I am not a heavy poster (more of a lurker) but I have been using heavily this since I picked it up last weekend and have been in love. Additionally this is a fairly new bag I haven't seen much about on the forums so far and wanted to do some sharing as I feel like it could be very usable and functional for folks who might have similar preferences as me.

A bit about me: Day to day, I prefer an easy to access crossbody for an active lifestyle and my Evelyne has been my day to day go to for several years now.

I'm loving the Saut Hermes 25 because:
  1. It's easy to access but not so huge you are rummaging around.
  2. Holds the essentials and then some (Without stuffing I've gotten my my bose headset, tissues, kindle, card holder, two cell phones, keys in all at once)
  3. The strap is comfortable and adjustable for crossbody and shoulder bag wear (I'm 5'3)
  4. Great for walking - One of the reasons I use my Evelyne so much is that I do a ton of walking and this is very comfortable for that too
  5. Has a hinged flap for a little added security although so far I haven't used it that way so far - The hinge makes it optional but not required.
Three ways you can wear it: (1. pocket out, 2. flap open and out, 3. flap closed)

Anyway thanks for letting me share my enthusiasm! Also loving the deep blue! (I saw it in black, red, gris perle and understand it also comes in barenia fauborg but they didn't have that one).

Thank you so much! And wow, your description is so close to me I did a double-take, down to the Bose headphones/tissues/card holder/etc. Almost exactly what I would've put, in fact that's how I tested my last bag at the store before buying it. I travel and walk too much for my headphones not to fit in my crossbody.

I also didn't realize the hinge could be used that way, very good to know!

Super cute! Do you know if it comes in other sizes, and can I ask what the pricing was?

I completely agree with everything you've stated catin, and when my Barenia Fauborg version comes out of it's box I expect it will be in constant rotation. I believe @lanit has the bleu nuit version and is a fan as well. Some have expressed a preference for a more monochrome coloration but I've come to appreciate the equestrian reference in the hinge; I understand from my SA that because of the technical difficulty in executing that hinge, H tasked its more senior craftspeople with making this bag.

Thanks so much for the pics and the review. I’ve been interested in this bag since I first saw pics online but so far have not seen one at my local H. I’ve wanted a crossbody bag with an easy access flap opening and looks like this may fit the bill. Is it much heavier than the Evelyne? I was wondering if the hinge mechanism made it a bit heavy. Thanks again!
