Founders Club didn’t begin with a business plan. It began with two brothers, Audric and Gilles, sitting at a small desk, arguing over tiny details that no one else would ever notice. Edges, textures, curves, the way a piece of leather should feel when you first pick it up. We weren’t chasing a trend or a quick win. We were chasing that feeling of “this is exactly right.”

We have been building things together since we were kids, selling Prime drinks, trading sneakers, always creating, always trying. Not because we wanted to run a business, but because making something of our own felt exciting. It still does. Founders Club is simply the first time it all clicked into one idea that felt bigger than us.

Our first card holder was shaped by months of sketching, adjusting and quietly obsessing over what we felt was missing in everyday carry. Wallets were often bulky, loud, overly branded and none of it felt honest. So we designed something that did.

The tiger embossing engraved into the leather is inspired by Edo-period Japanese art, capturing quiet movement and subtle energy. The deep forest-green leather takes cues from the understated elegance of vintage sports cars, with a warm burst of orange inside. The tiger flows in one uninterrupted line across the wallet, alive and present, but never shouting. Just character, craftsmanship and intention.

No flashy logos. No gimmicks. Just a piece made with patience, purpose and care.

Designed in Antwerp, built from what we genuinely love.

Founders Club is two brothers trying to bring that same feeling, of holding something real, considered and quietly powerful, to anyone who connects with our story.
