Is there a Hermes 'Herbag' type purse with an easier opening? [perhaps magnetic]

[kate212]

I was thinking about getting a Herbag but don't want a purse that is hard/takes time to open. I know this is a long shot but I love the general design of the Herbag, just not how you open it. Has anyone ever seen a similar 'top' piece design anywhere? I would prefer a canvas body, but beggars can't be choosers, I know! : )

I've been thinking about having one custom made that opens magnetically but retains the design elements I like.

You might like this Daytripper bag by a Japanese brand, CaBas. I've been eyeing ordering one! If you're not in Japan, you'll have to email to order. But the body is made of Japanese sashiko cotton, and some have fabric bottoms (although some have leather). There's 3 different sizes too! The closure is similar to the Herbag, but seems easier because it has two handles rather than one so it's easier to hold while you're closing it, and because it only has the push studs rather than the circle insert thing on the Herbag.

Thanks!!! I appreciate the info and the pics. This looks very interesting!
