Thank you.. May I know what years are they? I got a 2008 Evelyne 29 but noticed it doesn’t have that print on the leather piece of the shoulder strap, so just wondering….
One is 2020, one 2022 and one 2023 so all pretty recent as I didn’t start buying H until 2020.

I got a prelove Evelyn pm from 2014 (R stamp) also has the same print as it was in pretty good condition.

Maybe the 2008 one has faded since it maybe rubbed against when carried often?

Thank you for the information! No it doesn’t seem faded… it’s in excellent condition and it’s really clean and well maintained, the logo print under the clasp strap is in good shape.. so I don’t think it’s faded.. it looks like it’s never there.. got it from Fashionphile so I kind of want to trust it… but just wondering whether the ones released in earlier years all have that print on shoulder strap…
 
Does the leather piece on your strap look like this (rectangular & elongated vs. rounded)?

I did some quick research and apparently the straps designed like this don't seem to have the logo.
Some more seasoned owners may know more details.
Thank you! Yeah mine look like this… I checked with Fashionphile and they told me 2008 ones don’t have the stamp… or replacement straps ordered also don’t have the stamp…

Oh wait I misunderstood… no mine is the round type… the leather piece…
Hmmmm, that seems wrong for Fashionphile to have told you that. I have seen MANY 2008 straps, and even earlier years, that clearly have the stamp on the leather part. If you are saying that your strap has the rounded leather piece, then either it must have rubbed off. Or for some strange reason (if it's a replacement strap) it didn't get stamped, but I still find that kind of hard to believe that Hermes would miss that in QC.

Now they are telling me from end of 2010 early 2011 they start to print logos on shoulder straps……….

Yeah that's still false unfortunately.
I did a quick 5 second search, for example, and you can clearly see this example from 2006 has the stamp:

Hope you find the answer you seek. Seems like you are not entirely happy or sure about your purchase, so I would just return it and start from scratch with another bag.

Yeah… thank you so much… I might just do that… it was in such great condition… so sad…

A few years ago I got a replacement strap for my vintage barenia Evelyne. It came back with nothing stamped on it, on either end. It’s the kind that ends with round leather pieces.

Edit: Sorry, I meant to quote @aria0714!
