ONLY MI - Customer feedback brought to you by Mitsukoshi Isetan - | Stores 3 IC cards simultaneously, and can be used "while stacked"! A new card case that solves your problems.

As technology advances, new lifestyles emerge, and new products are developed daily to match them Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 1F = Men's Accessories is now proposing an "IC card case." With the number of IC cards owned by individuals increasing year by year, it's now commonplace to carry multiple cards. However, the key point of this new product is that it solves the dilemma of not being able to use them all in one place.

For example, if you put two IC transit cards of the same specifications (such as Suica or PASMO) into the same card case and use them, it will cause an error at the ticket gate. Therefore, you must either carry two IC transit cards of the same specifications separately, or take out only one card at a time when using it to pass through the ticket gate. However, this is very inconvenient and troublesome from the user's perspective.
In the same section, we received many inquiries about a pass case that could hold multiple cards of the same specifications and allow you to pass through ticket gates without errors. As a result, we created a card case that can store and use two or more IC cards of the same specifications simultaneously.


An IC card case that combines the skills and refined sensibilities of experienced craftsmen with the latest functionality.


This card case utilizes Sherry's "iClever" IC transit card switching sheet, which holds a domestic patent. By sandwiching "iClever" between the outer and inner layers of leather, and combining a surface that collects radio waves with a surface that blocks them, it becomes possible to use multiple IC cards together in one case. Furthermore, by thinning the leather to accommodate the thickness of the sheet, the case achieves a slim profile similar to that of a standard model. This ensures the same ease of use as conventional two-sided pass cases.
Starting March 2nd (Wednesday), Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 1F = Men's Accessories will be collaborating with six domestic brands. They will be exclusively offering "IC pass cases" that combine the skills and refined sensibilities of expert craftsmen with the latest functionality, available only at Mitsukoshi Isetan.
