image.jpeg I hope everyone is well! I was a bit skeptical of the straps at first too...but of course the impulse buy bug bit me the other month I got offered this strap that at first I said "what's the big deal, I have a crossbody strap for my Kelly." But took the plunge anyway and I am so glad I did! Here are the specs for those who are wondering or are on the fence: this strap is black swift with gold hardware with the Barenia insert for the luggage tag attachment. I think it is about 85-90cm. It is long enough to wear crossbody, and shirt enough that I can wear it on my shoulder without it hanging too low and looking weird. (I am 5'5"). Both are super comfortable! The Kelly is a 25cm, in Chevre, with brushed gold hardware. Both the shiny hardware on the strap and the brushed on the bag look fine together, as does the different leather types (maybe because they are both black). The tag doesn't get in the way wearing the bag. I took the luggage tag in to get my initials embossed and I'll report back when I get it back! Apologize for the dark lighting but it was evening time Price point was $1900. Yes....not cheap. But I really like the look it gives the bag and it was worth the impulse buy for me! I hope the info helps! Looking forward to seeing other straps and combos you all find!
 
For those of you that have the replacement canvas replacement straps - how have they been holding up and have you enjoyed them? I recently purchased a Bolide1923 and considering a canvas strap. I have to be honest I was a bit disappointment in how they feel, I thought they would have a bit more of a luxurious feel but they are rather stiff. I do have a few simple leather Fendi By the Way Straps, but feel I like the idea of adding an Hermes strap to the Bolide. Wanted to see how others who own the straps are enjoying them. Thanks!

I have 4 of these straps - 2 canvas, 2 leather. I absolutely love them. Extremely comfortable and adds just the right amount of fun to my neutrals. I’ve had the canvas ones for about 4 months now and they still look new. I do rotate my bags frequently though. I can imagine them looking perfect on your 1923. Hope this helps!

Wow, congratulations on owning such wonderful straps. Thank you for your input, it does help a lot!

I have a potentially very stupid question. I bought the cotton canvas strap thinking to use it for my kelly 28. Except... i can't get it on my K28 for the life of me! Did i buy the wrong size? Has anyone had the same issue?

the smaller straps wont allow it to go on certain D rings of several bag designs, my SA has shown me that while trying to fit a smaller strap (canvas) i believe it is the 2.5 cm width one, e.g. onto a TPM size evelyn ..

As I understand it (from the product details in le Monde d'Hermes 71) some of the 25mm straps have small clasps (oval opening) and some have large clasps (circular opening). Do you know which one your SA demonstrated?

My SA told me about the issue. It will only fit the new mini Bolide. Even the SM didn’t know what ‘petite’ in the description meant when she ordered it. Sorry to hear that...

It won’t even fit Evelyn TPM. Evelyn TPM has normal D ring. I believe It will only fit the new mini Bolide.

I found some pictures to show the difference between the sizes of the clasp. The one you got is supposed to be same as the mini bolide clasp.
