Description
The Wingback Key Loop is designed to let you grab what you need and leave the rest at home. It replaces the traditional split keyring with a length of ultra-high molecular weight cord that’s 15x stronger than steel by weight, allowing your keys to sit flatter and more comfortably in your pocket. Both sides can be inter changed with our Key Cache for a versatile key carry system.
Machined from 303 stainless steel, each piece is built to withstand the elements. Corrosion-resistant and tough, it takes knocks, scratches, and daily use in its stride, slowly developing a subtle, lived-in character that tells the story of every adventure.

Reviews
Top quality, British built, real hand crated feel, weight. Perfect.
Disappointed with knurling of my unit. The knurling is finer and lower depth than in promo photos. Such variance in machining is unacceptable for that price
What if i buy key cache to combine with my key loop and the knurling will not match ?
Hi Eremei,
Thanks for getting in touch. The knurling pattern was recently updated to match the stationery and give a better feel overall. While we do our best to keep the imagery up to date, this one is on the list to be done so apologies if that caused any confusion with your purchase.
We're not wedded to the pattern so always good to get feedback!
Thanks,
Megan
Bought to compliment my steel key loop which is for a black key control. Looks great against the orange key control.
Hi Mark,
Looks so good! Thanks for taking the time to leave this lovely review!
Love all my purchases from Wingback, and continue to buy, great products made with skill and love I’m sure

Hi Ian,
Thanks so much for your continued support and the lovely review!
They are indeed made with love and skill :)
Having been delighted with my Wingback ball-pen and pencil, I ordered the Wingback key-loop expecting it to be made to the same high quality. Sadly, the knurling is not remotely as good as on the pen & pencil nor as good as the web-site images. It is relatively crude and will inevitably act as a 'file' on my car-key etc.
Hi Martin, Thanks for the feedback and sorry you're not happy with the Key Loop. The Loop, Key Cache and Flask have 1mm pitch knurling, whereas the stationery is 0.5mm. This is to provide better purchase on the wider dimeter products. It'll be an interesting think to test out having the smaller knurling used across all products and certainly something we'll try out. Let us know if you'd like to return the Loop and we can organise a refund for you.
Many thanks, Alasdair
The Key Loop is a winner. I’ve been trying all sorts of alternatives over the years, and I think I’ve got the solution for keys that works for me. I’m looking forward seeing how long the cord lasts for as my keys get a lot of rough use; but so far, so good.
Really pleased with my keyloop, a Father’s Day gift from my kids. Practical and gloriously tactile, I really enjoy the feel and heft of it. The brass is starting to weather nicely and develop an ‘aged’ patina. It might be considered a premium price, but the workmanship and material quality make it a worthwhile as a long-term investment. Would recommend!
I ordered this along with a key cache and a spare ring. It came as a jumble of components - even the braided rope wasn’t actually attached to the brass fittings. So I have to figure out how to put it all together. Both rings also marked. On the key cache no thought had been given to the presentation of the inscription so it just looks rushed. Overall disappointing given the price.
Hi Michael,
I don't tie the loops for customers to allow everyone to work out the right length and formation for their needs. If you need any guidance at all about getting started I'm more than happy to assist.
I'll get in contact with you via email to have a look at your inscription and discuss the key rings.
Best wishes,
Megan
I was looking for something that would sit better in the pocket over that of your regular loop ringed key holders and come across this company with their products and now I couldn't live without it! Everything from the presentation when receiving this to the look and feel just make me realise I have made the right choice in purchasing this. If/when I need a key holder in the future I will definitely be coming back to these for the next purchase. I would highly recommend to anybody with confidence they would feel the same as I do.
Awesome product and fantastic way to carry my keys!
I was looking for replacements for my keychain rings I broke for my car keys. I looked on YouTube for lists or recommendations for better alternates & found Wingback.
I believe they arrived in the time they were said to arrive & in good packaging. I was first a little nervous looking at the product, not wanting to mess-up cutting the fiber loop too short or ruining it. But it was quite easy to set up & has lasted months later pretty well. Very sturdy and slimming for my keys and car fob. As well as still providing me with easy access to everything in my key loop. And the brass component is very well made and allows me to easily take things out.
Overall, 10/10
Found it on YouTube from a reviewer by the name of Jon Gadget, and knew I needed it. Worked perfectly for all my keys, even the car. A+ text inscription.
Nice stylish and minimal solution that works perfectly with what I have
I have been trying several different key organisation setups over the past year or so and have never got it quite right. With the key loop, which I’ve combined with the key cache and a leather sheathed pictured, I think I may have my ideal setup!
Quality is superb, as was the customer service. Thank you Wingback!
Just what I was looking for a every day Carry for my keys A minimalist look
In my opinion one of the best key solutions out there... Not only great design but also exceptional functionality, especialy for key setups that include other items like tools or key finders. Im very happy to have found this one and i'll get me at least one more to have even more combining options..
Great job!
Perfect for my pocket. After having this, I feel bad for everyone who has a key ring in their pocket. Got mail I also added the cache to slip a 20 in there. Believe it or not, the other day I went to the store and realized I forgot my wallet at home. That 20 sure came in handy! 👍
Absolutely delighted with my brass key loop and I have rolled up $5 coffee money and put in the little container - all set for a lifetime of use. Much appreciated!
When I first saw the Key Loop I was a little sceptical about how much value it really provided. I can say without a doubt my opinion has been changed.
The setup needs a little thought to really get everything sitting to personal preference. After that, use of the Key Loop has been a pure joy, it feels much less bulky and restrictive in your pockets and can be moved/positioned much better than a key ring based system can.
I have all the stuff I had before it just feels like a finished set-up rather than work in progress. As per usual for Wingback; the quality is also exceptional and it feels like a very strong system.
For anyone that previously had the Wingback standard keyring, the knurled rod can be threaded on and adds a nice bit of extra dimension to the system too.
i am satisfied with the key loop.although i use it differently.i just added it to my keyring.have my phone number engraved on it so very happy with it.now waiting for my pencil with x artist last map suits me three well mechanical pens if the material is top quality .wingback keep it up and please keep surprising me.allen i hope you solve the input problem because that is annoying .good luck mister alasdair
I had a wingback wallet in the past so know they pride themselves on quality. I had the black steel key loop via Kickstarter. From having several keys including a chunky car fob, house alarm fob, air tag fob…it was quite a bulky set of keys to fit in my jeans pockets.
The key loop is quite simple. I have my keys on one end of the loop and my fobs in the other end. Everything that keeps those two together is simple yet very strong and really well designed and made.
I’m no longer having to try and adjust how they sit my pocket. The house keys don’t jangle. Everything just does the job.
I’m really pleased with my investment. I’m sure some people could pick holes, but as a customer who’s paid my money knowing what I’m getting, I’ve not got any gripes. I’d recommend it other people, and also keep a close eye on what they in the pipeline as you know it’s going to be a very high standard.

