimeters, and weighs around 115 grams. It is made of PV materials and cowhide.
This design has a zipper on the back.
There are 8 card pockets in total.
This wallet is made out of different materials, but it is still thin! It is well constructed by the brand’s Kobe craftsmen.
Comparing to the limo gloss python I Have Used for 5 Months
Their sizes are the same. The material of the python (left) is a bit softer.
I have used this wallet for 5 months now, and I’ve gotten used to it to the point where touching the scales is not uncomfortable.
I use is like a normal wallet, but there are no scratches or stains that stand out on it.
About ATAO
- Using the zipper feels far better than expected, and it feels more like “tucking away” cards and money rather than “putting them in a wallet.”
- And, above all else, this wallets thinness and light weight are spectacular; even though it is a long wallet, it does not feel like it is in the way at all.
- I recommend this wallet even to people who are not fans of longer wallets!
I really am glad that I bought it! I look forward to continuing to use it for a long time!
