In this article, we will explain how storefronts have changed and how the autumnHERMESWe will also introduce you to how to choose a bag.
On August 11th, the store will be in autumn colors | You can choose from both color and leather
From August 11th, the storefront of H3 VINTAGE Tokyo/Ginza store has changed to a layout that focuses on deep colors such as gold and bordeaux. The feature of this time is that you can compare not only the color but also the texture of the leather.
Lined up areKelly 28・32、Birkin 25・30、Bolide 27- Mainly standard models such as 31. In addition, Constance andPicotinAlso available in a small shoulder bag. In the summer, when I often used large bags, I changed to a medium-sized bag that fits my time around town.
The main colors are bright camel ``Gold'', grayish beige ``Etoupe'', and deep red ``Bordeaux''. We also offer black ``Noir'', deep green and olive colors, and ``Clé'', which is close to white. We have a variety of leathers with different textures, such as glossy box calf, supple Taurillon Clemence, finely grained (uneven surface) Togo, and firm Epson.
Buyer Kougen comments
“This time, I chose this combination because I wanted people to see not only the color but also the texture of the leather. When you put glossy leather and grained leather side by side, even the same color looks very different.”
Why do the same colors give different impressions? The answer lies in the texture of the leather
In conclusion, this is due to the difference in leather. Even though they are both Bordeaux, the way the light is received is different between the shiny boxcalf and the grained togo.
HERMESis a brand that has developed a wide range of colors, from bright camel to burgundy to deep green. At the same time, the appearance of the color also changes depending on the type of leather. Glossy leather catches the light and its color stands out, while grained leather gives off a calming impression as the light scatters.
While there are leathers that are still used today, such as box calf and togo, there are also leathers that are rarely seen in stores these days, such as ardenne and couchever. Therefore, some vintage leathers have different shades and textures than modern leathers.

Buyer Kougen comments
"You can hardly tell the difference between the leathers in photos. Shiny leather turns red when exposed to light, while grained leather looks calmer because the light is scattered. I think the quickest way is to compare them side by side."
Combinations that can be found because they are vintage | Leathers that are no longer made
For those who are not satisfied with the current line, we would like you to know about the combinations unique to vintage.
HERMESThe leathers that have been used include not only classic ones such as boxcalf and Togo, but also ones that are less often seen in stores these days, such as Taurillon Clemence, Epson, Swift, Chevre (goat leather), and Ardennes and Couchevel. Because the leather used differs depending on the era, it is possible to find color and leather combinations that are no longer made.HERMESThis is one of the reasons why it is chosen.
Even if the model number is the same, the color and texture of the leather will vary from piece to piece. When you find something you're interested in, the quickest way is to go to the store and check it out.
Buyer Kougen comments
``The leathers used have differed depending on the era, so in stores today there are products with combinations of colors and leathers that are no longer made.I think it's best to compare the texture of the leather before making a decision, rather than just making a decision based on the color.''

autumnHERMESHow to choose a bag｜In order of color → leather → size
Whether it's your first point or your second point. autumnHERMESIf you are having trouble choosing, we recommend narrowing down your choices in the following order.
- First, decide on the color temperature
- Next, narrow it down based on the texture of the leather.
- Finally, match the size to your outfit.
Even within the same brown color, camel-based gold looks light and bordeaux looks calm. Once you have decided on the color temperature, adjust the impression by choosing between glossy leather or matte leather with grain.
Shiny box calfs go well with formal occasions, while grained togo suits everyday wear. If you choose the size after that, it will not stand out from your outfit. The luster and depth of the color of the leather will change depending on the way the light hits it, so we recommend that you check the actual product.
