Thank you so much Mimmy! I'm located in the U.S., but didn't see the bag on the Hermes website.
Yup, PM 31 is $2550 + tax. I bookmarked it before it was sold (someone else on this thread got it!), since H hides pages when there isn't stock available: https://www.hermes.com/us/en/product/herbag-zip-31-bag-H060300CKBP/
A "sorry this item isn't available" screen will pop up and you won't be able to add to cart, but you'll still be able to view the page and pictures.
Hoping others will catch on and start bookmarking when new and interesting finds pop up on h.com!
The H fairy godmother (aka my best friend) also just helped me find a 31, so hoping to pass the karma along~Hoping others will catch on and start bookmarking when new and interesting finds pop up on h.com!
How do you like the bag? I'm considering getting this as my first Hermes, but I'm concerned with the canvas body and ease of accessibility.
It's my first H bag, actually! Been collecting a lot of bangles and accessories up to this point, but felt like it was time to pull the trigger and enter the handbag world. I haven't used it yet, I just brought it home yesterday and am waiting for the work week to start to unwrap it and put my things in. Even then, I might leave the plastic sticker on the closure just because I'm a bit nervous (lol). Some of the others on here might be able to better talk to wearability and durability over time...
First impressions - the canvas is nice and sturdy feeling - though it's not a coated canvas (a la LV), so it definitely has the possibility of getting nicked or stained. I don't plan on babying it, but I don't think it'll show too much wear and tear for the first few years. I think that visible staining also depends on the color - mine is etoupe, so since it's darker I don't foresee dirt showing up as easily.
The closure takes a bit getting used to - the ring on the front of the bag goes onto the closure/buckle, then it's the flap that goes onto the closure/buckle and then two straps that go into the closure. I think as the leather softens, it'll be easier to get in and out of, but it was a struggle when I unboxed with my friend the first time around. Also, for some reason, it was waaaay easier for me to get it closed when the bag was on my shoulder than when it was on the table. To me, it's kind of like the Celine belt bag - you can wear it undone, but once you've practiced a few times it's not that much of a hassle. On the bright side, it's definitely secure - I can 100% see myself traveling with it.
Thank you for the feedback! I hope to swing by the store in the coming weeks and see if they have it in stock *fingers crossed*
Good luck!! Worst case scenario, you can always keep checking the website. The one I saw popped up around 10PM PST and was gone less than an hour later.
Herbag 31 is 1800 euro in Athens Hermes store . There is one more in stock . My hubby just got one yesterday>
Congrats on ur new bag, such a lovely piece!! And not to mention, ur hubby is so sweet to get u one
Am really loving my 1st herbag alot. Surprisingly the opening n closing is not too bad. I usually keep the flap close thou. It juz need some time before you get the hang of opening n closing it n after that it is rather easy. I dun baby this bag unlike my other bags. And it fits quite a lot.
Nice bag when did u got urs?? I also have been babying mine during this Chinese New Year. Have been getting use to opening and closing the flap. And I do agree with u, once u get the hand of it, it’s quite easy to open and close the flap...attached a pic of my baby
