I agree. In person, it feels like a cross between Togo and swift, depending on the age. Not hard like Epsom.
Holy crap you're right. The site is FLOODED with stock.hermes.com is flooding with stock today (the number of bags almost doubled!) so I found some new descriptions, including this suede leather: Grizzly calfskin
Find out more about Grizzly calfskin
Grizzly calfskin is a suede leather obtained by sanding the flesh side of the leather. It is produced from large skins in order to obtain a rustic, tough-looking suede. Its name indicates its appearance and the uses to which it lends itself, comfortable and sporty.
First appeared in the collections: 2010
Appearance: Velvety
Feel: Quite soft
Hand: Very supple
Change over time: Quite delicate as all suede; acquires a patina by the flattening of hairs; becomes shinier in areas most handled

Does anyone have any experience/tips for Sikkim (sikkam?) leather?
Thanks in advance.
I know its slouchy and soft but can it be worn in rain? how is it with scratches? can it be spa'd
thank you for your response !My Sikkim leather Double Sens (both sides same leather just different colours) has been frequently hit in rain. I try to wipe it down with tissue as soon I can and then dry naturally completely before I put it away (in a dust bag not box). Absolutely fine. Not sure if it can be spa'd - don't see why not.
Although I could probably store flat without, I keep a cotton-velvet cushion inside.
No way could I carry such a large 'shopper' all day in a heavier double-sided leather. Love it.
Here's the notes on Chevre Mysore vs Chevre Chamkila. HTH.Hi everyone,
I was wondering if someone could help me with the similarities / differences between Chamkila and Mysore.
I am familiar with Chamkila and love it... how does Mysore compare to to it?
Thank you.
