Since then, whenever I choose gifts for friends or people close to me, I naturally turn to A&S. When I shop, I care deeply about \u201cwho made it,\u201d and I often choose works by makers I already admire. The creators selected by A&S align perfectly with my taste, and I\u2019m always inspired by them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I first became interested in this wallet after an older friend showed me her A&S wallet, which she had been using for many years. I was immediately drawn to the round, button-like clasp (giboshi). It has space for cards, a coin case, and allows bills to be stored without folding them, all in a compact form. I thought it was incredibly practical.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n On a day when Ichiry\u016b Manbaibi (an auspicious day for new beginnings and financial fortune) and Tora no Hi (a traditional auspicious day associated with prosperity) coincided, I went to the Daikanyama store to buy it. Even before I started using it, I marked the occasion with a small good-luck ritual, and I still remember making the day I welcomed this wallet feel special.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because I often carry small bags, I use it frequently. It\u2019s genuinely easy to use and very practical. I keep receipts, my driver\u2019s license, and essential cards neatly separated inside. Over time, the leather has softened and become more supple, developing a richer character. The coin case has already settled in and feels just right to the touch. I really have nothing to complain about.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before this, I had already purchased a gamaguchi (clasp purse), and I switch between them depending on my bag or my mood. Sometimes I even nest the smaller one inside the larger one, like matryoshka dolls, and use them in different ways. A&S offers many wallet designs. I prefer this one \u2014 compact, yet with excellent storage capacity. Among all the leather wallets I\u2019ve used from different brands, this is what I eventually settled on.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n These days, some people no longer use wallets because of cashless payments, and others stop using them because wallets feel heavy. But I still love leather, and I love its weight. It may go slightly against the times, but I want to continue caring for it and keeping it close for a long time.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n My father also influenced this sensibility. Since I was a child, I\u2019ve loved leather goods because of him. He was passionate about leather and would let me handle his items, saying, \u201cThis is good leather.\u201d I love how leather softens and becomes more comfortable with use, and I find its scent soothing. Maintenance has never felt like a burden to me. I\u2019ve worn the same shoes for ten years, repairing them as needed. <\/p>\n Come to think of it, when I first met A&S owner Sonya, she said to me, \u201cYou\u2019re going to be quite a handful in your 60s.\u201d At the time I didn\u2019t really understand what she meant, but she might be right. I value loving good things for a long time and choosing them with care, so I\u2019m truly glad I found A&S.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"flexible_image_and_float_text","heading":"Marie Iitoyo\u2028","img_position":"right","image":{"ID":36545,"id":36545,"title":"marieiitoyo_profile","filename":"marieiitoyo_profile.jpg","filesize":374262,"url":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile.jpg","link":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/editorial\/myas_marieiitoyo\/marieiitoyo_profile\/","alt":"","author":"5","description":"","caption":"","name":"marieiitoyo_profile","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":36505,"date":"2026-05-29 09:11:39","modified":"2026-05-29 09:11:39","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1784,"height":1784,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile-300x300.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile-768x768.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":768,"large":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile-1024x1024.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile-1536x1536.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/arts-science.com\/en\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/marieiitoyo_profile.jpg","2048x2048-width":1784,"2048x2048-height":1784}},"comment":"","float_text":" Born January 5, 1998, in Chiba Prefecture.

\nBecause of that, rather than constantly replacing things, I prefer items I can enjoy as they age. When I buy something, the key question for me is whether I can love it for a long time. Naturally, I tend to choose simple designs over flashy ones.<\/p>\n
