The Slow Post

Curated paper goods, sent by snail mail.

Something worth looking forward to. Arriving by post.

There is something genuinely good about finding a considered envelope on the doormat. Not a bill, not a flyer — something made with care, something that arrived because someone thought you might enjoy it.

 The Slow Post is a Design Smith card subscription. Every other month, five original illustrated cards are curated and sent directly to you — different occasions, different moods, always a considered edit. The kind of cards you reach for first when you actually need to write something.

 We do the choosing. You do the writing.

What you receive

Each pack contains five illustrated cards with envelopes. Fully curated — no choices required, no decisions to make. Just good cards, arriving when you need them.

Why subscribe

Because a well-stocked card drawer is one of those quiet pleasures that makes life feel more considered. Because you always mean to buy cards and somehow never quite do. Because every now and then it is good to be sent something made with care.

 

As a gift

A Slow Post subscription makes an unusually good gift — particularly for the person who has most things and values the ones that last. It arrives six times across a year, which means it keeps on giving long after the occasion that prompted it. Buying as a gift? Just enter your recipient's address at checkout.

Managing your subscription

Your subscription is yours to manage. If you need to pause, cancel, or update your details, everything is handled through your personal subscription page.
