Double Cardholder | Fire-hose

The Elvis & Kresse double cardholder is made from genuine decommissioned fire-hose. Previously deployed in active duty for up to 25 years, fighting fires around the UK, the hose softens with use but never loses its strength. If you want to protect your business cards, the hose will come to the rescue… And if, like Elvis, you don’t like to carry a bulky wallet in your trouser pocket, you can carry all your credit cards and enough cash for a night out in vintage sleek. Fear not – your Contactless card (if you have one) works right through the hose.

If you choose the personalisation option, this is achieved by laser etching directly into the fire-hose on the inside flap of the Card Holder. We recommend not more than 20 characters. The font used is Times New Roman.

Brand	50% of the profit is donated
Production	Made in the UK

Since 2005, Elvis & Kresse have been saving raw materials, transforming them into luxury lifestyle accessories, and giving away half of their profits to charity. For example, Elvis & Kresse uses the leather scraps from Burberry in the United Kingdom, material that would otherwise be discarded.

Ethically produced: Elvis & Kresse bags are ethically made in England. They pay their employees above a real living wage and are an accredited Living Wage Employer. The label has its own production location and this is a certified social enterprise as well as a founding UK B Corporation.

Eco-friendly: Elvis & Kresse makes bags from niche repurposed material. They collect 15 different waste streams and reuse them. From fire hose to leather waste to tea sacks. The full list can be found on their website! The label also purifies their own water and is building a fully circular water purification system so that no water leaves the site. In a few years they hope to be completely self-sufficient with their own water. All packaging is made by hand in their workshop in Kent. Also made from reused materials, such as old printing blankets and parachute silk.

Locally produced: The collections are made entirely locally in England, from local materials.

Good cause: Elvis & Kresse donate 50% of their profits to charities. Their charity partners are the Fire Fighters Charity and Barefoot College.
