May 2026. The new greenery grows deeper, and the sunshine gradually begins to blend with the early summer air.
It's a suitable season to tidy up your surroundings and re-evaluate the tools that will accompany you in the coming days.
May brings auspicious days such as "Ichiryū Manbai-bi," "Taian," "Mi no Hi," and "Tensha-bi,"
which you might want to observe as milestones for welcoming new things.
Among them, May 4th (Monday) is a particularly memorable day in May,
as it combines the Day of the Tiger and Tensha-bi.
A new wallet or card case isn't just a replacement;
it can also be an opportunity to quietly organize your life going forward.
Instead of using it right away,
put money in it for a few days to let it settle, then choose an auspicious day to start using it.
Such a small ritual is also one of the joys of welcoming a new item.
Why not choose a leather item that suits you now,
in line with the changing seasons?
With ITTI's wallets, featuring high-quality materials and functional beauty without waste,
make quiet preparations for the lucky days in May 2026.
