Does anyone out there in the Hermes world know of the Kelly Travel bag. Have one? Price? Functionality? Share thoughts!

Is this even more impossible to get through Hermes? My internet search yielded such little results!

Wow, how is she carrying that and another h bag, and those heels?! I always wondered what a K50 looked like in use,

Chevre de Coromandel or Jhansi will gently slouch a tiny bit at the corners over time even in a Sellier bag, but my personal view is that they still look fantastic even when they reach that point. Here's an example: https://www.1stdibs.com/fashion/han...er-palladium-hardware-janefinds/id-v_1298903/

Is Hermes using CDC now? I thought they use Mysore right now. Very interested in learning more about chevre as it' my favorite leather. I am planning to order chevre Kelly next if the H Gods allow.... but I do not want slouch on a sellier. That sounds awful to me. Just my preference to have stiff sellier.

Chèvre Mysore will also bend a bit at the corners, although a little less, and this is what you are more likely to be able to order if you are planning to SO rather than go resale. I prefer Mysore as it's a bit less shiny and lacks the very visible spine.

They are using Mysore right now. I have not seen CdC in production. I think it is gorgeous in a sellier K. Again, you might get that little "bend" because chèvre can get battered, but it should remain structured if the bag is not overloaded or knocked around (and we know you are good to your bags IF!). My biggest issue with chèvre is that banged-up look on the edges but I believe it is avoidable.
Let's see some of those chèvre selliers, we know they are out there!
