In-The-Loop 18 and 23

[sibsib]

Love seeing all of your lovely bags and hearing about your experiences. As a fan of the In-The-Loop bag (the bucket shape, not the belt bag), I thought a dedicated thread would be nice.

So this is a space to share photos of your ITL, store sightings, experiences with wear and usability over time, comparison of sizes, and general chitchat about this design.




I love it for its simple and elegant lines, discreet design, and capacity. I think it looks especially gorgeous with the sides completely folded in, like so:






Although it does make for a very cute and high-quality tote when needed:

I enjoy the versatility, the ease of the bag, and the capacity of the ITL 23.

It looks good almost empty, it looks good stuffed to the brim with things and even with an umbrella handle peeking out, it’s easy to throw on and throw around, and it’s delicious to carry (and to smell, I love the smell of Clémence). I take it on errands, I take it to cafes, I take it on ski trips, I use it on flights— such a practical and lovely bag, which adds sparkle to everyday and special moments alike.

And in all of this, as a newer and less popular model from Hermès, it feels safe to carry in a big city in that I won’t be targeted for my bag. The closure is another matter.

Finally, as a lover of tiny and structured bags, I find that it also expands my styling horizons and creativity without being too bulky and slouchy for my comfort.

ITL 18 in orange is my first H bag, bought last month at my local store. I've not used it yet as the weather here has been terrible and with the walk on my commute it would get wet and ruined. I do keep getting it out of the box for a sniff though!

This style jumped out at me as soon as I saw it, amd when I tried it on I was on love. I really like that it is a small bag but with handles big enough to sit over my arm.

I'm baffled why this bag doesn't get more attention, it's absolute perfection as far as I'm concerned.

What a lovely orange and outfit! I also don’t understand the lack of hype, but hey, more for us!

I recently carried my new ITL 18 in vert vertigo on a work trip. We were walking back to the hotel after dinner and one of my companions said she wished she had brought a scarf. I then whipped an h stole out of my bag and everyone was so surprised. It's like a Mary Poppins bag 😂

I love my ITL 18 and 23. Bought the 18 in January visiting my daughter; just purchased the 23 on a work trip. They are so easy to carry and like someone else said, it is like a Mary Poppins bag - holds so much without looking like it's overflowing. Long time lover of the Picotin, and I think I like the versatility of the In The Loop even more.

I bought a vert comics 18 and I love it. I'm glad it's not everyone's favorite, as a previous poster said, more for us Loopies

Has anyone tried putting a shoulder or crossbody strap on this?

Not yet, but I have seen it done on Insta and looks cute!

Bought a strap to turn In-The-Loop into hands-free.
