# Unconventional Tri-Fold Wallets This Three-Fold Wallet Opens and Closes in a Non-Traditional Way By Jen Chae | Published 2013-06-19 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threefold-wallet References: [en.pinkoi](http://en.pinkoi.com/product/1WM0qzeo) A three-fold wallet usually opens straight horizontally, but this one by Taiwanese designer ideosolab works a bit differently. Instead of the tri-fold flaps opening up on both sides of the middle ID compartment, the FUUN wallet opens one flap vertically and the other horizontally. When completely opened, the wallet resembles something along the lines of a Tetris piece. The wallet has a [zippered coin compartment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neocraft-wallet-collection) in one of the three sides, while the other who laying horizontally side by side have cash and card slots. Unlike traditional rectangular wallets, this [tri-fold wallet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pc-folder-wallet) wraps up into a [small cube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldy). The folded wallet displays the coin pouch on its outer surface so that you can grab change without opening up the entire wallet. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 15% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Non-traditional Wallet Designs:** Opportunity for designers to create wallets that open and close in unconventional and innovative ways. - **Compact and Space-saving Wallets:** Opportunity for wallet manufacturers to create wallets that fold into small cubes, providing a compact and space-saving solution for users. - **Functional Wallet Features:** Opportunity for wallet designers to incorporate features such as zippered coin compartments and easy access to cash and card slots. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Accessories:** Opportunity for fashion accessory companies to create unique and innovative wallet designs that cater to consumer preferences. - **Retail and Consumer Goods:** Opportunity for retail companies to offer compact and space-saving wallets as a convenient and stylish option for customers. - **Design and Manufacturing:** Opportunity for designers and manufacturers to collaborate on creating functional and practical wallets with innovative features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [RFID-Blocking Origami Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-wallet.md) - [Digital Folder-Inspired Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untitled-folder.md) - [Sleek Colorful Card Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallet-30.md) - [Protective Fan-Style Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shuffle-wallet.md) - [Sleek Minimal Contemporary Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pioneer-wallet.md) - [Multi-Purpose Cooling Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carbon-fiber-rfid-wallet.md) - [Folder Icon-Inspired Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pc-folder-wallet.md) - [Multifunctional Magsafe Wallets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mag-flip.md) - [Triple-Folding Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-series-mini-trifold.md)
