Space for Guys & their Hermès

[Tony Yang]

Hi guys...I've been informed by my SM that I've been selected to put in an SO order!
As I'm already waiting for an HAC40 to arrive as part of a previous PO order, I've decided to use the SO for a non-B/K bag.

As per my SM, the men's bags eligible for SO this cycle are as follows: Sac a depeches, plume, bolide 45, cityback backpack, and the cityhall briefcase.

I am leaning towards a SaD 38 in sombrero with brushed PHW but would like to hear your thoughts on this matter!

The colour and leather availability for 2018 can be found here: https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/help-special-order.925735/page-177#post-31682509

I love the Bolide 45 & Cityback! Is there a Barenia option for any of the SO this round? My dream is a barenia Cityback.

Sorry people- total mistake. Its an Hermes Kelly 40 in TAURILLON SADDLE not Togo! Its buttery soft! Amazing!

Did not see barenia as one of the options

You got so good taste! That bag is going to be so unique, subtle and elegant.
I’ve never seen this size before, must be perfect as a clutch

Thank you!

View attachment 3858251 Hi everyone, my SO experience was beyond amazing!! I truly hope each of you gets to experience it at some point.

The leather coffret, aside from housing the leather swatches and thread options, is a treasure trove of background information on each colour and leather Hermes offers.

I was bumped however that sombrero was not a leather option for an SO sac a depeches for this cycle.

Regardless, I was beyond thrilled that the 27cm SaD was available for order - I had always wanted this size for use as a clutch but had been told that it was discontinued in the regular inventory.

And so, after an hour of deliberation, I decided that for my first SO, I would create a sac a depeches 27 with single gusset in black togo with brushed PHW and gris mouette contrast stitching.

The combination is subdued but very Hermes in my opinion. The SaD has a lot of frontal stitching which will be highlighted handsomely by the GM contrast stitch. Additionally, the grey would complement the brushed PHW nicely.

Imagine this

It’s going to be one classy bag...

Beautiful! Is that a new leather?

Hey. I genuinely do not know. Its taurillon say is baby bull- durable but water is REALLY bad for it.


I am seeing the SM tomorrow again. The SA said she would find out the information for me when I see the SM. will let you know- unless someone on this forum knows?

 

[boulderv1]

Whoa, I've never seen this bag before! May I see how the inside looks?

Forgive my photography skills but here are a few more photos. The inside is super simple with a single large zippered pocket. There is a flap on the exterior back which hides a second pocket.

@navicular Congrats on the SO! I've seen a SaD 27 at a Japanese reseller store and thought it was the cutest thing! Fingers crossed yours will arrive sooner than later.

@Tony Yang Barenia is only available as push offers, like Box.

@perthhermes Congrats on your new bag. How nice that the lock is wrapped in leather! It looks like the new Barenia Faubourg leather that's supposedly sensitive to water?
