Bag Inserts List: New Updates post #4,032

[Antje_MUC]

@Antje_MUC that does look way too small, almost like it should be for the 29. Did you get any more information on the sizes?

I ordered an insert for an Evelyne 33 specifically. I asked upfront if they could share the measurements. 7RP refused to do this, but promised that the insert would fit my bag nicely. I found the insert way too small for an E33. I sent them the picture you have seen in my previous post and asked them if they send me the right size. The brand manager Diane insisted that this is the correct size. I then found a user who send me the measurements of her E29 7RP insert. We noticed that there was hardly any difference in size. I again presented the finding to Diane and she still insisted that she sent me the right size. As it became clear that I would not get an insert from 7RP that would be a nice fit in my opinion I asked them to return. Starting the return also involved many discussions but was finally possible. Please bear in mind that they usually do not accept returns as the inserts are made especially for you when you order.
I wasn’t happy at all with the way how my complaint was brushed off over and over and would therefore not recommend buying from them to my friends.

Thank you dear Antje. That's really helpful!

If anyone else has an Evelyne 33 with a 7RP insert that doesn't mind sharing pics and/or measurements, it would be a good reference.

It does look too small. This are not inexpensive inserts. It’s beautiful but it’s too small. How can they see the picture of it in your bag and thinks it’s the right size. I am really surprised because I have had a good experience with them before.

Yes, I agree. Fortunately they could be convinced to take it back. I would have rather had a 7RP insert that actually fits my Evelyne 33 as the insert was nice. But after this experience I have the impression that they don’t have a well fitting insert for Evelyne 33.

I just received my MaiTai for my garden party. The label says Birkin 35 for Garden Party 36 so I guess it would fit both. It’s beautifully made with gorgeous stitching and fits well. I paid for the expedited shipping and it came in less than a week. It’s definitely better quality than my Samorga insert. I think I still prefer 7RP because it can be washed and has great colour selection but Mai Tai is really beautiful and much better priced comparatively.

I just ordered inserts for my Kelly 28 and Birkin 35 through Handbag Angels in the Midnight Blue colour. Based on the rave reviews which mention quality of product and fast shipping, and overall cost (it cost me $96USD or $140AUD for both including express shipping), it seems promising so far.

My inserts shipped a day or two after I ordered them and it took about a month to get to me (in the US).

They look beautiful!!

I was thinking to order from Mai Tai as well. How long did it take for them to arrive? The website says to expect significant delays.

Oops Forgot to quote you. See above!

Just ordered another 7RP insert Bleu Azur for my K28 retourne Feu Togo. (I think the interior blue will pop in side the Feu color).
I find that for the less structures Hermes bags I'd rather use a 7RP insert. I know they're VERY pricey, but so is the bag.
I store my bags (K and Bs) upright in the dust bag with these inserts in them and I find it helps much more than just a felt insert.
(For my more structured bags like a Chanel Classic M flap, a Samorga organizer is just fine and does the job of protecting the interior leather)

received my Maitais, I have to say I prefer them much more than samorga which is really stiff. The k25 fits super well.

Hi everyone, I’m looking to buy an insert for my K32 retourne that will help keep its shape...keen to try 7RP but the price point keeps putting me off...
Can someone confirm whether the MaiTai ones are firm enough to help keep the bag’s shape? From some reviews it looks like the linen liners are more malleable?
If anyone has comparison or advice regarding these 2 specifically for retourne bags I’d love to hear it!
Thanks in advanced! ☺️

My 7RP came from my Evelyne. I would not normally spend so much on an insert for an Evelyne but I needed a good colour match due to the perforation holes and it wasn’t available through Mai Tai. I am very happy with it. My most recent bag insert purchases have been 7RP and Mai Tai. I like them both much better than Samorga - IMHO better quality, functionality and construction.

I use both MaiTai and https://www.etsy.com/listing/122902..._query=Kelly+32&ref=shop_items_search_1&frs=1 inserts for my K32 in Clemence leather. She is 4 plus years old and still looking great.

I have a K32 retourne and a MaiTai insert that I love. I will say that the MaiTai inserts are more similar to liners than “shapers” - they fit perfectly but are not stiff at all. If you want to keep the shape of the bag I would look for a stiff felt organizer or maybe 7RP. I personally like my K32 a bit slouchy!

Thanks for the suggestion! I’m very keen to try them out

Thank you! This is super helpful and confirms my suspicion. I do love the K32 slouchy too but just wanted something I can keep inside for storage as well just so it doesn’t collapse on itself. But the slouchy look when worn is definitely

I emailed 7RP to try and ask for a bank deposit but it’s been 3 days with no reply...wonder if anyone has had experience with bank transfer to 7RP? It’s just I have a EUR account and would prefer that than use PayPal with crazy fees....
