Thanks! It's a great piece, certainly my favourite form the collection. Super light, soft and comfortable and the 3D knit adds a real depth to the print.
The blue/green jacket is a nice piece too.

Thanks! They have such classic cuts and timeless designs.
I just wish I had the endless budget to dive deeper into more of the collection each season
How do you like these?
I’ve been enjoying this forum for some time, but never posted before.
However, I have bought this new Cityback in a black Taurrilon Maurice and the zip in the back is to a separate compartment in the back panel. You could store an iPad Mini, but it’s just not big enough for an iPad Pro 11”. The bigger pocket inside the main compartment does fit an iPad Pro 11” with pencil and keyboard folio.
The backpack also fit’s my MacBook Pro 13” with Apple’s black leather cover.
For size comparison, it’s a Smythson Soho notebook in the back pocket. It’s convenient for things like this but could also be useful for a phone, some papers etc.
It’s my first “real” bag although I have (had) dozens of other briefcases and backpacks and it’s absolutely fabulous. I’ve never had so many compliments on a bag. And nobody realizes it’s a Hermes and it’s price.
The Taurrilon Maurice leather is very nice (as are all Hermes’ leathers), it has had some rain (I try to avoid it, us an umbrella etc, but sometimes it’s unavoidable) and has withstood that well. It’s obviously not been soaked and when I’m inside it gets a quick wipe down to dry it.

Yeah it's strange that we don't see the zipper from the inner side..
Now that is real quiet style at its best. Cognoscenti will no what it is, but it's not vulgar swank.
Pleased to read that you are so happy with your step into the Hermes waters.
It's also possible to squeeze in a 15" MBP with cover (at least the newer ones with Touch Bar). I do it practically every day.
This backpack is my all-time favourite bag, or at least most worn; I bought a plombe taurillon cristobal one as soon as it launched and one in black maurice last spring.

I really like the plombe very much and if I would have to choose it would be really hard.
I was in the Hermes Store and I wanted to see the Cityback IRL. Get a sense, feel etc. Online they only had one with a blue or green zip, so I had prepared to wait for months before a new model without colorful zip in plombe/noire/navy would be available. But in the shop my SA came with this one, it came just the day before in! Noire, beautiful leather. Lucky Me!! But it is even €500 more expensive then the baseball model. According to the SA it’s because of the new model and the Maurice leather.
I was wondering how the Cristobal leather is compared to the Maurice, they are both Taurillons?!
Cristobal has a smaller grain and feels thicker and a lot more rigid compared to the thinner and slouchier Maurice.
Cristobal also has a more matte appearance, so Maurice wins in black.
