Yorkshire-based fashion brand launches new range of hacker-proof travel wallets

A Yorkshire-based fashion brand which specialises in creating innovative accessories is launching a Kickstarter campaign for its new product range.

Vanacci, which manufactures all of its products from its base in Lower Wortley, Leeds, is launching a range of customisable hand-made travel wallets via Kickstarter in a campaign which will run for 30 days from Thursday 31 May 2018.

Following earlier success of its hacker-proof wallets, the travel version also features its popular RFID (radio-frequency identification) blocking protection, ensuring that hackers cannot access contactless cards through the wallet.

The Vanacci travel wallet can also be tailor made to each customer, allowing them to choose the shape, materials, colours, leather and linings. There is also an option to engrave the wallet for an extra element of personalisation.


With a focus on style and sustainability, the Vanacci travel wallets are made from cork and sophisticated paisley lining, with a variety of leather or vegan options to choose from.

Having previously launched nine products via Kickstarter, Vanacci holds the title as the company behind the most successful crowd-funding campaign in the design sector in the Yorkshire region.

The company recently exceeded its initial pledge on its Carbon Exo wallet range campaign by more than 2000%.

Since launching its popular fragranced jewellery line, Lockstone, which increases the life of cologne by seven times compared to on the skin alone, the brand has developed wallets, cufflinks, watches and sunglasses.

Founded in 2014, Vanacci is renounce for its British craftsmanship and Italian design flair, every product is handmade at the company’s headquarters in Leeds.

Headed-up by managing director, James Whitfield, Vanacci consists of a tight-knit team of designers, engineers and fashion professionals with more than 20-years’ experience in the design industry.

Commenting on the launch of the new Vanacci travel wallets, managing director, James Whitfield said:

“Following the success of our previous collections, we’re delighted to be extending the product line to offer stylish yet durable travel wallets to accompany our customers around the world.

“We love to keep exciting our customers with new concepts and hope the number of customisable options will enable people to exercise their own creative flare”
