Hello everyone, it's been a while for me as life and going back to school after being a stay at home mom! I heard the herbal is a dust magnet. What are your thoughts? I've been interested in a casual bag.
 
I don't have that problem - the good thing is the canvas part can be detached and dry cleaned even if it does get dirty or dusty. I think it's an excellent school bag! I was thinking the other day that it gives schoolgirl vibes (I am NOT in school and left years and years ago! LOL). It definitely is a casual, chic bag. I love mine!

I had a question for anyone who has removed the long shoulder strap on their herbag.. How did u detach the chain from the corner? Do u just yank it out and is there a way to reattach it again? TIA

Hello!
Are there any recommendations for a base shaper and insert for the Herbag 31? The insert threads wasn't clear to me and there were more discussions for other bags.
Thank you very much for any suggestions!
 
I am so happy that I read the previous posts here! I got a Herbag 31 Retourné not too long ago and to my surprise, the piping in the inside matches the Hunter leather. I thought how it would’ve been so cute if the bag were in the Sellier style to show it off - but lo and behold, all I needed was to turn it inside out!

I might be late to reply, but I use Samorga inserts for my Herbags and find them very good. I like how tidy and organised my bags become! The “cup holder” is especially useful for me, even if I don’t have a drink inside my bag, I put my sunglasses case in that section!
 
Hi all, first time posting so please excuse me.
I’m looking for a water-resistant & practical day-to-day errand bag with secured closure, one that can fit iPad & A4 papers.
What’s your experience & opinion on the Herbag 31 with berline canvas?
How does the berline canvas & hunter leather hold up in the rain?
Petite ladies, does it appear too big?

I already own other Hermès bags, and I’m not sure about spending AUD$4k on a canvas bag (when fully leathered Picotin is about the same price).
But then I haven’t been able to find anything else that fit my requirements either :sad:
Otherwise, is there anything you would recommend? Water-resistant & secure closure is a must - confidential documents etc.
Thank you :heart:

I own 2 Herbags, the bigger size (I guess it's 39 but not sure actually). I am really tall, 1.75 and wear high heels and have a wider frame, so for me it's ok, petite ladies surely should go with 31 cm.


Secure: hell YES, if you close it properly which can be stressing, but you have that little pouch outside of the bag which is convenient and that little pouch on the inside that is tied to the bag, which is really convenient.
leather: tend to get pimples when in pouring rain, but these will go back once it dried.

The only thing I'd strongly recommend is buying an insert as the bottom of the bag is slouchy and so it won't look pretty and won't feel pretty. And I'd advice you to try it out as the way it has to be worn might be uncomfortably, I for myself changed the straps as these are stiff as nothing else. You can change the location of the straps from the middle to the outside of that bar that sort of "helds" the upper part of the bag, but that didn't work for me.
But overall, it's a great bag and I love both of mine dearly. In my opinion the most underrated bag tbh.

My first one saved me from getting pickpocketed in Paris. The person simply couldn't get into my bag and even the attempt cutting the toile with a knife failed. You'd see the scratch but nothing else. So it is pretty secure imo.