Unpersonalised pieces leave us in 1 to 2 working days; personalised pieces are made to order and leave in 1 to 2 weeks. UK delivery is by DPD and usually adds a day or two. International orders travel by FedEx and arrive 2 to 7 days after dispatch, depending on where you are. Anything that includes a pre-order piece ships together, on the date shown against that piece.
No. On international orders, import duty and tax are calculated at checkout and paid by us before the parcel leaves England. Nothing is owed on delivery and there is no paperwork to complete.
Most pieces can be engraved with initials, a name or a short message — add the inscription on this page before you add to cart. Two things change when you do: your piece is made to order, so allow 1 to 2 weeks before dispatch, and because it is made for you it cannot be returned or exchanged.
Yes — you have 30 days from delivery to change your mind, no reason needed. Email hello@wingback.co.uk and send the piece back; you cover the return shipping and we refund your original payment method. The exception is personalised pieces, which are made to your specification and cannot be returned.
Yes. If anything fails through a fault in the materials or the making — whether that is next month or in twenty years — we repair or replace it. Wear, patina and the marks of use are not faults; they are the point. The full terms are on our Guarantee & repairs page.
Our materials are chosen to wear in, not wear out. Brass darkens with handling into a patina unique to you — polish it back to bright whenever you like. Steel and titanium keep their finish with almost no attention, and leather deepens in colour as it is used. This ageing is character rather than damage, and each product page carries specific care notes in the Wear and Care row.
About us
Since 2014 we've been blending technical engineering with traditional craft to create refined tools that are guaranteed to last a lifetime. We design every product ourselves, from a studio in London's iconic Oxo Tower.
The metal is machined in England, the leather hand-stitched in London, and our waxed cotton bags made in England. A few pieces are made overseas, by specialists who do that particular job better than we could here, and where that's the case we say so on the product page rather than leave you guessing.
Wherever a product is made, it's designed here and carries the same guarantee. If something stops working as it should in normal use, we repair or replace it, however long you've owned it.
