The story
About 28 Degrees
We're a small Amsterdam brand trying to do one thing well: elastic wallets that are slim, handmade, and built to live with.
It all began when…
I was looking for the perfect solution when constantly overflowing wallets were just not slim enough for my pockets. I needed a design that was not only sleek but also versatile enough to adapt to different occasions. Whether I was heading out for drinks with just a few cards or needed all my essentials for daily use, I wanted a solution that could adapt to both scenarios. After experimenting and refining my sewing skills, I finally created what I was looking for: the elastic wallet.
The next step
Over the last year, we've been bringing elastic to photography. Our latest creation is the elastic camera strap. When I first got my Fujifilm X100S a few years ago, I started using the default strap that came with the camera and realised that it was restricting my movement. I'm quite active when photographing, I bend and stretch for unconventional angles, and the strap wasn't flowing with me.
What we care about
At 28°, we prioritise quality by carefully selecting premium materials and employing meticulous craftsmanship. Our wallets are handcrafted in small batches in the Netherlands. We partner with European factories for premium leather, fabrics, elastic, and printing materials, that lets us adapt quickly to new designs. Our wallets are not only stylish and durable, they align with your love for clever, colourful designs.
