Over the past two decades, Retro51 has crafted the Elite Traveler, a leather bifold that included the mini-Tornado ballpoint pen. Now, after a hiatus, they’re back, ready to impress once again but with contemporary features.

The Modern Traveler is manufactured by our friends Pularys using genuine leather, their aluminum case with RFID protection and quick card release lever, plus the Tornado™ Elite Ballpoint pen in a complimentary color. Stored in a small pocket, you’ll always have a writing tool handy when you’re on the move or want to capture spontaneous brilliance.

With its blend of quality craftsmanship and practicality, the Modern Traveler remains a timeless accessory for the everyday professional.

Miles ★★★★★

The leather feels broken-in from day one, and I love that the pen slot is angled so the mini ballpoint doesn't bulge against your cards. It's slim enough to slide into a front pocket without looking lumpy, which is exactly what I was hoping for after years of bulky wallets.

Riley ★★★★★

The pen slot holds the mini ballpoint snugly, and the bifold still closes flat even after a week of daily use. I’ve missed this design—it’s compact but somehow fits everything I need.

Aurora ★★★★★

The leather feels even richer than the original I carried for years, and the bifold lays flat in my back pocket without bulging. Sliding the mini pen in and out is satisfyingly smooth, like it was never away.
