Pouch "Zebra Hit" – Recycled · Beige · Zebra Print · 21 cm | Wouf

What makes zebra print a fashion classic – and why does it keep coming back?

Zebra print has appeared in every decade of fashion since the 1950s: Emilio Pucci used it in his early printed silk collections; Roberto Cavalli made it central to his house identity; it has survived grunge, minimalism, and maximalism without fading. The pattern is timeless because it is graphic without being geometric – natural in origin, optically powerful, immediately readable. WOUF takes it in beige and black: warm instead of stark, editorial instead of costume. A design with 70 years of proof behind it.

What does “Zebra Hit” mean as a design name?

WOUF names each design as a character rather than a product code. “Hit” signals intent: this is not a quiet companion, it is a first impression. The zebra pattern needs no explanation – it is confident enough to carry itself. In beige and black it stays adaptable enough to work in a structured tote or on a desk without fighting everything around it.

What fits inside?

At 21 × 13 × 1.5 cm, the Zebra Hit Pouch holds coins, cards, a lip balm, earphones, a charging cable, or keys. The slim profile makes it particularly useful as a secondary pouch inside a larger bag, or as a wallet replacement in a backpack – slim enough not to add bulk, structured enough to keep things found.

What distinguishes the Studio Collection from the Daily Collection?

WOUF’s Studio Collection uses the aluminium puller with personalised WOUF branding, a metallic logo, and the YKK zip – one of the world’s benchmark zip manufacturers, used by everyone from luxury houses to performance outdoor brands. The details are visible to those who look and invisible to those who don’t – which is exactly the point.

Is it waterproof?

The outer surface has a water-repellent finish – light rain and splashes bead off. Not submersion-proof, but reliable for daily use: damp hands, a quick shower caught without an umbrella, a wet table surface.

How sustainable is this product?

The polyester comes from post-consumer recycled plastic bottles; the print inks are Oeko-Tex® certified; the zip sides are also made from recycled polyester. WOUF produces 70 % of its products locally in Barcelona; the own atelier runs on up to 70 % solar energy. Packaging: FSC-certified paper, 100 % recycled plastic bags.

How do I care for it?

Hand wash in cold water with neutral soap – no machine wash, no tumble dryer. The Oeko-Tex® certified print inks hold their colour with gentle care. The zebra pattern stays sharp – that is part of what makes it last.

Does it make a good gift?

One of the better ones – useful every day, immediately distinctive, and in a print that has decades of cultural weight behind it. The sort of thing someone notices the first time they see it and keeps using for years. Information on bulk orders and corporate gifts is available in the menu on charlesandmarie.de.
