Detective Conan Long Wallets Bring Conan, Haibara, and Kid to Banshu Leather
The lineup sells the series through its plot objects rather than its logo: APTX4869, the bowtie voice changer, and Kid's jewels are printed on cowhide, which puts the merchandise in the same props the story turns on.

Three Detective Conan long wallets are on sale at the PREMICO online shop, made with Asakusa Bunko in Banshu-produced leather. The Edogawa Conan model pairs blue-gray with tortoiseshell and diamond patterns showing the bowtie voice changer, keyhole, and wristwatch tranquilizer gun. The Haibara Ai model uses purple with APTX4869 and ginkgo leaves. The Phantom Thief Kid model prints his silk hat, monocle, jewel, playing cards, and dove. Each is about 10.5 by 19 by 2.4 centimeters.
The wallets use kata-yuzen, a technique in which each color is layered one at a time on the leather, and the motifs are raised three-dimensionally. The exterior is cowhide with coloring, called bunko leather in the listing, and the interior is cowhide and synthetic leather. Each wallet weighs about 180 grams and comes in a box themed to its character.
The leather is produced in the Banshu region. The listing says the surface has a stain-resistant coating, and the wallets are priced and stocked as of publication.
