hello! i just purchased the herbag backpack and i have no idea how to remove the bottom portion of the leather backpack straps and move them over to the larger bag. can you all help?

i can't wait to use it but it's killing me because i can't disassemble this part of the bag. =(

thank you to anyone and everyone for helping in advance!!! <3
I haven't used my (vintage) Herbag in years. I pulled it out the other day, and I swear I couldn't remember how to disassemble it and switch the canvas bag from beige to black. Where-oh-where are my instructions? Yikes!
 
when I looked - herbags were readily available, in London. (though not in orange) They are not handmade bags. You can call the boutiques and ask them to let you know when they get one - though I imagine it will be more fruitful if you keep phoning them yourself.
 
Hi everyone, I just purchased a Hermes Herbag Backpack from eBay and it doesn't come with the manual for assembling the straps. Then I searched for it and found the thread about knocking down the straps and the handles here (it's one of the purseforum thread before). However, in that thread it doesn't say how to take off the the backpack straps. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks a lot :)
 
You need to pull apart or unscrew (I don't remember which) the metal cylinder that fastens the two straps together when you look inside the bag.

I don't know how to explain it, but this cylinder has some sort of "lid" that you take off that sandwiches together the two straps. Sorry I can't explain clearly without photographs!
 
Thanks for the reply. I've tried to open the metal thing on the straps by sliding it like the way we open the Hermes looping double tour bracelet but it doesn't work. I've tried to open the metal by pulling it up but it doesn't work as well. Pls anyone kindly advise on this. Thank you so much :)
 
Hello..

I am a HUGE fan of Herbag Zip 31cm. Would anyone happen to know the current price of Herbag Zip 31cm in Paris (Euros)? I read in this forum it was 1300 Euros, but a friend of mine said its 1550 Euros..
Also, would it be cheaper to get the bag in Paris's CDG airport?

Help please =)
 
Hi Ladies,

A few of you asked for the price of the herbag:
I purchased 2 yesterday from FSH paris, they were the last 2 pieces and the salesperson had to ask the manager if he could sell the last 2 pieces to me or not lol and they did.
These are 31cm, and each was for 1300 EUROS.

Here are a few pix:

Oh I love them! Is the second one Tosca? I want one in Tosca but my local H store doesn't have it and they don't know when the next one will arrive. And I don't travel recently...

Anyway, congratulations! Herbag is very functional and I'm glad Hermes brought it back!

Hi ladies. I am new to Hermes. I just bought a herbag stamp D, 1 black canvas and 1 beige canvas. but both canvases have pockets in the bag and after doing some reading in this forum, I am now getting more and more confused how to differentiate the old herbag and herbag zip.
How old is herbag to have 2 interchangeable bodies without the zip pockets?
How new is herbag not to have 2 interchangeable bodies?
 
Hello all,
Im finally getting my first Hermes (Herbag) from a local buyer which was referenced by a few of my friends. Could anyone tell me the easiest way to self authenticate it? How to tell if it's brand new/ used? I am very excited to get it but at the same time nervous as hell since I hear so many sad fake story. Thank you in advance.
