Chariot Bands
As you navigate through the page, you'll discover a harmonious blend of creativity and functionality. A minimalist approach to solving a problem of Dwyade Wade who challenged us to create a better way to carry his money and essentials. By collaborating with a textile specialist S. Wissler we were able to bring this to life.

The Challenge
BETWEEN KEYS, CELL PHONES, AND OTHER ITEMS THAT WE CARRY EVERYDAY, THEY CAN BECOME LOOSE AND BULKY IN WALLETS THAT IS OFTEN UNCOMFORTABLE.
The Research
CRAFTING PRODUCTS WHERE THE ELEGANCE OF DESIGN INTERSECTS
WITH THE SCIENCE OF SELLING PRODUCTS.
The Solution
DESIGN AND FUNCTIONALITY; AN ADJUSTABLE ELASTIC BAND THAT CAN HOLD FROM TWO CREDIT CARDS TO 200 OR MORE CURRENCY BILLS. CHARIOTS BANDS HELP US CARRY THE ESSENTIALS. LESS IS MORE AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT MOST SIGNIFICANT DESIGNS HAVE BEEN REFINED TO SIMPLICITY. WHICH IS ALSO GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. A MINIMALIST APPROACH TO EVERYDAY ACCESSORY.
