Retail - Verona, New Jersey, United States
We were tired of minimalistic wallets that made it impossible to access cards and cash easily. We have obsessed over every single detail. This isn't just another wallet, it's the best wallet crafted for beauty and complete functionality. In the summer of 2014 while working in New York City, Amir had his credit card information stolen. Hundreds of dollars of fraudulent purchases were made using his personal information. After consulting his bank, they had informed him that credit cards were being skimmed all over the city using simple RFID technology and that he may have fallen victim to skimming. RFID blocking wallets prevent scammers from stealing your information. The tale of Futur wallets began years ago, when my sister Hanieh and I were growing up. Although we were eight years apart, we were very close. We shared a passion for beautiful design, and as we traveled the world experiencing a myriad of diverse countries and cultures, we were inspired to channel that passion into creating a product elegant in both form and function. Fast forward to 2015. While completing my second year of engineering school, I approached my sister contemplating the failings of today's minimalistic wallets. They just weren't sexy or functional! We put our heads together--me with my engineering background, and Hanieh with her understanding of business and materials science--and set out to create the FUTUR of wallets!
