A wallet that only those who understand, understand. In other words, it's fine if only those who understand, understand. Due to the all-handmade production method, its market value is rare. A wallet that develops character the more you use it. When you see someone using a Whitehouse Cox wallet, which has tradition and a sense of luxury, you'll definitely be impressed by their refined sense of style. Purchased at Shinjuku Takashimaya for around 120,000 yen, but I'm selling it unused as I have no opportunity to use it since I'm using something else. Over the 150-year history of Whitehouse Cox, the company prospered as a manufacturer of high-quality equestrian equipment, such as riding saddles and reins, meeting the demands of the nobility from its founding. After World War I, the demand for equestrian equipment decreased dramatically with the spread of automobiles, so they also manufactured belts, gun cases, and various military items for the British army. A major turning point came in the 1930s. First, they manufactured collars for pets. Then, at the request of the British upper class, small leather goods such as cufflink cases, collar boxes, and shaving kits, as well as fashion-forward items such as travel bags and luggage, were added to the existing product line. The materials used for the items manufactured in that era were mostly bridle leather, which was often used for riding saddles, and making such items from that leather was a very innovative idea at the time. Whitehouse Cox has been producing in the same way since then. In the late 1970s, the main market was department stores and specialty stores within the UK, but by chance, New York designer Ralph Lauren saw a dog collar made of bridle leather and a carefully hand-woven mesh lead in the pet supplies section of the luxury department store "Harrods" and requested to arrange them into a belt for humans, which was then commercialized under the Polo brand and became a big hit. Hearing this rumor, numerous orders were received from buyers and designers around the world, and the market expanded worldwide, not just within the UK. The beautiful mesh belt made Whitehouse Cox famous. The design of the reins they once made for horses and the ropes used on sailing ships in the early 1900s are reproduced.
