The point of the felt is to prevent the sangles from leaving indentations on the flap, and to prevent the flap from leaving indentations on the body of the bag. Also, prolonged contact between two pieces of leather may cause the surfaces to stick together, and then peel when separated.

These are the important considerations here.

I would say that your concern over stretching the sangles is unnecessary.
Do you limit what you put in your bag for the same reason?

If the sangles stretch a little, fastening and unfastening the bag will be easier and the I doubt, in use, the change in appearance would be negligible.

Do not worry - keep using bag and enjoying it - don't store it for long enough for any problem to manifest itself.

Random q since you guys are my style gurus. Any IG style accounts you follow for tips and inspirations?

I don’t have Instagram anymore, so I can’t remember many people, but here are a few that come to mind:

Hermès-specific accounts—
  • @designingrock (He and his partner have a pretty neat collection of watches and H goodies! His account might be private now that I think about it...)
  • @linlinlinlu (Love his watch collection! He has some cool Hermès bags as well, specifically his 1/1 “Grace Kelly” Kelly.:love:)
  • Michael Hormel (I can’t recall his Instagram screen name, but he has a nice bag collection and a very cute dog.:smile:)
  • @failingatminimalism
  • Bryanboy (I followed him less for his personal style content and more for his humour and fashion musings.)

General style accounts—
  • Luca Fersko
  • Wisdom Kaye
  • Lori and Marci Hirshleifer (These are both women, but a lot of the things they wear are very unisex. I also like their store on Long Island.)
I used to find loads of great smaller accounts by going through the following lists of users whose style I liked!

@880 Your kind words are truly appreciated, thank you so much! Honestly, I keep peeking in the box sporadically just to elicit a contented sigh! I'm hoping to wear it out this weekend, and I am literally willing the week away ASAP! Haha!

Already said I love your Kelly - but just noticed - does your vca match your birkin (!!!) or is it just light playing tricks on me and the vca is onyx?

P.s. your jewelry is on point!

I don’t usually hang out in this thread, but DH just purchased this jacket. It’s the Relax jacket in the Prince of Wales check. DH is tall and slim and it was a perfect fit!

Reference code H464014H85Y46

It’s currently on the French website, didn’t see it on the US website, but it is available in stores.

I’m glad to see that there’s a space here for guys and their Hermès! I currently own an Odyssee Terre duffle bag in Capucine and a reversible 32 mm belt in Orange Field.

I’m considering expanding my collection with more pieces that are suitable for men in these colorways. Are there other options in Capucine or Orange Field that you think would complement? My wife has the Mini Kelly Double Tour bracelet in Orange Field (rosegold), but the Mini version feels a bit too feminine for me.

As an additional note for completeness: She also owns the Mini Pop H pendant and the Mini Pop H earrings in Orange Field.
