In Swedish, Forsta means first, initial, or original — it’s the only name fitting for this wallet. Our first product to be fully sourced and manufactured in Sweden.
A Legacy of Leather
Modern Design Meets Heritage Feel
The Forsta's slim design allows it to maintain a low profile no matter what’s inside.
With four carefully designed pockets — two partially covered in the front, and two behind — you can comfortably carry 1-16 cards.
Lying behind these is a compartment we call the 'Junk Drawer', boasting plenty of room for cash or coin.
Get to Know the Forsta
Both minimalistic design and material integrity set the Forsta apart.
Swedish cattle are regarded as the world's best. That's why our wallet is made from a single piece of Swedish Veg Tan Leather, folded, then completed with two stitchings.
Sourcing from Swedish farms and manufacturing locally, we're intricately involved in the process from the start. This results in a leather wallet with unmatchable quality.

My new favorite wallet.
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a Forsta a few months before launch — and in the time I've carried it, I've fallen completely in love with it. There's something special about the quality of the leather. Even in a few months I've seen some beautiful patina, and I'm shocked how slim the wallet feels even with all my cards and some cash inside. I can confidently say, this is my favorite wallet I've ever owned.
Just opened this and i'm in love...
I just received this wallet today, and well to say it is amazing doesn't do it justice. I am obsessed with finding the perfect wallet. I've had everything from makr, to bellroy, to hardgraft and none really come close to this. This is a perfect minimalist wallet, it fits everything perfectly without feeling like things are going to fall out. I absolutely love it and will say this is as perfect as they come!

The forsta is the perfect minimalist wallet
The forsta is truly the perfect wallet. Unlike most minimalist wallets this wallet has a place for cash and receipt. I keep the wallet filled with six cards and a couple of bills and the wallet managed to stay very slim, slim enough to stay virtually invisible in tight jeans, The leather Quality is superb and I can already see a patina start just in the first week. I have a huge collection of wallets and after having the forsta i don’t see a need to ever buy a another wallet again

All good. Low profile. Light weight. Not long enough to accommodate US currency without folding

Awesome wallet but one flaw for me…
First off, awesome wallet with great craftsmanship and design. I had to knock a star off as US currency doesn’t lie flat. Needs to be just a touch longer which is disappointing as it wouldn’t add bulk and would increase its usefulness.

Good but not great!
I like the size and look but the quality seems lacking for the $80 price tag...

U.S. Currency Doesn’t Fit
When WESN advertises the Forsta wallet as featuring a “slimmed down cash pocket,” they neglect to mention that U.S. currency will not fit without awkward folding. This limits the Forsta’s to being a card-only wallet for American users.
