Made in tribute to the iconic Matterhorn, I was inspired to create a unique wallet that recalls its first ascent. Designed specifically for alpinist photographers, this wallet holds cards, notes, and a set of 3 memory cards, making it a practical choice for capturing and storing all your memories.
But what truly sets this wallet apart is the center stitch, which follows the path of the very first successful attempt to reach the summit of the Matterhorn. This special design detail pays homage to the bravery and determination of those early alpinists, and serves as a reminder of the rich history of this beloved mountain.
I created this wallet during my first year in school, as a custom order for a friend. I was fully in charge of the idea and design, and this marked my first attempt at hand stitching. It was a challenging but rewarding project. Whether you’re an alpinist yourself or simply have an appreciation for the history and beauty of the mountains, this wallet is sure to be a treasured addition to your collection.
