Collaborating with the hottest graphic designers and artists, Poketo's signature artist wallets keep your hard-earned cash cool. Featuring whimsical designs from artists such as Bubi Au Yueng, FriendsWithYou and DevilRobots, this California-based brand sells affordable designer wallets that are both functional and highly collectable pieces of art.
Like artist prints, Poketo's designer wallets are made in limited numbers -- usually about 300 pieces per design. Additionally, the brand has also expanded its line to include other artist-designed creations such as T-shirts, smartphone cases and wall prints. The sale of these whimsical creations not only helps support local artist, but it also allows customers to own something unique that lets them show off their personal sense of style -- an idea that is very important to many millennials. As a result, Poketo is the perfect spot for those attending Trend Hunter’s Los Angeles innovation conference to explore the future of art and design.
