The Australian accessory company Bellroy makes some of the sleekest, minimal everyday carry gear around. Their wallets, bags, folios and pouches all look great and are made of high-quality leather that will develop a really nice patina over time. They also have a good range of color options so you can match them to your outfits or keychains.
With the Bellroy Key Cover and Key Cover Plus, they’ve now added to their lineup a sleek new way to hold your keys. These bifold leather holder fold open like a wallet and are designed to snap shut securely, keeping your keys secure and organized within the holder. They hold two to four standard-sized keys for a slim look, and can even accommodate your car key or fob keys for a super-slim option.
One of the things that set these new holder apart from similar options like the Jibbon Key Organizer or Orbitkey is their hinge design. Rather than swing your keys out with a push, they use what they call a “flipper mechanism.” This lets you flick them out, select the right key and then put it back into the case in a smooth single-handed motion.
It’s a really clever feature, and the fact that it’s so easy to operate means it should make these a really popular option. They’re available now in a variety of colors and two sizes (Key Cover, Key Cover Plus) so you can find the right fit for you.
