Good video. You forgot to mention Barenia leather which was the original leather used by Hermes to make saddles. This is my favourite leather with Box at Hermes. There is also Veau Butler, usually offered in Sable colour, which looks like Tadelakt leather (shiny and smooth). All heritage leathers at Hermes which make them the most valuable for resale.

Wow! You are definitely the connoisseur of Hermes leathers! Thank you so much for enlightening us with that info. I will do more research on it and see what I can find. Thanks for supporting the channel! xoxox

Again...VERY informative!!! I bought some raw python leather about 11-12 years ago and I've never gotten around to making anything with it. (I also bought some hair-on cow hides to perhaps make a tote or such at the same time.) I know that sounds kind of random, but I have a genetic creative streak. My 2nd great-grandfather was a shoemaker and further back in that line were a series of coppersmiths and silversmiths...but I didn't know that when I started making jewelry from copper and silver. It was "calling out to me", so I took some classes. (I also sew quite well, and intend to get back to that in retirement.) My mother has a silver bracelet that is handmade. Other than being handed down through her family, I don't know much more about it...but I'm going to make a pattern from it and recreate it so that it fits me. I DO love the quality of Hermès! Of all the top-level designer bags, they speak most to me...but there's something inate within that makes me want to try to make my own SLG's. I'm not sure I'm up to a handbag.

You can go into the store and ask an Sales Associate to see their leather book. In the book, you can see and feel every leather they have. Even if they don't actually have a bag in that leather you can experience a small "swatch" of the leather. 😊

Thank you so much for this video! Where would evergrain calfskin fall? Is it swift? I am considering a Jypsiere mini and they seem to come only in that leather lately.

Thanks for sharing your question. I checked on Purse Forum and it is very similar to Swift leather, a bit more floppy but also very luxurious to touch. Hope you get your dream bag!

Amazing video ! Very helpful! BUT why Hermes bags get really damaged in the corners? Witch leather age better In birkins?

@evelyneveryday

2 ай бұрын

Good question! I think because the corner of the bags is a high contact point so they get worn out easily. I think goat or box leather would be my choice.

Very informative! 👍 Investment value aside I like the Epson leather. 😊

Epsom leather is one of my favourites too! It is very tough and scratch-resistant in my opinion and experience (I have a wallet made from it).

What about Volynka (Russian) Leather? Hermes did a limited edition creation of bags in the 2018 / 2019 timeframe. The bags were a HAC, Plume, Bolide, and I believe an agenda.

Hello! I struggle to agree with you in some points. You are right, that Swift does not hold its value that good, but because of such videos and influencers, saying that Epsom is so durable and scratch resistant. Swift and box, as well as Clemence are waaaay better when it comes to restoration because of minimal finish, Hermes is able truly restore the leather instead of just painting Epsom. And if you for whatever reason scratch Epsom on the main body of the bag, Hermes will not do anything with it, whereas with Swift it is possible to get rid of scratches. So long term Swift is much better than Epsom, but people do not think about it and quality of leather, they ready to pay for plastic finish for the illusion of durability.

Thanks for your wonderful insight. I do agree that the leather may be "enhanced" to increase its durability... and undoubtedly, Swift leather is so luxurious to touch that I can understand its appeal. For me, if I were to own a Kelly, Box leather would be my first choice.
