When you think of Bellroy, you think wallets—but the brand is now branching out with the launch of its first ever card phone case for the iPhone 6.
As a master of making compact carry-all wallets, Bellroy sought to create a phone case that would make it easy for people to go about daily activities, while bringing the quality that it delivers with its wallets to a phone case. The Bellroy phone case is available in two styles—the 1 Card and 3 Card—that will hold either one or three cards at a time.
The introduction of this card-carrying phone case from Bellroy is in line with a move many consumers are making to declutter their wallets, or be rid of them entirely as phones and apps become more capable.
