Cool Hunting

"Sustainability has always been integral to our philosophy," says designer Timo Weiland of his new line TIMO!. The eye-popping, graphic wallets (think pixelated scans and wild graphic illustrations) use eco-friendly materials such as recyclable paper, soy ink and post-consumer vinyl in their super-slim design.
"We wanted to create basic bi-fold and tri-fold wallets that allowed users to streamline their life with slim construction and small sizes," says Weiland. "Though they maintain simple construction, the composition of the patterns—graphic artwork, abstract photography, metallics, and other mixed-media prints—distinguish each piece as a unique work of art." It's a perfect fit for the no-fuss guy who still has an eye for the sleek and uncommon. Starting at $35, find a retailer near you at Timo. Another great find by our friends at Refinery, read more here.
