The Hermès Calvi Duo Card Case in Black Epsom is a highly functional, “origami-style” mini wallet that expands upon the classic Calvi design by adding a dedicated secure compartment for coins or small essentials. As of early 2026, it remains a popular choice for those seeking a compact, all-in-one “cashless” accessory.
Core Design & Material
-
Material: Crafted from Epsom calfskin, a rigid, machine-printed leather introduced in 2004. It is celebrated for its scratch resistance, lightweight feel, and ability to hold its structured shape over time.
-
Color: Featured in Noir (Black), a timeless heritage shade that is particularly favored for professional settings.
-
The “Duo” Feature: Unlike the standard Calvi, the Duo version features two distinct pockets:
-
One open V-cut card pocket for easy access to frequently used cards.
-
One flap pocket with a snap closure that serves as a secure coin purse or for storing small items like keys or jewelry.
-
-
Hardware: Typically equipped with a central Palladium-plated (silver-tone) snap button closure.
Specifications & Capacity
-
Dimensions: Measures approximately 10.5 cm L x 7 cm H x 1.3 cm D.
-
Capacity:
-
The main pocket comfortably holds 4 to 5 cards; carrying more may cause the leather to feel stiff when new.

The additional flap pocket provides enough space for coins or folded banknotes without adding significant bulk.

Portability: Its slim profile allows it to fit easily into a jacket pocket or a small evening bag.
