Thank you so much you guys!! Hermes is a little dangerous isn't it? I always thought the bags were super plain, or overplayed, but this was the one that caught my eye. Amazing when it's on, it's SO very refined and beautiful. Simple? Yes, but also perfectly so :)

This is the first H bag to ever catch my eye! And then I fell in love with all their bags! I love your taste in bags!

Right? It was the only one where I was like ohhhhhhh, ok, yeah I could do that. Top handle small open tote with a long strap option is my favorite silhouette. Chanel doesn't make one! So then I was like, dare I look at H? :wtf::no: And here we are.

So the ones I did get are swift, which of course is a beautiful soft leather but the structure is a bit floppy. Has anyone tried the fourbi in a toolbox? Would this help with some structure?

By the way @TraceySH, I use a Divide and Conquer insert on mine (try looking for her from Etsy). She's really popular here in TPF. Mine is a swift toolbox and it keeps the shape of the bag.

Perfect! That's what I probably need. Thank you so much for the suggestion. I suppose swift leather is meant to be floppy and sort of "puddled" but I do like my bags more structured. Hopefully this is nit indicative of its ability to wear well?

Swift is surprisingly hardly. I had been using it nonstop for a year already and it still looks like the day I bought it. When not using though I always keep the handles up because I noticed it started to fold on that area if I kept the handles down.

Thank you for responding to that, yeah, I wondered since it was so slouchy really. The bags I did get were new, but from a reseller (I really wanted etoupe) so it's not use that is making the swift soft, it just IS soft. I appreciate that, and also appreciate that it doesn't wear out either. This is my first foray into Hermes as I've said, so I am still adjusting to the aesthetic (I am mostly Chanel and Dior), but am not drawn at all to the B or K? I really like the toolbox specifically!!

I use a D&C insert in my Swift Toolbox (26, Prune) and it's great for daily use, but if I leave it in, it starts to make a mark on the bag. So I store the bag either empty or with soft stuffing.

I ended up getting a "Senamon" bag organizer off ebay, it shipped quickly from Turkey. I had to turn it inside out and cut off a couple of the weird pockets, but it seems to fit perfectly! I cannot believe how much these things help give structure back to the swift leather!

I just wanted to verify if the Toolbox comes with a lock and keys. I’m interested in getting one and I was talking with my SA over email about it and he said it didn’t come with the lock and key, but all the pictures I see have them.
