Wanna be fashionable and “go green” at the same time? If so, this is your ultimate retro accessory. These cassette wallets were first introduced in Tokyo a few months ago, and were created by Italian designer Marcella Foschi. To all the die hards out there, note that each piece is unique and is handmade with real cassettes from the 80’s and 90’s! The wallets are available at designboom.com and price varies between $ 39.00 and $43.00. Be kind, rewind.
Leave it to Japan and Italy, yeah? Fucken brilliant. When Thurston Moore declared that the cassette was the greatest medium/format in the history of the world, I don’t think he even fathomed where Foschi and Co. were planning on taking things. Be kind, rewind indeed.
