Holstee Wallets The Delhi in Your Denims

[26/01/11] 

We're all trying our best to be earth-friendly. We keep the 60 odd empty beer cans from last night's “gathering” aside, to be turned into new washing machines. We study those colour-coded garbage cans in LKF, to decipher into which green glass should be thrown. We turn off our lights during Earth Hour (it's more romantic that way) and we even help fire stations do the right thing with their hoses.

Now you can scoop your dinars, dineros and dragon turtles (check out the old Stand Charter HK$20s) from wallets made from junk found on the streets of Delhi (if that isn't globalisation, we don't know what is).

Created by Mike and Dave Radparvar and Fabian Pfortmüller, Holstee's collection includes their newest items, wallets made from newspapers and plastic bags, as well as pendants made from scraps of acrylic from a Chicago sign maker, and classic t-shirts made from recycled plastic bottles. These truly unique fashion wallets come in grey, purple and blue, with ten percent of sales going to micro-lending organization Kiva .

That'll help you sleep at night.
