The All Herbag Questions Thread

[mrswidjaja]

Hi,
I am purchasing a Herbag without the "stopper". That is the oblong leather part inside the bag. I have attached a picture. Can you please advise on how this can affect the functionality of the bag? Thank you!

i have a herbag. while i did not actually attempt to remove the oblong leather portion as you have indicated in the picture, it seems to me that without this oblong leather bit, the hermes metal round logo stopper will fall through the back? i can't be 100% sure, but looking at my bag, it seems like that would be a likely scenario.

are you purchasing from a reseller? better see the bag in person prior to purchase?

It's the new herbag, that's how they call it now because the original herbag was discontinued few years ago.

Can you change the canvas on the new herbag? How do you clean dirt? Can you take it to the Hermès to get it cleaned? Thank you

I just bought an orange poppy herbag zip 31 last month and I took her out for the first time today. I wore black top and pants and no color transfer whatsoever. I really love it and i got lots of compliment.😊 In my opinion, photos don't give justice to this gorgeous bag, it looks really pretty in person. It's bright and it makes me smile just looking at it.😍 I'm almost 40 so I think an orange or a yellow herbag would suit you! One more thing, I know some people find it hard to open and close the flap and it can be a pain especially if you are in a hurry. Good thing it has back pocket so what i do is, I put my iphone 6splus and my cards on it so when shopping I don't need to open the the flap. So far I am getting better on closing and opening the flap so it doesn't really worry me. Hope this helps and good luck deciding!

I am looking towards purchasing that sane color but I can't find any on the website. Did you get yours from the store?

Prestige H, this looks fab! Thanks for the picture. I am now convinced I should get another with a different colour handle so that I can have four potential look as well.

yeah, may I ask if the new herbags, sold at Hermès can be switched too? That held me back from bying one as - as far as I understood - they mad the body not changable any more?

Wounderfull herbags btw. I envy all of you!

I unwittingly purchased my vintage Herbag without the stopper. The round metal part slips back when it's heavier but never slides all the way off. When it's not as packed it doesn't really make a difference. If I was crafty I'd fashion my own stopper.

from what i understand, the new herbag does not have a changeable canvas body i had to look for months with resellers to find a old herbag thats unused.

Thank you for your answer! I was afraid hearing that... So I am going the reseller route for my herbag. Thank a lot!

Not crafty at all but inspired by my son's art supplies I created a stopper for my purse with a thin sliver of cardboard and gluing strips of H ribbon on the front and back. Does the trick perfectly.

Has anyone had experience dying the plain ivory canvas a more interesting color?

Should I keep the Blue marine rouge h herbag? It's a navy canvas with burgundy red leather top. Am undecided with the color as it's not the bright color that I'm looking for.

I say keep it if you still like it and can see yourself happily using it - especially if there's scope for you to get another bright coloured one. However, let it go if you just feel like you're 'settling' for what's available!
